Ultrasuede: In Search of Halston

Very interesting documentary about the man behind the shirtdress. This film has some fabulous interviews with some fabulous people! Hello, Andre Leon Talley! Billy Joel! DVF! LIZA (Lucille 2)!

Things I learned about Halston from this film:

  • He was fabulous
  • He loved himself
  • His boyfriend/lover was "eccentric"
  • He loved a good turtleneck and trenchcoat

I wasn't planning on watching this movie last night, but it had just started on Showtime, so I figured I would start it and then just record the rest when I got too tired, but I stayed up for the entire thing, so that's saying something because I am an old lady.

All in all, a very interesting look into the life of the first American designer to actually take the Paris fashion world down and do it well.

Let's be honest, you can't really go wrong with a man whose best friend is Liza!
