The re-birth of Halston



























The US fashion label from the 1960's, Halston was renowned in the days of Studio 54 and Andy Warhol. It is a label that is iconic and legendary in America's fashion history. Last year the movie-making-mogul Harvey Weinstein secured the rights and ownership of the Halston label. With this in tow, heading up the new team is the recently appointed creative director, Italian designer Marco Zanini. Who? I hear you ask. Well Zanini is the head designer of womenswear, ready-to-wear and haute couture at the House of Versace.

To assist Zanini with creating and maintaining the flair and style of the "Studio 54" days' glamour in modern times, is the ex-Jimmy Choo director Tamara Mellon, who sits on Halston board. To top things off, the celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe is an advisor on the creative team. One could say there are exciting things to come.

Well look at Tamara, she is the opposite, so much botox and restalin injections have made her face creaseless.

By the way, liking the pimped up blog! Way cool!
