More Collections Like This One

Hypnose

Hypnose

Collection: Spring/Summer 2016
Leading French stylist Christophe Gaillet shares Hypnose, his latest collection of simple but elegant shapes and striking shades. The shoot features two color models, showcasing two very different looks. On the dark side, you see a rich, inky espresso brunette emboldened with flashes of violet and cerulean blue, and a shine line of shimmering brown. The blonde is equally bold, with pastel green and blue running through the hair, adding a pearlescent effect. The playful colors on both models are brought further to life through ethereal, fairy tale styling.

Steamrolled

Steamrolled

Collection: Spring/Summer 2016
Danielle Keasling delves into the beauty of steampunk by replacing Victorian top hats and plumage with hairpieces inspired by mechanical gears, round brass goggles and the wheels of steamdriven machinery.

Pop Art

Pop Art

Collection: Spring/Summer 2016
Girls just wanna have fun! Hairstylist Shirley Gordon's inspiration behind the Pop Art collection was none other than pop culture, particularly the '80s heyday of Cyndi Lauper and the bold colors of graffiti. The shapes are more contemporary -- that is, with a spin of pop culture and a whole lot of texture.
