Condition
These items are hand-sketched by Halston himself, each showing the kind of silhouette he wanted to achieve.
The very nature of these sketches, on lined paper, imperfect from being passed around during the creative process, some dog-eared with scribbled notes, gives us insight into the workings of the mind and the process of this brilliant fashion designer.
This particular " Classic Chic" sketch is on slightly yellowed notebook paper, with a slight crease at the bottom
Each sketch includes a certificate of authenticity with artwork provenance. Signed by Nancy North.
