About the Brand

The founding figure of the brand was American fashion designer Roy Halston Frowick. In the early 1950s, he began working in women's millinery, and after arriving in New York in 1958, he became the head hat designer at Bergdorf Goodman department store.

In 1969, he opened his own haute couture atelier on Madison Avenue and introduced a ready-to-wear line. In the 1970s, he gained international acclaim for his minimalist, clean designs making use of, among other materials, cashmere, ultrasuede, silk chiffon, and jersey. Halston Classic was the first fragrance launched by the brand.

The brand's history places its first fragrance in the context of Roy Halston Frowick's work and his clean design aesthetic.
