Gift of David W. Campbell
David W. Campbell, New York, New York; through (Stan Weaver, New York, New York); given to the Indianapolis Museum of Art in 1984.
Inspired by traditional non-western dress such as the sari and the serape, Halston created flowing, shapeless garments that caressed the body.
The floor-length serape is tie-dyed in a feather-shaped motif that forms a large arch on the background. The shoulder areas are tie-dyed in an abstract spider web pattern.
