ABOUT

ABOUT

Kerry Panaggio’s 20-year journey in fashion began with a BA in Fashion History and Culture, followed by a successful work placement at British Vogue.

Soon after Kerry looked to specialise in styling, and at the age of 19 began working at American Vogue, assisting iconic stylists such as Hamish Bowles, Phyllis Posnick & Tonne Goodman.

At this time Kerry also worked as a freelance fashion assistant to The Guardian & The Observer and stylists Karl Templer, Caroline Sieber & Jane How - working with legendary photographers including Bruce Weber, Mert and Marcus, Nick Knight, David Simms, Willy Vanderperre, Mario Testino, Glen Lutchford & David Bailey.

Kerry then became the first assistant for Nancy Rohde, working on, amongst others, the Dries Van Noten runway shows in Paris, Philip Lim runway shows in New York and global campaigns for Gap.
After completing a Masters Degree in Fashion History and Culture at London College of Fashion, Kerry took up the position of first assistant and studio manager for Katy England. Highlights included Givenchy runway shows in Paris, Jil Sander shows in Milan, and Kate Moss for Topshop campaigns with Nick Knight. In addition, Kerry sourced garments from around the globe for a special Alexander McQueen archive shoot, which featured in Another Magazine and coincided with the V&A’s Savage Beauty Exhibition.

Drawing on her love of fashion history and anthropology, Kerry has spent the last 10 years styling commercial shoots for a vast array of global brands. Whether this is designing costumes for Bruised Sky with Gary Kent & Geoff Bell, dressing Jungle and their iconic dancers for their Best Band performance at The Brit Awards or dressing the entire Mercedes F1 team in 1950’s clothing for Netflix Drive to Survive, Kerry is always keen to pursue briefs that require characters.

ARCHIVE

In 2015, Kerry founded a commercial fashion styling company with the aim of reducing waste and providing a larger selection of garments in fittings and on set.  This has grown into a vast three-story rail space, housing thousands of commercially minded pieces that create authentic characters which look great on camera and support, rather than overtake a narrative.
