[hens clucking in distance]
[woman] Roy!
Roy!
[woman] I just want to--
-[clattering] -[man yells]
[woman screams]
[man] Just all day and all night, you've been riding me.
-[woman] Don't get upset I-- -[man] Don't get upset when you wake me--
-[woman] I don't like when you-- -[man] I don't care who hears anything.
-[man] Come here! -[slaps]
[loud thud]
[woman sobbing]
I made something for you.
[melancholy music playing]
[woman laughs quietly]
[upbeat music playing]
[reporter] People gather by the thousands
to witness the inauguration of John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
As the motorcade makes its way down Pennsylvania Avenue,
they hope to catch a glimpse of First Lady Jackie Kennedy
in a dress by designer Oleg Cassini
and a simple yet elegant pillbox by hatmaker Mr. Halston.
Did they just say your name?
[upbeat music continues]
[bell rings]
[woman chatter indistinctly]
Excuse me. Morning. Good morning.
[salesman] Elegance, if you will.
I think madam will be really pleased.
What the hell is going on?
What's going on?
Ah, so Jacqueline Kennedy dropped your name for one.
We've sold 50 already, and it's not even 10:00 a.m.
You're him, aren't you?
You're Mr. Halston. [gasps]
God bless Jackie Kennedy.
[Halston] Fuck Jackie Kennedy.
Halston! Why would you say that after all she's been through?
She made you, Halston.
And then she killed me.
Stopped wearing hats so she wouldn't ruin that awful gigantic hairdo of hers.
[sighs]
Do you have a moment?
I'm sorry. As you can see, we're terribly busy.
[man] Halston, the second-quarter report came in.
-It's not good. -Mm-hmm.
Hat sales are down 30% from last quarter, and the previous quarter down 40%.
-We're trending up, is what you're saying. -No, that is not what I'm saying.
You know what they say. Numbers.
Who says that?
Oh, everybody. All the time.
People just don't wear hats anymore is the problem.
Yes. As a milliner, Henry, I'm well aware of that fact.
Well, what I mean is, what are you going to do about it?
Well, I'm hard at work making the sun brighter,
but until I get my rainmaking machine working,
I don't know what I'll do, Henry.
Except maybe drink after this meeting.
[laughing in background]

What is it about an amaretto stone sour that you don't like?
It's the stone, isn't it? Choking hazard. I'll have the barman remove it.
No, thank you.
-Then let me buy you something else. -No, thanks.
I don't accept drinks from strangers.
Then tell me your name. We won't be strangers.
You go first.
-Eric. -And what do you do, Eric?
I'm a falconer.
Bullshit.
We're heroes, really, my falcon and I. Keeping the rat population under control.
It's very fashionable, what we do.
That long leather glove, that little cap I put over his head.
It's kinky.
Let me buy you a drink.
Can I ask what is it about me that caught your eye?
How do you mean?
I mean, why are you trying to pick me up and not anybody else?
I'm not like anybody else.
Just wouldn't have thought I was your type.
And what's my type?
A white guy in a Brooks Brothers suit.
Ouch.
[man] Mmm.
Or… maybe you're just a size queen.
Or…
maybe I've been an outsider, too, my whole life.
Getting sideways glances from white guys in Brooks Brothers suits
for what I was and who I liked or who I was and what I liked.
Till one day, I just stopped giving a flying fuck.
Ed.

[gentle music playing]
[lighter ignites]
Nice meeting you, Eric.
Though Eric's not your real name, is it?
Roy.
Though that's not my real name either.
I like people to call me Halston.
Get the fuck out.
The hat designer?
[Ed laughs]
I've always wondered this. How does somebody end up designing hats?
It's sculpture, really.
I've always done it. I made hats to lift my mother's spirits.
Oh, honey.
[gasps]
You are far too special for this place.
[Halston] I had a magical childhood.
But I left Indiana as soon as I could. First to Chicago and then here.
Made myself out of nothing.
Whole cloth, as it were.
Men like us…
come here from some faraway place to invent ourselves.
Make something out of nothing.
I didn't come from as far.
Just crossed the river from New Jersey, but…
That version of me seems very far away.
So, what are you going to do now?
Women don't wear hats anymore.
Well, Ed, I have a plan.
Have you ever heard of Ralph Lifshitz?
[Ed] Who?
