Antonio Lopez, Daniel Hechter Fashion “Variation 3”, 1967

It’s Fashion Week month, don’t you know! As the activity moves from New York to London tomorrow, a new show opens at Gallery 8—Gray MCA’s annual Drawing on Style—with a selection of rare fashion illustrations from some of the biggest names in the business. Antonio Lopez’s revolutionary images hum with psychedelic, expressive energy, playing up to fashion’s most vibrant and joyful moments. Lopez was inspired by the movements of dance and he drew from life.
