Rare GARETH PUGH M Gold Metallic & Black Avant Garde Cardigan Sweater

GOLD METAL/BLACK AVANT GARDE CARDIGAN by GARETH PUGH A dramatic, avant garde, two-layer cardigan by English fashion designer, Gareth Pugh. Pugh interned with Rick Owens in Paris whilst studying fashion design and his influence is most evident in Pugh's creations. Pugh and Owens, along with Owen's wife, Michèle Lamy, have since partnered with the Owens-Lamy husband-wife team funding Pugh's collection development. Pugh's fashion aesthetic as "fashion-as-performance art" in the tradition of Alexander McQueen, John Galliano, and Vivienne Westwood. Pugh draws inspiration from Britain's extreme club scene and his experimentation with form and volume leads to creations that are at times wildly shaped, massive structures. Pugh describes his designs as being "about the struggle between lightness and darkness," and this cardi are signature in that Pugh theme.
