Ewan McGregor (“Trainspotting,” “Moulin Rouge!”) eerily captures the creative energy, haughty attitude and self-destructive excesses of the Midwest-raised milliner whose comfortable yet chic gowns, shirtdresses and other designs conquered the Manhattan fashion scene in the 1970s. It took director and executive producer Daniel Minahan (“Game of Thrones,” “Deadwood”) two decades to adapt Steven Gaines’ book “Simply Halston” for the screen. This week, the Halston Archives and family issued a statement complaining that they were not consulted for the Netflix project and that it was “an inaccurate, f ....
Halston TV Review Plot: The limited series Halston follows the legendary fashion designer (Ewan McGregor), as he leverages his single, invented name into a worldwide fashion empire that’s synonymous with luxury, sex, status, and fame, literally defining the era he lives in, 1970’s and ‘80’s New York until a hostile takeover forces him to battle for control of his most precious asset… the name Halston itself. Review: I have long been a fan of Ryan Murphy s brand of storytelling. Since making the shift from FX to Netflix, his projects have been underwhelming. The Politician, Hollywood, and Ratched have all felt like variations of his same formula. Each new series tried to tell a story we had not seen before, but thanks to Murphy, we have and many times over. With my bar set fairly low, I was not expecting ....
‘Halston : Did A Woman Really Die in the Studio 54 Vents? The new Ryan Murphy-produced Netflix series is full of crazy moments, but did this one really happen? Phil Owen | May 14, 2021 @ 11:42 AM Netflix (Some light spoilers ahead for the fourth episode of the Netflix series “Halston”) The life of Roy Halston Frowick, better known simply as Halston, was not boring. That’s not a word you could accurately throw around about anybody who frequented Studio 54 during its brief reign of glory in New York in the late 1970s. As we see in numerous scenes on “Halston,” that place was crazy. An absolute madhouse of debauchery. And certainly too chaotic to last. ....
Kat Irlin Rebecca Dayan was hoping that, after life somewhat returned to normalcy, she would finally get to meet Elsa Peretti, the fashion icon and jewelry designer she portrays on Netflix’s Halston. But she never got the chance; Peretti “It was really sad, because I was hoping that once the world reopened, that I would get to meet with her,” Dayan tells BAZAAR.com over Zoom, speaking from her New York City apartment. She reveres the late Italian designer, perhaps so much so that she downplays her take on her life. “Maybe she would’ve hated the way I portray her,” Dayan jokes. “I hope not.” ....
Will We All Want to Be Wearing Halston Soon? A new Netflix show could create the viral fashion trend of summer. Except the clothes play second fiddle to the divadom and drama. Halston’s epic fashion salvo during “The Battle of Versailles,” as depicted in “Halston,” the series.Credit.via Netflix Published May 14, 2021Updated May 18, 2021 It was bound to happen. After the viral trendsetting of the ’60s shifts in “The Queen’s Gambit” and the ’80s puff sleeves of “The Crown,” it was only a matter of time before Netflix embraced fashion as the Next Great Brand Extension. And what better test than a show based entirely on the life and times of a great designer? ....
