context_section_description: The curtain dress was conceptualized and designed by The Carol Burnett Show costumer Bob Mackie. The script originally called for the dress to be hanging off Burnett, but Mackie did not find it funny. He asked the art director for a real curtain rod and green fabric and made the dress on a mannequin. Burnett said that she came into costume fittings and when she saw the curtain rod she said it was the most brilliant sight gag ever.
