Antonio Lopez 1970: Sex Fashion & Disco

Antonio Lopez 1970 Sex Fasion & Disco FINAL Play Button

A native of Puerto Rico raised in the Bronx, Antonio Lopez gained international recognition as one of the most influential fashion illustrators of his time. His artistic vision and commitment to diversity revolutionized the fashion world, and his natural charisma allowed him to help launch the careers of icons like Grace Jones, Jessica Lange, and Jerry Hall. With archival footage and nostalgic interviews from those who were fortunate enough to find themselves in Lopez’s inner circle, documentarian James Crump paints a vivid, ultra-chic portrait of a man and the fashion world he helped to create.
