How to wear a black turtleneck for men? 8 perfect examples from the series "Holston"

Images of Roy Holston as the main source of inspiration

On May 14 last year, the long-awaited documentary series «Holston» was released on Netflix, telling about the life of American designer Roy Holston, who forever changed the fashion world. The show was highly praised by critics and is on the list of the ten most popular series of the streaming service, which makes it the main picture of 2021.

In addition to the impeccable performance of the actors (the main role was played by Ewan McGregor), I would like to note the grandiose work of costume designer Geriana San Juan. During the preparation for the shooting, she thoroughly studied the entire biography of the designer, as well as the memories of his close friends about him. This allowed Geriana to convey the spirit of the 70s and recreate the image of Holston as accurately as possible — as a result, every appearance of McGregor on the screen causes an enthusiastic «Wow!».

A distinctive feature of Roy Holston’s style were black turtlenecks. Some of his acquaintances said that he wore them because he was embarrassed by his long neck. But whatever the reasons, after the designer went out in cashmere turtlenecks to the Studio 54 parties, absolutely everyone started wearing them.

Editorial Office ELLE.ru I chose 8 of the most stylish images of the American couturier from the series «Holston», which will make you buy at least one black turtleneck.
