Fashion &... Antonio

“Antonio was wild, yet disciplined. He created a world of beautiful, modern rococo extravagance through line, form, and colour.” André Leon Talley This week’s episode, Fashion &… Antonio, takes a look at one of the most prolific fashion illustrators of the 20th century - Antonio Lopez. The star of fashion illustrator Antonio Lopez refuses to fade. Antonio was an innovator and championed the art of fashion illustration at a time when it was deemed no longer fashionable and irrelevant. Using his unique command of colour and line he redefined fashion illustration for a new generation of fashion devotees. “Antonio” was the name that was scrawled on his dynamic drawings that defined the international fashion industry. Antonio’s life and art were one. He did not simply capture the zeitgeist - he invented and inspired the attitude of fashion for three decades. More than 30 years after his death, Antonio’s reverberations continue to resonate. #fashion #fashionhistory #fashionhistorian #fashioncurator #fashioncuration #fashionillustration #fashionillustrator #illustration #antoniolopez #antonio #drawing #art #donnajordan #janeforth #PatCleveland #gracejones #jerryhall #1960sfashion #1970sfashion #1980sfashion #20thcenturyfashion #innovators #fashiongenius Antonio Lopez 1970 documentary: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Antonio-Lope...
