This dress is an incredible piece of Halston history. Its twin walked the runway for the Resort 1979 show and the original sketch appears in one of the Halston books and it has the added provenance of the dress that was lent to and worn by Emmanuelle Chriqui in 2002. This is classic Halston from his main label couture line. It is incredibly chic and sexy and one of two important Halston pieces I have for you today. This is an incredible example of his work from this time period. 

This is an amazing couture Halston dress that is a very rare and special find. It is entirely cut on the bias and utilizes his signature minimal seaming. Halston defined how woman dressed in the 1970s and these jersey dresses that he did were tremendously flattering to the body. It is also insanely sexy with the cut out at the front that leaves your stomach bare. The fabric is a beautiful and very light black silk jersey that moves and drapes fantastically. The neckline is scooped with a piped edge that extends up and behind the neck where it hooks into place. On either side of the scoop at the front the fabric extends into panels that create a halter shape. The panels curve down on an angle and secure into the sides of the waist. This leaves the middle part of the stomach bare and open. The panels are then gathered into the piping at the top and wrap around the back in a low curve. The entire back is completely bare and exposed and it is so sexy. The skirt flares out from there and it has a ton of movement when you move. It is spectacular. The jersey is very fine and light and it is cut on the bias and there are yards of it in the skirt. I love that he cut the sides of the skirt slightly longer then the front so you get a bit of a sweeping feel around you. This also helps the skirt to pick up the air when you move so that it billows around you as you walk. Inside the skirt there is an inner layer of silk chiffon and that helps to soften out any bumps underneath the top layer and helps to make it very flattering to wear. This is a very rare example of Halston at the top of his game. It is easy to see why his work is the subject of so many books and retrospective shows at museums worldwide. Excellent condition with a tiny note below.

The bodice is made from two layers of the silk jersey and the skirt has an inner silk chiffon lining. The dress hooks to close with two set so of hooks and then it snaps and hooks below the back of the waist. Hand finished. I see some tiny, snags and pin holes along the hem here and there. The fabric has some stretch but the waist has no give.

Bust: The front halter should accommodate a variety of cup sizes. It is approximately 14 to 17" flat across the front
Waist: 12"
Hips: open
Bodice: approx 15" from neck to waist
Total length: approx 50" from shoulder to longest points of the hem 

Modern Sizing Equivalent: XXS-SML

Favorite kitchen gadget!
Color: Black
I bought this for mixing powdered mixes into water, and boy do I love it. I honestly use it way more than anticipated and it works so well. I use it for everything from whisking formula to the intended purpose of frothing milk. Blends quickly and clean is easy, just put a couple of drops soap into water and turn on them rinse! Best money I've spent recently on something for the kitchen, don't even hesitate, just buy it!

Spiral portion of blender did not hold up
Color: Black
It was wonderful for 10 weeks. We used it almost daily and sometimes twice a day. It frothed quickly. It proved a satisfying blender until approx 10 weeks of use. The wire spiral on the end started to slowly wind off. It worked OK but wobbled and frothed weakly at that point. For short term use, for very infrequent use, it will be fine. Looks acceptable, easy to use. Changed the batteries one time. For the price, I am not unhappy. Have now replaced it with a more expensive one on Amazon. Thank you Amazon for giving your shoppers the opportunity to leave our feedback. It is one of your most appreciated features.

Great little frother
Color: Black
This is a great little frother. It is powerful and really frothes up what ever you are trying to stir, sometimes too much for what I want it to do. Do not get water or liquid into the motor area or the item will stop working. Recommend this item.

Tiny, but mighty
Color: Black
I ordered this in July, 2023, and it works very well, great speed. I use it every single morning, to mix my mushroom coffee, cinnamon, and collagen protein. If you're looking for a really good frother, this probably isn't going to meet that demand. It does give some froth, but nothing crazy. I have read reviews that mention "no longer worked after replacing batteries", but mine is still great even after replacing them, which I didn't have to do until after 3 months of usage. I don't know if the color matters in relation to that, but I bought the red one. I would definitely recommend this product.
