This ensemble accented with playing dice exemplifies the sense of humor at the heart of Patrick Kelly’s designs. Bernadine Morris of the New York Times said, “The clothes are good, but what matters most is the joyful spirit the designer projects. He seems to have fun making clothes, and his models look happy showing them.”