[Halston] Recently, Ralph Lifshitz walks into Bloomingdale's
with a line of ties one inch wider than any other tie being sold
and a label that says "Polo."
They said, "If you make them one inch narrower
and you swap your label for ours, we'll sell them."
[Halston] He said no.
And he walked out of there. And then two weeks later,
Bloomingdale's, they come back to the table.
They say, "We made a mistake."
[Halston] "We love your ties. We're haunted by them."
"You can keep your label. You can keep them one inch wider."
"And we want you to make shirts to go with them."
I've been designing hats for Bergdorf's since 1961.
I put that fucking place on the map.
I'm gonna do what Ralph Lifshitz did, only bigger.
Why don't I know this name?
Because he changed his last name to fucking Lauren.
I have a vision, Ed.
[cars honking in distance]
[man] So, a store within a store?
[Halston] See? Simple.
But to sell what?
Halston.
I wanna be the first person who's also a complete line.
Women will come to me,
and I will provide them a complete, custom couture experience.
I'll put her in Halston, head to toe.
Dress, bra, panties, hose, shoes--
I don't know, Halston.
No one wants European knockoffs anymore.
What if Bergdorf Goodman could house the first American couturier?
-You? -No.
Halston.
Which is me.
It's interesting.
Why don't you start by making us some dresses?
[clock bell chiming]
[footsteps]
[camera shutters clicking]
[camera shutter clicks]
Mm-hmm, yeah.
[dramatic music playing]
[Ed] Okay, so then what happened? How many did you sell?
Well, you won't believe it.
It was an unmitigated disaster. No sales. Total flop.
Oh my God. I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
I'm fine. What do you mean? I was brilliant. They're the dummies.
Let me freshen you up.
-But what are you gonna do? -Keep going.
The show didn't work. That's fine. I know what I have to do.
And what is that?
I'm too big for that room.
I need to get out on my own.
You are fucking impressive, man.
[Ed] Mmm.
[Halston inhales deeply]
I mean, here's the thing though. I know you love "yes" people.
And I got a lot more syllables up my sleeve than just yes.
Try me. Tell me something you think I won't like.
Okay, fine.
That collection you did for Bergdorf's? Looked like cement.
That's why they didn't sell. Nobody wanted 'em.
Nobody understood them.
You don't want to understand a dress. You want to love it.
You want to be Balenciaga. There's already a Balenciaga.
What we need is to figure out your signature.
What's gonna make me see some gorgeous woman
out in a supper club wearing a fabulous ensemble
and say, "That's a Halston."
So, does that mean you're in?
-[applause] -[champagne cork popping]
[jazz music playing]
[crowd cheering]
Good evening.
I have to tell you I have a problem sometimes.
And that's my name.
For instance, someone might come up to me and say, "Hello, Lisa. How are you?"
And I'll say, "I'm fine, thank you, but it's Liza. It has a 'Z' in it."
Or someone might say, "Lisa, what a nice hat you have on."
And I'll say, "Thank you very much, but my name is Liza."
-[man] Liza! -"And that's my hair."

-Brava! -[woman] Wonderful!
-Liza! -[Liza] Hm?
Meet Halston.
[laughing] Oh!
Yeah, I saw you out there.
Everyone else is going berserk,
and you are sitting there like you're in a Dutch Masters painting.
[man laughs]
If I'm honest, I was a little distracted by the Buster Brown getup.
I think you need a new look.
[Liza] Oh.
-I love him already. [chuckles] -I knew you would.
[Halston] Exactly. The collection was a disaster, and I knew it.
So I decided to throw it all away.
I left Bergdorf's and destroyed my life, basically.
No. No, you can't think of it like that.
You didn't throw anything away. You just gave yourself an enormous gift.
You left everything you knew behind, which means
you are open to inspiration.
And inspiration is going to find you.
[Liza] Mmm.
You know what?
That pillbox hat that Jackie wore? That is your Judy Garland.
You and me are living under the shadow of something,
and we're both trying to do the same thing.
We're walking away. Saying, "No. I wanna be taken seriously on my own."
I'm--
I…
I don't wanna be just Judy Garland's daughter.
Like you don't wanna just be Jackie O's hatmaker.
Why are you dressing like a little girl?
[Liza laughs]
Okay, see? Exactly. Why do I do that?
