HOW LITTLE RICHARD CHANGED THE FASHION AND MUSIC INDUSTRY

If there’s anyone who knew how to make an entrance, it was Little Richard. On the Dick Cavett Show in December 1970, Little Richard sauntered out, dressed in a majestic brocade ensemble: tunic, cape, matching bell bottoms, and a golden Lurex choker with taupe platform boots peeking out from underneath. His jet-black hair, styled in his distinctive fluffy bouffant, was accessorized with a headband reminiscent of his protégé, Jimi Hendrix, and his ferocious eyes were lined to perfection.
