In this episode, Sophie Blowfield sits down with Sam McKnight MBE — the hairstylist behind some of the most iconic personalities, fashion houses and images in fashion history, and one of the most influential names the industry has ever known.
Over five decades, Sam has created hundreds of Vogue covers, styled the runways of Chanel, Vivienne Westwood and Balmain, spent twelve years alongside Karl Lagerfeld, and defined the supermodel era with the likes of Linda, Naomi, Christy and Cindy. He spent seven years as Princess Diana's stylist — the hands behind her famous crop — and today creates red-carpet looks for some of the most famous women in the world — Cate Blanchett, Kate Moss, Margot Robbie and Bella Hadid — while running his cult brand, Hair by Sam McKnight.
Sophie and Sam talk about his journey from a Scottish mining village to the heart of fashion, the spontaneity and creative freedom of the early years, why he's fighting for beauty teams to be credited and properly protected, and why, after five decades at the very top, success now simply means still being here and enjoying every minute.
