Bleedin heck kiddas! This new videography to Pugh's current collection truly speaks high volumes. I personally was completely fixated and entranced during the whole viewing. Gareth Pugh continues to push the envelope and remains one of thee most electrifying and innovative designers in today's industry. Not to mention, Gareth currently remains my favorite designer and has been for quite sometime now. I am a proud owner of a spring 2008 special collection piece made of black/white Organza top w/ PVC Scaly Bib. The following is thee official transcript from the show itself. Dig it kiddas.
"Florence–Ruth Hogben’s video of Gareth Pugh‘s special Pitti Uomo collection was masterful in capturing the lauded young designer’s brand. Whether or not it truly conveyed the beauty–and dare I say wearability?–of the actual clothes is another story. Indeed, Pugh put out some truly extraordinary pieces, some of which belong only on stage or on Daphne Guinness, and others which any fashion lover can dream of wearing.
The gowns, shown on models during the reception, were to be worn–not displayed. A favorite was a blue/turquoise style, which proved–to me, at least–that Pugh is not only worth his weight in showmanship, but also in desirability. There is a reason the luxury fashion houses watch him closely: it’s because he’s special.
Finally, I cannot stress the beauty of this ancient space, as you can see from the images. In this instance, fashion is art and at is fashion–there’s no argument about it." -Fashion writer Lauren Sherman
