Some pieces are good, but I do have a feeling that I have seen most of them before. Is that just me or an illusion?

Well, I have to give him credit as he did exactly what he said he was going to do.

Marco Zanini's first go at Halston is very Raf Simons for Jil Sandor meets Francisco Costa for Calvin Klein with a bit of Matthew Williamson on some of the bolder ensembles.

That blue jumpsuit thing is one of the ugliest things I've seen in a while.

Not what I expected...I do not like this. I was expecting action! If this were for another label it might would be okay, but bho.

I used to intern for Halston. They have been through more designers than enough. They are trying to find common ground between the classic Halston look and contemporary fashion. I personally like the line, but I loved what Bradely Bayou did for Halston.
