Halston & Liza, together forever... in needlepoint.



Home decor darling Jonathan Adler taps into the Warhol spirit by splashing iconic celeb portraits as eye candy....in this case, needle pointed on pillows to liven up a slow cocktail party...and a reminder of the sizzle of Studio 54.
 Halston created a look for (his muse) Liza that suited her imperfect looks and figure perfectly, and became her iconic style...on stage and off.
The spark/magic between visual artist and muse has produced legendary, iconic work that they were unable to create with anyone else.
Bob Mackie & Cher
Barry Gordy & Diana Ross
Hubert Givenchy & Audrey Hepburn
Tom Ford & Carine Roitfeld
Yves Saint Laurent & Betty Catroux/Lou Lou de la Falaise
Jean Paul Goude & Grace Jones
David Bailey & Marie Helvin
Stephen Sprouse & Terry Toye
Peter Beard & Iman
Bruce Weber  & Peter Johnson
Steven Meisel  & Linda Evangelista
Kenneth Paul Block &  Babe Paley
Diana Vreeland & Verushka
Richard Avedon & Lauren Hutton
Christian Laroix & Katoucha
Martin Scorsese & Robert DeNiro
Antonio Lopez & Jerry Hall
Helmut Newton & Jerry Hall
Thierry Mugler & Jerry Hall!lol

The Artist/Mentor has to be extraordinarily inspired by his muse and the muse has to be a larger than life  female ( or male) archetype and uniquely beautiful/handsome.....and most importantly completely surrender to the will of the Artist. It's often a love/lust affair verging on obsession.
