HALSTON IV by Roy Halston
Vintage Circa Early 1980s
One Size / Taille Unique - best for international designer size S-L (see measurements)
Noteworthy American designer, Halton, is celebrated for his easy-elegance styles. His fluid bias cut drapes paired with intriguing fabrics trademark what has been called a “glam bohemian” style that boasts a certain sensual yet reserved feel. From the late-70s / early-80s, this Halston caftan is made from a gold lame fabric with a striped pattern.
A simple rounded neckline plunges just to the bust line at centre front recalling historic tunic designs. With a slight fit through the upper torso, the remainder of the caftan falls from bust level to create a shimmering sheath silhouette to the ankle. A center slit at the hemline compliments the V-neckline. Seen worn by designer, Rachel Zoe, on several occasions, this vintage Halston piece is an easy-to-wear glam look that can be styled for almost any occasion.
This caftan dress is partially lined in a matching satin until under the bust.

In order to ship, garments must be folded, and, therefore, likely arrive wrinkled. There is nothing I can do to prevent wrinkling that happens in transit. All is not lost though, please give most garments quick steam, and the wrinkles should relax.
If the item is dry clean only, it's recommended to take it to a dry cleaner to have it pressed and prevent water stains.
