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

Best blankets ever
Size: King (90x102 Inch), Color: Navy
Gorgeous blanket. I have many of them. They wash up great and look good. They are soft and warm. I only returned this one because the color was off. It looked more like a light to medium blue, but is actually a very light blue.

Super soft, cozy and lightweight blanket
Size: King (90x102 Inch), Color: White
I absolutely love my blanket. It’s super soft and very comfortable, and it looks really beautiful. It keeps you warm, but it’s not very thick it’s on the lighter side. Even so, I highly recommend it

A cozy fall must-have!
Color: Pumpkin, Size: 50" x 60"
This Halloween Fleece Throw Blanket with pumpkins, leaves, and fall plaid is absolutely perfect for the season! The design is charming—everything from the vibrant pumpkins to the cozy plaid gives off major autumn vibes. It’s the ideal addition to my fall decor and keeps me warm on chilly nights. The fleece material is incredibly soft and plush, and it's surprisingly lightweight yet warm enough for those crisp evenings. I love curling up with a cup of tea and wrapping myself in it while watching Halloween movies. If you’re looking to add a little extra autumn magic to your home, this throw is a must-have! It’s not just cute—it's comfy and cozy too! 🍂🎃🧡

toasty and fluffy!
Color: Pumpkin, Size: 50" x 60"
This blanket is pretty thin so I do not know how many washes it will take before falling apart but considering the price, I am going in with lower expectations from the get go so I'm not going to fret about it. That said, it is very fluffy and feels silky and luxurious. It's also pretty toasty considering how thin it is. It's 100% polyester so I guess that's to be expected. No regrets! I really like it! I'm also a sucker for Halloween so I am enjoying the design too which I admit is the reason I bought it.
