Halston

"Halston: Inventing American Fashion" is the first monograph chronicling the life and influential aesthetic of designer Roy Halston Frowick (1932-1990).

Written by Halston's niece and confidante, the book traces his journey from a milliner for Bergdorf Goodman to launching his eponymous womenswear label in 1968.

Renowned for his minimalist and glamorous designs, Halston became synonymous with American fashion in the vibrant 1970s.

The monograph delves into Halston's rise to fame, his connections with socialites and celebrities, and his iconic creations, including the pillbox hat for Jackie Kennedy.

Through personal archives, early sketches, and interviews with key figures in his life, the book provides an intimate and comprehensive look at Halston's enduring legacy in American fashion.
