Reception

Katie Walsh of Los Angeles Times declared the film "a warm remembrance of [Lopez’s] sensual spirit, and a celebration of his work, the film is also a vibrant period portrait of New York’s creative scenesters from a time when hippies cruised Central Park by day and the club Max’s Kansas City by night. While the film seeks to put [Lopez’s] name on the same level as the boldfaced names he rubbed elbows with, it is a stark, sorrowful reminder of the many artistic geniuses cut down in their prime by AIDS." Writing for The Hollywood Reporter, Vincent Boucher stated the film "vividly renders the look and feel of a bittersweet and all-too-brief era that would shape so much of the future of fashion…[it] pulsates with rare film clips and a seemingly endless trove of photographs, all set against the defining music of the time from the likes of Donna Summer, Isaac Hayes, Curtis Mayfield and Chic." In Film Journal, David Noh wrote that Lopez "is given his deserving due in this irresistibly seductive documentary, chronicling his inspirational—and very wild—life in the jungle of style. Addressing the latent racism that existed at the leading fashion magazines of the time and Lopez's efforts to bring inclusivity to the runway, Lauren Cochrane pointed out writing for The Guardian, London, Lopez "advocated diversity long before woke-ness was in fashion...If the dominant ideal of beauty in the 70s was a kind of athletic girl-next-door, epitomized by David Cameron favorite Cheryl Tiegs, Lopez championed something more unusual." In her review for Elephant Magazine (UK), Muriel Zagha wrote "Crump’s film persuasively suggests that Lopez was a revolutionary influence in fashion because of his awareness of ethnicity and unconventional, individual looks as beauty; not a widely shared point of view in those days."
