It saddens me to write this post. Atlanta's own designer Kirk Kelley has past away. I do not have specifics nor details of and/or how, but that is irrelevant. This post is to recognize him as an A M A Z I N G designer. I haven't had the pleasure myself to meet the designer personally, but have heard great things about him. My first time seeing his work in person was at The Fashion Lounge, hosted by Rashad Productions, Lipstick Productions and Jordan Steede. He showed his Men's Fall 2010 collection and Women's Spring 2011 collection. My friend Rashea and I were in awe. His menswear was so eclectic yet fashionable and we loved every bit of his women's electric swimwear! Most Atlanta's fashion industry knew of Kirk Kelley and his amazing work, he has been featured in numerous independent magazines and fashion shows. I would like everyone who hasn't seen his work to take a moment and view the images below and google him. As I look forward to making my steps closer into the fashion industry as a designer, Kirk Kelley was truly an inspiration. You will truly be missed but never forgotten! My prayers goes out to his family and friends...
