Sassoon has been working with Phumelela, who provide free, inclusive mental health support in Eswatini, tackling gender-based violence, suicide, addiction and youth rehabilitation. In Eswatini, 1 in 3 girls experience sexual violence by the age of 18. 48% of women face sexual violence in their lifetime. The country also has the world’s highest male suicide rate. This work is urgent, and your support can make a real difference. £10 a month could provide 5 free counselling sessions. £20 a month could help run the dedicated suicide hotline for 2 weeks. £50 a month could support 5 outreach trips to rural areas as well as 10 free counselling sessions.

LILITH This was a presentation I put together at the House of Sassoon, Greek Street to be promoted to senior colour director. The collection was inspired by Adam’s first wife Lilith, she was the original feminist who refused to be subservient to men. after facing conflicts with both Adam and God over her actions, she fled the garden of Eden and when she refused to return, her children were killed, Lilith went on to marry Lucifer and become the mother of all Demons. Lilith is normally portrayed as having long or hair and in images depicting her is often embraced by a snake which represents Lucifer. As Lilith moves through her story, the depiction of her changes and her hair becomes black and she is often surrounded by creatures of the night like owls and cats. The final images of Lilith when she has become the mother of Demons shows her as having large wings and horns similar to depictions that you would see of Lucifer. The Anti-American Dream One of the other inspirations for this collection was a specific time in America. In the 1940s America had gone through the Great depression and the American dream was born. Businesses were thriving and the idea of the white picket fence happy husband and wife and the two children were spread across the world as the ideal way of life. While this depiction of a perfect life was spread across the surface of America behind closed doors there was a very different counterpoint. Pinups like Betty Page and magazines like bizarre which was illustrated by John Willie spread a message of a darker more fetishise way of life. At the same time Witchcore became a style which was adopted and portrayed in a sexual way with pinups being dressed as devils and Demons.
