Something Fun for Evansville



This notice is from Susie E. I thought it would be fun to share.

Halston Exhibit
Comes to Evansville
Roy Halston Frowick, an Evansville native, was once considered America’s premier fashion designer. Halston, as he became known, was born in Des Moines, Iowa, but later moved to Evansville. He attended Washington and Hebron Elementary Schools, and
graduated from Bosse High School in 1950.

Halston started his career designing pillbox hats like those worn by Jacqueline Kennedy. He
later became widely known for his innovative dress designs. The Evansville Museum of Arts and Sciences will host a Halston exhibit - Halston: A Family Remembrance of an Evansville Original - which will feature daywear and evening wear designed by Halston. The exhibit will run from February 3 through May 4 in the Main Gallery.