I mean, it's cute, sure, but it's not you. I don't think.
You're a woman. You should be dressed like one.
[Liza] Mmm.
And I suppose you're just the fella to help.
Yes, I think I am.

Oh my.
Beautiful.
[Halston] This place will be your blank canvas.
Third floor is the sewing room.
All state of the art like Balenciaga in Paris.
And this will be the lounge.
And in here will be the salon where it's all really gonna happen.
I wanna create a new kind of experience.
I want women to come here
and feel like they've been transported to a different world.
What sort of design are you picturing?
Well, you know, Halston, rich, textural, cool.
Like Shangri-La on the Upper East Side.
Okay. Halston, how long have we known one another?
Uh-oh.
I love you like family.
But what you're describing costs money, and I happen to know you don't got any.
-Not true! Not true. -Mmm.
In all of humanity, you're the only one who can do this.
What you did with the Opera Club at the Met…
That cost a zillion dollars.
You're the only one who can do it.
You made fucking Key West fashionable, Angelo.
[sighs] Halston, you can't afford me.
Well, can't you do it at cost?
It's like your ears don't work.
Look, I'm giving you the opportunity to have the cream of New York society
coming through these doors and looking at this place going,
"Oh, it's spectacular. Who designed it?"
God as my witness, that's worth more than whatever the Opera Club paid you.
-Do you mean that? -Have I ever lied to you?
-Okay. -Oh, my hero. My hero!
-Knock it off. -So, what do you think?
[piano music playing]
Someone's in a good mood.
It's always been my dream
to have a showroom with a workshop on another floor.
And I found it, and I rented it.
-Where? -68th and Madison.
Wait till you see it. Literally wait to see it. It's a mess.
And I found my team. Merry misfits, each and every one of them.
[Halston] Joe Eula's gonna be my illustrator. He's fantastic.
He drew collections for Vogue, for Givenchy, for Coco Chanel.
Chic is hard to capture. It's elusive, but he can do it.
Why do you need an illustrator?
I want to see a whole collection laid out in front of me.
"Get rid of that. Lower that neckline."
It's a very intimate relationship between a designer and his illustrator.
Joe's more of like a second brain, but stop breaking my train of thought.
-Sorry. -Elsa Peretti.
She's gonna be my fit model. She's Italian.
Comes from money, but she's left all that behind.
She's stunning. You can't take your eyes off her.
Some models just wear clothes. Elsa, she makes them her own.
-I thought Liza was your muse? -Well, you can't have too many muses.
Don't be jealous, Ed.
[Ed chuckles]
Then there's this kid, Schumacher.
He does the windows at Paraphernalia. He'll bring me that young attitude.
-Excuse me. Did you do this? -Yes.
-Did you do this? -Yes. I…
[Halston] The team's all in place.
Last thing I need to do is find the money.
Last? I'd have thought that's the first thing you had to do.
I just need a teensy-weensy million dollars.
A million dollars?
The idea was to go to the rich husbands of my old clients at Bergdorf's
and ask them.
Arthur Vanderbilt, Charles Engelhard, Baron de Rothschild.
And how did that work out?
Well, they didn't say no.
Anyway, I'm not worried.
Tomorrow I have a meeting with Estelle Marsh.
She's the wife of a Texas oil baron.
Don't look at me like that. I've got this sewn up.
[spoon clinking]
[Halston] Mrs. Marsh, when was the last time anyone asked you,
really asked you
what you need?
When I was at Bergdorf's, I'd have my ladies sit in my chair,
and I'd say, "Tell me your troubles. What's bothering you? What do you need?"
Such a small question which would almost without fail be met with, well,
at first, a little sorrow.
Because so few people in their lives, especially the men,
ever thought to ask them that.
The way my ex-husband used to put it was, "What the fuck do you want?"
[both laugh]
Mrs. Marsh.
[teacup clinks on table]
Did you ever visit Balenciaga in Paris for Made to Order?
Come.
Balenciaga loves making women feel afraid.
When you climb the stairs to his atelier,
you're met by a very stern secretary who makes you feel unimportant, even ugly.
That won't happen here.
This will be the lounge, where you'll take a breath,
let go, tell us what you need,
be reminded of what you're capable of.
There'll be tea, champagne…
Some of our younger staff may even be able to get you marijuana.
