Every year on the first Monday in May, it is the day of the met gala, a fashion event. Whenever this time comes, global supermodels, superstars and celebrities gather here, wearing Chinese costumes and interpreting fashion with bold ideas, which is a feast that many fashion fans cannot miss. This year's Met Gala was cancelled due to the epidemic, and many fans could only review the classics of previous years while regretting it, and Xiaobian suddenly found that Cher was worthy of being a red carpet pioneer while returning.
In 1974, for example, Cher walked onto the Met Gala red carpet wearing a translucent sequin feather evening gown designed by Bob Mackie. And at the 1989 Oscar dinner, a set of denim looks, with sequined suspenders in the same color as jeans, was cool. Proper is the most fashionable outfit of the 1980s
For example, at the 1988 Oscars, the see-through dress she wore was an "Oscar robe" created for her by Bob Mackie, a designer bob Mackie she had worked with many times, and her whole body was embellished with gems. The matching earrings, shawls and gowns complement each other and make this look a classic look for Oscar queens.
At this time, people who are not familiar with her may ask a question, who is she? What is her main business? Cher (Cher), real name Cherilyn Sarkisian, born may 20, 1946 in California, United States, is an American film and television actress and pop singer.
She is a legend, and her achievements in music, television and film include an Academy Award, a Grammy Award, an Emmy Award and three Golden Globes. Her development was tortuous, and she was born into a poor family in California. Cher's grandmother was only 13 years old when she gave birth to her daughter, and Cher's mother was also pregnant, and she repented at the moment before she received an abortion at a black market clinic, which allowed her to give birth to Cher. Her father was addicted to heroin, and her mother married several times and gave birth to children with different surnames. In her sophomore year of high school, Cher began her singing career in order to save money to learn acting.
At the age of 17, Cher met her first husband, Salvatore Sonny Bono, at a café on Hollywood Boulevard, the person who had the greatest impact on Cher's life and who changed her life. The two formed a choral group called "Caesar & Cleo", which was later renamed Sonny and Cher. Their first LP album held the top twenty on the Billboard album chart for six months. Another subsequent album, My Baby Shot Me Down, was the third-best-selling record in the U.S. and the U.K., and was a proud achievement in the era that belonged to The Beatles.
Cher's own solo album also did well, and her debut LP album made it into the top 20 of the billboard charts. And the list lasted for 6 months. "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" is another successful song by Cher, ranking in the top three of the sales charts in the United States and the United Kingdom with millions of copies. In 2011, Cher also became the only female singer in the history of the BILLBOARD Billboar chart to have won a single in every decade of the sixty years
Of course, her achievements go far beyond that, such as stepping onto broadway in 1982, competing on the big screen in 1983, and being nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress with director Mike Nichols' Silkwood, and winning a Golden Globe. In 1985, she was honored as a film queen at the Cannes Film Festival with Mask. Two years later, she starred in "The Purple House" and "The Suspect", and in 1987 won the Academy Award for Best Actress and a Golden Globe award for her convincing acting skills in the romantic comedy Moonstruck.
For a while, when Cher focused on business investment, many people thought that her influence in the music world had faded from then on, but in 1998, with a single Believe, she won the championship for 7 consecutive weeks in the United Kingdom, where the musical taste was uncertain, and returned to her hometown in the United States.
In 1998, "Believe" reached the top of the album charts in more than 25 countries or regions, and "Believe" became the best-selling album between 1998 and 1999, selling more than 11 million copies worldwide. On June 12, 2002, Cher performed a total of 235 farewell concerts called "Living Proof: The Farewell Tour", which became the highest-grossing concert ever performed by a female singer for $260 million (a record that was later broken by Madonna).
Of course, what is more enjoyable is that her dress is always one step faster than the fashion trend, bold and out of line. Until now, many of Kim Kardashian's looks are imitated by Cher, and she is a huge fan of Cher.
Kim Kardashian, in particular, has been imitating her Cleopatra-style straight black hair until now, and has also taken a series of hard photos of her idols in Harper's Bazaar magazine.
At that time, Cher could be called an ancient version of Lady Gaga, and it was deeply rooted in people's hearts again and again with bold and exaggerated but creative shapes. But she always leads the way, and the fringe element was worn by Cher in the 70s.
Cher's lifelong personality is frank, maverick, from music to film and television to dress led the 60s to the 90s, has been a representative of American pop culture for decades, and was named the No. 1 runway star of 50 years by Vanity Fair magazine with a strong stage style.
