Gross, Elaine. Halston, An American Original. First Edition. 1999. Book and dust jacket are both in very good condition.

The irascible Coco Chanel once quipped, “Dior? He doesn’t dress women, he upholsters them!” She did not live to witness the Halston revolution in women’s fashion, but even she would have had to concede that he designed clothes that fulfilled, rather than dictated women’s fashion needs. This great and well-illustrated monograph covers both the technical and social aspects of Halston’s style, with anecdotes involving Jackie, Liza, Liz, Babe, and their ilk. The book includes many fashion illustrations by Halston’s great friend (and court jester) Joe Eula.     

“What am I doing? I’m giving women what they want. Women want to be comfortable and they want to look sexy. It’s as simple as that.”

--Halston
