CONCLUSION

Halston and Marisa Berenson

SOURCE

By the time Halston was thirty years old, he had won his first of five Coty Fashion Critics awards. He convinced Berdorf to sew his name in the labels of his hats---something that had never been done before for a designer. Newsweek called him the “best designer in America in 1972.” There is hope that the elegance and quality associated with the Halston name will emerge in both women’s wear and menswear. In the meantime, there is a report that Weinstein is working on a documentary about Halston’s life.
