Reviews
"Written by Halston's niece and confidante, the pages reflect his glamorous, minimalist aesthetic that personified American fashion in the electric 1970s." -Society Diaries
"This book breathes fresh vitality into his (Halston's) legacy." -Chicago Tribune
"Without question Lesley Frowick has written an endearing and intimate telling of her beloved uncle, Roy Halston Frowick...telling of his life is a love letter and paean to his legacy...The best way to summarize this book is to say that Ms. Frowick has approached the life of this designer as a sentimental journey. What sets the book apart is that she concentrates on Halston's relationships to his actual family as well his extended family...it is full of photos and provides a great timeline for the designer's career..." -New York Journal of Books
