1970s Halston Ultrasuede Shirt Dress, Hat and Shoulder Bag

 

 

 

 

Yeah, baybay, we've got the whole enchilada here. The whole shebang.  The whole - ensemble. As we slowly relenquish some of the beloved Halston collection we have held on to with an iron fist, we're coughing up one that could be entitled 'Halston For Dummies', or 'Just Add Boots', but we're not mean spirited. Though there are those who may disagree with us, we think the best thing to coordinate with Halston is more Halston, and when you can don something and stroll the street looking just like a Halstonette, we say screw the stylists and wear everything all at once. In buckskin hued Ultrasuede, the dress is Halston's signature shirt dress, buttoning from collar to knee, with a buttoned sleeve cuff, inseam hip pockets and finished with a sash belt.  The hat is his perky little bucket style, with a crown circumference of 22". The shoulder bag is an open feedbag style with a single interior compartment and ties at the shoulder and measures roughly 9" wide by 12" high with about an 18" drop on the straps. The dress measures: Bust 34", waist 33", hip 35", shoulder 15", sleeve 24", length  41". All pieces are unlined and washable (though the tag indicates machine washing, we can't bear to and do it by hand), which makes them perfect travel companions, and you can dance in the rain in this with nary a care.  The bag has some faint discoloration, otherwise all pieces are in excellent condition. sold
