This is my series devoted to the real life models who became Rootstein mannequins. The mannequins are also dressed in attire that provides a little bit of fashion history.

This is Fiona Hamilton, circa 1983 from the The Halston III department in JCPenney stores. The Halston III department featured visual merchandising properties, prints of Andy Warhol for Halston designs and Adel Rootstein mannequins in three different poses to represent ” III “. All the heads on these factory custom mannequins were Fiona’s.

The poses were coded ( H for Halston followed by rest of code)”HT1″

Fiona Hamilton is styled in Halston III denim jacket, vest, skirt and shoes. The pearl necklace is Halston from gift with purchase of Halston fragrance.
