Its subject is fascinating, but Ultrasuede: In Search of Halston is a rambling and unfocused profile.

The film is poorly structured, and most of Sudler-Smith's conclusions are trite. Apr 17, 2015 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

In sartorial terms, the fabric is to die for, but helmer Whitney Sudler-Smith's docu follows a banal pattern, while the finishing lacks finesse. Feb 23, 2012

A self-indulgent pilgrimage to the shrine of '70s fabulousness, "Ultrasuede: In Search of Halston" assembles a fine assortment of archival material but falls far short of its stated goal. Feb 9, 2012 | Full Review…

It's unfortunate that director Whitney Sudler-Smith seems to have spent more time on his own hair than his interview prep. Jan 20, 2012 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Lost in all this is Halston, who comes through only in dribs and drabs. If you're curious about him, skip this film. Jan 19, 2012 | Full Review…

[It's directed by] an unknown amateur named Whitney Sudler-Smith who looks a bit like Julian Assange and seems almost surprised to be making a film at all. Apr 17, 2015 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It becomes clear throughout the movie that you don't have to be a fanboy or fashionista to appreciate the story of such a smart, flawed, fabulous man. Apr 17, 2015 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

I want to believe that Whitney Sudler-Smith, the director and camera-hogging "presenter" of Ultrasuede: In Search Of Halston, is some kind of Bruno-like parody of a fashion victim. He's too gloriously, self- importantly inept to be real, surely? Apr 17, 2015 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Halston's name is in the title, but the faintly irritating Ultrasuede isn't necessarily about the fashion designer. It's about director Whitney Sudler-Smith Mar 9, 2012 | Rating: 2/5

Sudler-Smith spends so much time documenting Sudler-Smith trying to ineptly document this story that one immediately begins to wonder if it's all some sort of strange joke. Jan 24, 2012 | Rating: F | Full Review…

The tension between the amateurish interviewer and the star interviewees gives the doc a layer of authenticity that its otherwise formulaic structure and storytelling fail to find. Jan 21, 2012 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…
