Saks Pamper Lounge
We’re celebrating adding the wow-factor yet again Backstage at Fashion Theatre and at the hot destination that is now the Saks Pamper Lounge. This year The Clothes Show welcomed a new era where the line-up of brands, boutiques, celebs and inspirational stage features were more glittering than ever before and once again Saks people added hair and makeup magic in all-areas.
OFFICIAL HAIR AND MAKEUP PARTNER AT FASHION THEATRE
The Clothes Show 2015 was an excellent opportunity for newly appointed Saks Art Team members to join in. Our Creative Director Luke Pluckrose and longstanding Art Teamer Katy Adamson (owner, Saks Hair Northallerton) to create show-stopping hair-looks for models, dancers and celebs, assisted by stylists who jetted in from as far afield as Aberdeen and Exeter.
Luke says: “We’ve been the partner of choice for hair Backstage for four years now, and styling back-to-back shows over five days we have to be on the ball. This year we gave our stylists more of a challenge with our Hair Rings Show Look which also created a buzz on the Saks Pamper Lounge – a bit tricky to get the hang of, but of course they all rose to the occasion.
Luke continues: “It was great to get new Art Team members on board – strengthening our team means we’re able to meet increasing demand for our time, training and session-styling. Getting our creative stylists involved means we can call on more of them to assist too.”
MADE UP WITH SAKS BEAUTY
When Saks was asked to take care of makeup for the second year running, we jumped at the chance creating looks and heading up the 12-strong makeup team.
We were SO pleased to do this! We love showing people what our experts can do during session-styling with our Art Team.
Using mineral products kindly provided by Youngblood, the team created navy smoky eyes (also perfect for party season), luminous skin with an airbrushed look, subtle contouring and lips in nude shades.
SAKS PAMPER LOUNGE… BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND
Offering hair styles, glitzy manis and lashes appointments with fabulous help from Essie, L’Oréal Professionnel and Nouveau Lashes, the Saks Pamper Lounge feature was a sell-out success.
The Saks team did what they do best, creating great looks and giving expert advice, in a great atmosphere.
Making the Saks Pamper Lounge tick was down to our salons amazing teams. Michelle Shergill (Beauty Expert and owner Saks West Bridgford) was delighted to swap running super-busy local salon and utilise her skills in the ultimate hair and beauty pop-up.
RAISING AWARENESS FOR WOMEN’S CANCERS
Saks has a two-year charity partnership with The Eve Appeal raising funds for gynaecological cancers. The Clothes Show was perfect for raising awareness handing out leaflets to a younger audience and also encouraging #Saks4Eve donations.
Faces including Gemma Cairney and Joey Essex showed massive support for our partnership, helping us head towards of goal of smashing our £100,000 fundraising target in 2016.

The Show also showcased the brand’s Saksessories hair tools and accessories range with the sought-after Auto Curl selling like hotcakes.
