The legendary Scottish fashion designer <\/span>Pam Hogg<\/span><\/a> has passed away, according to a statement on her official Instagram page. \u201cThe Hogg Family is deeply saddened to announce the passing of our beloved Pamela. We are grateful in the knowledge that her final hours were peaceful and surrounded by the loving care of cherished friends and family,\u201d began the statement.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe wish to thank all the staff of St Joseph\u2019s Hospice, Hackney for the beautiful support they provided for Pamela in her final days,\u201d it continued. \u201cPamela\u2019s creative spirit and body of work touched the lives of many people of all ages and she leaves a magnificent legacy that will continue to inspire, bring joy and challenge us to live beyond the confines of convention. Pamela will continue to live in our hearts and minds. A glorious life lived and loved.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Born in Paisley in 1951, Hogg studied Fine Art and Textiles at Glasgow School of Art, before moving to London to study for her masters degree at the Royal College of Art. While in London, music became a huge creative outlet for Hogg, fronting a band called Rubbish in the late 1970s and then becoming a part of the Blitz Club scene.<\/span><\/p>\n

A legendary nightclub in London\u2019s Covent Garden, the Blitz Club was a crucial venue for the 1980s New Romantic movement. <\/span>According to the designer, her first forays into making her own clothes was as a result of the club\u2019s strict dress code, enforced by its infamous doorman Steve Strange. From there, Hogg released her first collection <\/span>Psychedelic Jungle<\/span><\/em> in 1981 and became part of the \u2018New Wave\u2019 group of designers, inspired by punk aesthetics, androgyny, bold, colourful hair and futuristic beauty looks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite never bending to fashion\u2019s mainstream, Hogg\u2019s singular aesthetic found fans in many pop figures including Debbie Harry, Siouxsie Sioux, TV presenter Paula Yates, and The Cult frontman Ian Astbury. The catsuit is inarguably the item that Hogg is most known for, having created chevron striped all-in-ones for stars including Kylie Minogue, Lady Gaga and Rihanna to name a few. \u201cEvery woman who\u2019s ever tried on one of my catsuits has said, \u2018Oh my God, I can\u2019t wear that\u2019,\u201d she <\/span>told<\/span><\/a>The Guardian<\/span><\/em> in 2018. \u201cI always tell them to just try it on. When they do, they instantly feel empowered.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Hogg may be gone but she has left an indelible mark on fashion. Her designs \u2013 which seamlessly and fearlessly fused fashion, punk and fetish \u2013 will go on to influence generations after generations, as they have done before. In the statement released today, the Hogg family closed out their tribute by saying that \u201cPamela will continue to live in our hearts and minds\u201d because of a \u201cglorious life, lived and loved\u201d \u2013 a touching sentiment that will surely be felt in the fashion industry and beyond.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
