London Autumn/Winter '08
Gareth Pugh, Autumn/Winter '08 (scroll down to read the review)
Gareth Pugh
Not since a young Alexander McQueen broke onto the London catwalk in the early nineties has a controversial designer enjoyed such notoriety as Gareth Pugh. As we’ve all come to expect, Pugh’s autumn collection was certainly outlandish, but also abounding with the bud of commercial promise. Shapes, although brazen and unforgiving, were clean and consistently feathered with futuristically asymmetrical lines.
Coco Rocha opened the show by stomping out in a silver armadillo Samurai dress, hitting right on the unmistakable warrior princess trend that has been emerging from the catwalk this season.
This was the start of a warped Pugh wonderland that would lead onto the ‘Wizard of Oz’ and an ominous schoolyard of characters – Pugh’s classic distorted silhouette slivered with lashings of black goat fur, and gothic madams draped in black leather origami.
