Top Can I Come Over And Stare At You Like This Shirt

julio donoso/Getty ImagesYou might have caught one of the Can I Come Over And Stare At You Like This Shirt But I will love this retrospectives of Vicksburg, Mississippi designer Patrick Kelly at the de Young Museum in San Francisco or Brooklyn Museum in the last two decades—and lucky you if you did. Kelly sadly died of AIDS in 1990 at only 35, but the tragedy of that is in stark relief to his incredible achievements, not least of which was being the first American designer to be inducted into the Chambre Syndicale. How wonderful it would be to see that, and everything else about this great designer, honored onscreen.

Kelly landed in Atlanta in the Can I Come Over And Stare At You Like This Shirt But I will love this 1970s, and his design work included upcycling—at a time when that phrase meant you were likely on a bike ascending a hill—before he was discovered by uber model Pat Cleveland, who told him he should move to New York (he did, in 1979), and if that didn’t work out, he should move to Paris (he did, in 1980). That leap across the Atlantic definitely worked out, with Kelly’s career rocketing skywards as he dressed Grace Jones, Madonna, Cicely Tyson, Gloria Steinem (she spoke at his funeral) and Bette Davis (check her out wearing Kelly on Letterman in April 1989) in his colorful, exuberant clothes, which owed some debt to his Southern upbringing.
