Halston said, "I always make a lot of red [dresses] because it's the color noticed most. I advise clients who do major appearances to wear bright red, blue or yellow."
The jumpsuit has a one-shoulder bodice, which is constructed of four layers of chiffon. It is made in two pieces: the back overlaps the front on the right side, while the front overlaps the back on the left.
David W. Campbell, New York (Stan Weaver, New York); given to IMA December 10, 1985.
