New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2014
ANN YEE - Spring/Summer 2014 Trend Report
Yee was inspired "by the history of urban Detroit, Michigan - USA, its current crumbling economic state, combined with an appreciation for the survivalist spirit of the city as it moves towards a transformation. The collection entitled - Resurgence - revels in the structured, metallic elements of the auto industry and the draped, angular silhouettes of the city's weathered buildings against the skyline."
How to get the look:
Step 1: Mist dry hair with Aveda Pure AbundanceTM Style PrepTM and blow dry straight with a round brush. This will add the texture and grip needed to create this look.
Step 2: Separate out 3 sections of hair (left, middle, right) and prep the 2 side sections with Aveda PhomollientTM Styling Foam to ensure a clean look that adds shine without build up or weight.
Step 3: Carefully begin to gather hair from the temple and form a tight, delicate braid down to the nape of the neck. Secure with a clear hair tie.
Step 4: Repeat on the other side and tie both sections together at the nape of the neck.
Step 5: Gather the top half of the middle section of hair and begin roll and pin into a structured twist that kisses the braid just behind the ear.
Step 6: Flat iron the remainder of hair to fall over the shoulders and clear hair tie. Use Aveda Control ForceTM Firm Hold Hair Spray to smooth hair into place for a firm, long lasting hold.
Step 7: Finish the look with a fine mist of Aveda Brilliant Spray on ShineTM to eliminate flyaways.
