Linda Mary Jackson (b. 1950) is a fashion designer and artist. Having studied fashion design at Emily McPherson College and photography at Prahran Technical College, she travelled to New Guinea, through Asia and Europe, and worked for Parisian couture house Mia-Vicky. Returning to Australia, she met Jenny Kee in 1973. They formed a partnership through the celebrated boutique, Flamingo Park, in Sydney's Strand Arcade, with a shared passion for vintage fashion and a reverence for the artistry and skill inherent in the bespoke and the handmade. Jackson and Kee also connected through a deep love of nature, and the pair established a creative partnership that redefined the Australian fashion landscape. They famously showcased their work with the 'Flamingo Follies' fashion parades and collaborated with artists such as Peter Tully and David McDiarmid among others, before Flamingo Park closed in 1995. In March 2016, Jackson’s collaboration with Kee was showcased in the National Gallery of Victoria's exhibition 200 Years of Australian Fashion; and in 2019 the Powerhouse Museum, Sydney, staged Step Into Paradise, the first retrospective of their work.
