Pamela Hogg, the renowned fashion designer behind stunning catsuits for Lady Gaga, Rihanna, and Kylie Minogue, has passed away at 64. Hogg died peacefully on November 26 at St Joseph's Hospice in Hackney, surrounded by loved ones. While the family has not disclosed the medical cause, her long-term illness likely led to her hospice stay. In a tribute, friends and fellow creatives have hailed Hogg as a 'warrior queen' and 'revered Scottish fashion queen.' Her designs have left an indelible mark on British fashion, with the iconic catsuit being her most enduring contribution. Born in Paisley near Glasgow, Hogg's artistic journey began at the Glasgow School of Art and Royal College of Art in London. Her fearless approach to fashion, combining latex, mesh, leather, and PVC, made her a fixture in London's underground club scene by the mid-1980s. Throughout her career, she dressed global superstars, including Princess Diana and Debbie Harry. Hogg's creative spirit extended beyond fashion. She was a musician, fronting the band 'Rubbish' in the late 1970s and later forming the band Doll in 1993. Her artistic expression also included music video direction and gallery exhibitions. As the fashion world mourns the loss of this trailblazing designer, her legacy continues to inspire. Hogg's remarkable legacy serves as a testament to her unapologetic creativity, innovative spirit, and the profound impact she had on the world of fashion.
