Halston Love
Before Halston relaunched in 2008, I used to search tirelessly for a jersey vintage Halston. My obsession for certain vintage design like Lanvin, Dior, Schiaparelli and Halston, is severely deep and can be the cause of a heavy depression when there’s no outlook for conquering.
In the mid-nineties, several women in Manhattan also searched for the perfect, vintage Halston jersey dress. Only a handful of them succeeded in that search, and several women were left out in the cold with broken hearts. If a woman sets her mind on a certain item of clothing, she has no peace of mind until that item rests in her closet, whether she’ll actually wear it or not. If she wants it, she shall get it.
That said, when there is a certain piece from a different era on a woman’s mind, it’s not simple to find. And when a fashion house is part of our history, there isn’t much hope. After all, how many Schiaparelli coats are out there? One?
When Halston came back to life, I felt a shining warm feeling inside. That feeling was revived today when I found several iconic Halston pieces at half-price on Outnet.com.
Every woman that never got her vintage jersey, and all the others that do not wear vintage (and yet cannot fathom paying full price for Halston), can now unite and celebrate that the impossibly-chic Halston jersey is accessible for half the price.
Being on an emotional Halston roller coaster, I really cannot project what will happen for Fall 2010 when we’ll get to see how Marios Schwab has interpreted this never dying, iconic brand.
