The Andy Warhol Museum will kick off its 20th anniversary celebration with “Halston and Warhol: Silver and Suede,” an exhibition that shows the creativity and friendship between two of the most iconic figures of contemporary American fashion and art. The exhibition integrates Halston’s garments, including dresses, hats, and other accessories, along with Warhol’s photography, videos, and paintings. It includes approximately 40 of Halston’s creations including an iconic pillbox hat designed for Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis in 1961, and his signature Ultrasuede shirtdress, juxtaposed with Warhol’s works. It also features archival material and ephemera from the archives of The Warhol and the personal collection of Lesley Frowick.
As one of the sponsors for the just opened exhibition, Electrolux has created two pairs of washers and dryers inspired by the art of Warhol. Warhol Washers and Dryers are a part of the brand’s new 24-inch Front Load Compact Washer and Dryer line, and feature the quirky-colored screen printing that made Warhol so iconic.
