Roy Halston Frowick took his first steps into the cutthroat world of 1950s fashion. While studying at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, SAIC, the young designer decided to start making hats for women. He quickly acquired a loyal clientele and opened his own boutique in 1957 in Chicago’s Magnificent Mile.
But it was not until the inauguration of U.S. President John Fitzgerald Kennedy on January 20, 1961, that Halston finally made a name for himself. Indeed, it was the designer himself who made the iconic pillbox hat worn by the first lady, Jackie Kennedy. Soon, every woman in America dreamed of getting her hands on this elegant hat, and Halston‘s career was officially launched.
