Harper’s Bazaar editorial fearing Halston and his Halstonettes. Photographed by Bill King, 1977. Halston wanted everyone to be able to wear his clothes. In 1983, Halston made his clothing more accessible by signing a deal to create a more affordable line with JC Penney. While diffusion lines are common now, this was fairly novel at the time. This backfired on him, however, when his other partners at luxury stores dropped his main collection because of his association with the mid-tier department store. #halston #halstonettes #harpersbazaar #70sfashion