[Mrs. Marsh laughs]
[Halston] Come.
Here.
This will be the salon.
I'll have my girls model the latest collection.
Then you'll choose from those designs,
and then I'll build your choices to your measurements.
Mrs. Marsh,
because women like Catherine Deneuve, Jackie Kennedy,
you custom order your clothing here, within five years,
Halston Limited will be picked up by every reputable department store
in the United States.
I'm gonna change the face of American fashion.
And it will all be because of you.
You could talk a leopard out of its spots.
[Halston chuckles, inhales]
How much, exactly, are you looking for?
A million dollars.
Ooh.
I'll give you 100,000.
Oh, and you're gonna hire my son, Michael.
He's handy.
He can do all sorts of work. He could even model.
Deal.
[laughs]
Thank you, Mrs. Marsh. Thank you. Come. Let's have tea.
[sewing machine stitching]
[sewing machine stops]
[Halston inhales deeply]
This is fucking terrible. Who made this one?
I did.
Don't take this the wrong way,
but that's the worst fucking dress I've ever seen.
Looks like a prom dress, but for a Martian.
-[woman] Dai, Halston. -Okay, Halston, easy.
Don't "easy" me, Joe.
We have a fucking show in two weeks. These designs are shit.
I think if she had a nice, big piece of chunky jewelry--
We're not selling jewelry, Elsa! We're selling dresses to human women.
-Take it off. -Maybe in the right color?
You do not get to talk.
Joel, these designs are not working. You must be able to see that.
-Sorry. -No, don't say sorry. Do better.
Halston, please! You're mad at yourself and taking it out on the kid.
I cannot do this all on my own, everybody!
I didn't hire you so that I could do all the work myself.
-That's what's happening! -Why don't we take a break?
Because we haven't got time.
There's not one of these designs I would put my name to. Not one.
[inhales deeply]
The fucking embarrassment.
Where's the suede trench coat?
Uh… Yeah, just one second.
[clears throat]
[sniffs, sighs]
What happened?
Um… Well, this is stupid. It was raining today.
Who wore it out in the rain?
It's a trench coat, Halston.
I… I did.
Suede is not waterproof, as it turns out, and it just…
As you can see, it's just not going to work.
Well, the cut's fantastic. Look at it.
It's just the wrong material, but it's the right idea.
No, suede is not waterproof.
But it is the right idea.
No one else is doing that. I wanted that. I wanted that…
that sensation.
[mysterious music playing]
Everyone knows suede is not waterproof.
I know, Halston. I'm sorry.
Schumacher, you're a junior partner, right?
-That's your title. -Yeah.
Do you think you're earning that title as of now?
It's a simple yes or no question.
Are you earning the title of junior partner
right now?
No.
Oh fuck.
[Joe] Halston.
[elevator running]
[elevator stops]
[Joel] Jesus!
Sorry, thought I locked it. Sorry.
What are you doing?
I was just taking a second to collect my thoughts.
[Halston] No. What are you doing?
Is it heroin?
No. No, it's… it's just speed.
How often do you do that?
Not-- I'm-- I don't know, every…
Every day?
No, not always.
You shoot speed every day?
Yeah.
Yes, I do.
With all the work we're doing, it's…
So, you started doing this when you came to work for me?
No. No.
It's just a thing I do.
You know, it keeps me focused. It's… It's how I get into the groove.
Do I need to do something here? Take you somewhere?
Do I need to be worried?
No.
I… I don't know.
Um…
I… I don't belong here, do I?
I think we're…
we're all a bit like little ships lost at sea.
We've all been through a lot.
Left our families, been rejected one way or another.
Bunch of queers and freaks and girls who haven't grown up yet.
I think you belong here.
[chuckles]
You're very talented, Joel, but there's too much at stake here.
I think you can see that.
If you wanna keep working for me, you gotta get clean.
I do. I mean, I will.
It's just--
When you bite my head off about the designs--
If you stop shooting speed,
I'll stop biting your head off.
Okay.
-Okay? -Okay.
Halston.
There's something I wanna show you.
I didn't show you because I thought you'd get mad, but…
it might be good.
[ethereal music playing]
How did you make it?
Uh, just in my kitchen.
-Boiling dyes on the stove. -Oh, I love it.
No one's doing this.
So modern, sensual.
