As we noted after the show, the dystopian, dissident themes of Gareth Pugh's 2017 show (with John Vial and his Revlon team on hair, as well as Val Garland on makeup) took centre stage across many of the Fashion, Entertainment, and even general political publications.
We're super excited that the praise continues, with Vogue Paris, placing the show in their 'Best Of London Fashion Week' round-up. Check out the article, right here, or read our write-up and watch the show, right here.

'Gothic Glamour': John Vial & Revlon Join Forces with Gareth Pugh for LFW.
Revlon Professional Ambassador, and Hair Stylist John Vial teamed up with legendary London designer Gareth Pugh for what's being called Fierce and Fabulous Gothic Glamour, at this year's London Fashion Week.
The Pugh Show took centre-stage across dozens of fashion, politics, and pop-culture publications for its politically dissident themes, with the soundtrack eerily blaring “BUILD A WALL! BUILD A WALL!”, interspersed with spectral lullabies and Marilyn Manson.
John Vial said: 'The collaboration led by Gareth was all about intensely strong, fiercely independent women, the brief was for 'textured, sweaty, almost ratty' hair'.
