FW 1989 Patrick Kelly Runway Dress in Blue & Black Knit with Head Scarf
About the Item
Patrick Kelly designed with his heart and his pieces often reflected his childhood memories and the people and places that impacted his life. The talented Mississippi-born, Paris-based Black fashion designer broke boundaries and shook up the conventional fashion world with his joyful, playful designs.
The Patrick Kelly Fall Winter 1989 runway show featured models carrying baskets reminiscent of Little Red Riding Hood, one of Kelly's personal favorite childhood stories. The designs included attached panels that can be wrapped as hoods, perfect for a journey to grandmother's house! Versions of this dress can be found in several colors from that season with slight variations on the style. We have included images of a similar dress in the Met's collection as well as one in yellow from a museum exhibit and one in red from the runway.
This particular vintage Patrick Kelly dress is in a blue and black stretch knit in a sheath style. The dress closes with a back zipper and has long sleeves and a v neckline.The fabric is a blend of 30% wool and 70% acrylic.
Patrick Kelly dresses are very hard to come by because he was sadly only able to create a few collections as his life was cut tragically short. We always grab them when we can find them and cherish each one in our collection.
