McGrath, who was awarded a DBE in 2020 by Queen Elizabeth II for her services to the fashion and beauty
industry and diversity, will be presented with the award at the 2022 Clio Awards hosted by Jai Rodriguez on April 28 at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in New York.
“We selected Pat because her boundless creative output has made her a household
name, as famous for her craft as the faces she is known for making up,” said Nicole
Purcell, chief executive officer of Clio. “Pat has not only pushed boundaries with her
art, but her prolific work on the catwalk, magazine covers and advertising campaigns
has established trends at the highest levels in culture and moved merchandise for
the most influential names in fashion.”
The honor comes on the heels of the success of McGrath’s Pat McGrath Labs x
Bridgerton collection, which includes an
eye shadow palette, body shimmer, a blush trio and more and was restocked in
January after the line sold out within days of its December 2021 launch.
