British designer Gareth Pugh has joined forces with footwear brand Melissa to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his eponymous label, with a retrospective of his iconic works in the store’s basement gallery. The retrospective marks the first installation in the footwear brand’s gallery space, Galeria Melissa, and will remain there until the end of May 2015.
Based in a dark black room, the monochromatic setting holds 6-8 of Pugh’s best archive looks, including pieces worn by Lady Gaga and Beyonce, all styled with Melissa shoes, in addition to the iconic Melissa x Gareth Pugh Ascension heel. Running alongside the exhibit is exclusive footage of Pugh’s work directed by filmmaker Ruth Hogben. Pugh shows at London Fashion Week this month for the first time in seven years.
