NEW YORK (Reuters) -Bob Mackie, the fashion designer and costumer who has outfitted celebrities like Cher, Carol Burnett, Elton John and Taylor Swift, has sued JCPenney for allegedly using his name, signature and likeness without permission to sell apparel. In a complaint filed on Wednesday night in Manhattan federal court, the 85-year-old Mackie said he was astonished last month when JCPenney launched its “Mackie: Bob Mackie” collection though he had no involvement.
