With more than a tinge of regret besprinkling their voices, friends of the late Antonio Lopez reminisce in close-up about the promiscuous pre-AIDS 70s and how the influential fashion designer figured into the good old days before indiscriminate sex came with a death sentence attached. Lopez arrived on the scene just when haute couture was said to be dying out, and soon positioned himself at the front lines of the ensuing ready-to-wear movement. Before Charlie’s Angels, there was Antonio’s Girls, several of whom (Jessica Lange, Jerry Hall, Patti D’Arbanville) pursued successful careers in showbiz long after the runway ran its course. Also de-tailed is Lopez’s relationship with his constant collaborator Juan Eugene Ramos, and their time spent in Paris learning their trade alongside Karl Lagerfeld. Art historian-cum- videographer James Crump (Black White + Gray: A Portrait of Sam Wagstaff and Robert Mapplethorpe) mounts another shoot-now-figure-it-out-later oral history that nowadays passes for documentary filmmaking.
