All About Ultrasuede

According to Patricia Mears, the coauthor of “Yves Saint Laurent + Halston: Fashioning the ’70s,” the Halstonettes were “striking not only for their tall, lean bodies and beautiful faces, but also their ethnic diversity.” The group included some of the biggest and most revolutionary models of that era, including Pat Cleveland, Alva Chinn, Karen Bjornson and Anjelica Huston, among others. The allure of Halston’s designs was often amplified by the group of models — the Halstonettes — that he regularly traveled with and dressed. The models often wore matching, head-to-toe Halston looks and were meant to showcase the designer’s intent on dressing a diverse range of women.
