Belle Epoque

What happens when turn-of-the-century style meets head-turning 'dos? Paul Gehring's Belle Epoque collection provides the answer: a spectacle of stunning hair!

Inspired by the elegant and refined Belle Epoque period, which took place in Europe from about 1870-1914, international stylist Paul Gehring and his team designed the Belle Epoque collection, a dazzling array of both eye-catching twists on and classic iterations of vintage hairdressing.

Check out photos from the collection to see his coif creations!