Here, help me find the middle of the length.
Okay. Lay it down.
Scissors, someone.
Thank you, Joe.
Elsa, come.
[dramatic music playing]
Now.
Lose that.
There's something there.
Joel, just pin down this edge
and bring these two edges together in a diagonal going right down.
Now, what about the lengths, Joe?
I'm thinking lower.
Maybe bring up the hem.
[Halston] Yeah, let me see.
[scissors snipping]
Now.
Che bello.
Something's not right.
It's the hair.
Et voilà.
Yes.
Now. Walk.
[Italian pop song playing]
[song continues]
[applause]
[Halston] Thank you.
Oh, they loved it! I think they loved it.
Fuck.
-Well, Halston, these are not bad. -They're not good.
Yes, this one is.
Senti. "Effortless and elegant,
Halston is an exciting new voice in women's fashion."
Well…
"The look they've assembled here is thrown together or contrived."
Well, which is it, Bernadine Morris? Thrown together or contrived?
This one says, "'You're either young or old,' says Halston."
Well, that's neither good nor bad. That's just a quote.
He never ever gets to talk.
A collection isn't a success until there are orders.
How many orders do we have, Joel?
Not many.
Correct. Zero. Which is, yes, not many.
Well, on to the next collection.
What? There won't be a next collection.
This was fucking it. We're $200,000 in debt.
We haven't paid the rent. In two weeks, they'll turn the lights out.
Well, if we're talking about money, you could maybe spend less on orchids.
That is missing the thrust of what I'm saying,
and orchids are part of my process.
Can't put a budget on inspiration.
[sighs]
[telephone ringing]
I'll get it.
Pronto, Halston Limited.
Why does he always leave when I raise my voice?
-Am I that abrasive? -You want me to answer that question?
-[Elsa] Halston. -Who is it? Do they have any money?
Hello?
[door opens]
Oh, hi.
You forgot to flush the toilet.
It's 'cause… um…
Sorry.
[toilet flushes]
Come here.
We had a deal.
I'm under way too much pressure to be having a junkie on my team.
It's so much stress.
I know. How… how can you even handle it?
Because it only takes one person,
one socialite to change everything.
If I can get my designs on the one right person,
I can get them on every woman in America.
It just takes one "yes"
from the most sophisticated socialite in New York City,
and I just got off the phone with her.
Babe Paley just called, and she wants to see our collection.
Babe Paley? Are you serious?
Yes. Now get your fucking shit together.
[soft music playing]
[blow dryer clicks on]
[blow dryer clicks off]
[soft music continues]
[knocking at door]
[Halston laughing]
No, I didn't say that. No, no, no.
No, no. It's… it's just my takeout.
I mean, I love Liza. You know I do.
But I don't think I can sit through another Liza with a "Z."
[Halston laughs]
I know. All right, honey. I'll let you go.
Ciao, ciao.
[phone hangs up]
[inhales deeply]
[exhales]
Can I ask you something?
What's going on here?
What do you mean?
The past few weeks, I haven't seen you smile.
You dress different. You're…
You're talking different, for God's sake.
I could be more to you.
Is this not working?
No, it's just that I…
We see each other two, three nights a week?
And I still don't feel like I really know you.
That's all. I wanna know you.
I think you know me very well, Ed.
"I think you know me very well, Ed." What is it with the voice?
-What voice? -That one.
You're from Indiana. It's like you're imitating somebody.
I am not.
I take offense to that. I've always been this person.
If anyone in this room has changed, it's you.
-Me? -Yes, I make you insecure.
My ambition.
Didn't use to be the case, but it obviously is now.
Looking for things to pick at. My voice? Good Lord.
Well, all right.
I don't wanna argue.
I don't either.
I think I'll turn in.
Okay.
I'd like to sleep alone.

Beautiful.
Stunning, actually.
But I can't wear them every day.
-You're… you're interested in every day? -Mm-hmm.
Then let me show you something I've been developing.
Elsa.
I call it Ultrasuede.
I was working a lot with suede, which I adore.
But wear it in the rain and it's ruined.
So, it occurred to me, I should create my own.
This is a new synthetic.
You can throw it in the wash. You can dress it up.
You can wear it to lunch. You can take the kids to school in it.
It's sexy. It's comfort.
It's freedom.
I'll take one in every color.
