Before there were influencers, there was Antonio Lopez. The Puerto Rican-born, Bronx-raised Lopez was considered the premier fashion illustrator of the time – we’re talking about the decadent 70s. His innovative approach to style was considered groundbreaking, and his status as a tastemaker made his inner circle the place to be. Credited with discovering Jerry Hall, Jessica Lange, Tina Chow, Pat Cleveland, and more, Antonio ushered in urban style and diversity.
Released in 2017, the incredibly dynamic documentary, Antonio Lopez 1970: Sex Fashion & Disco, showcases 1970s haute couture through his eyes. You can catch this not-to-be-missed doc on Amazon, Apple TV, and online at PBS.
