Farewell, 1936-2024 Maggie T

When the news broke on December 6 that icon Maggie Tabberer had died age 87, a dazzling star went out in Australia's fashion firmament. Modest Maggie would have been surprised at how intense the outpouring of emotion was. The news of her passing was the lead story for every Aussie newspaper, social media site, radio and TV network. The loss felt by peoplewas palpable, for even though she was "a very old lady" - her words not mine - Maggie never lost her lustre. The stunning young girl with piercing sky-blue eyes and perfect bone structure from working-class Adelaide who then grew up to be a supermodel, TV star, fashion editor and savvy business entrepreneur was a national treasure and as was immediately obvious, she commanded a very special place in the nation's heart.

Even though I knew she'd had some health issues, the news came as a shock. I'd expected to be calling Maggie in a few months for our regular dance of persuading her to do "just one more shoot". She would always laugh and say "no, darling" but then a couple of calls later we'd be booking the studio. Maggie loved The Weekly and was always excited to be on the cover.

I phoned her daughters, Brooke and Amanda, who confirmed that Maggie had sadly died at 6am that morning. "Just five days before her 88th birthday. I feel numb," Brooke told me.
