CONTRAST is the secret of great photographers, who use it to make images leap off the page. Showing rough against sleek and fresh against classic architecture, Luis Alvarez, photographer and co-founder of Aquage, uses contrast as the defining element for his latest work of art, Contrasto.

One more interesting element: The zigzagging light was created by Alvarez's own hand cupping a light source!

Undulating waves were thermally designed using Aquage Working Spray; basket-woven ribbon was created with Defining Gel. aquage.com

"A luxe light source coming from a mix of colour and wet to dry session styling. The collection was inspired by erosion; metals left to erode outside create amazing colourations and merges of tones which were transferred onto the hair like a canvas. The hair was then styled in a session way for freedom of movement and texture whilst still keeping light reflective imagery for the final look." Darren Ambrose

It was in the movement of life, the stirring of the world that Jordan Hone of Sydney's Sloans of Lane Cove found inspiration for the Overture collection.
"The way a symphony of individuals becomes one entity-and for each note they create, the movement and feeling lasts only an instant and then is gone forever. It is the essence of these fleeting moments that this collection aims to capture," says Hone.

With movement comes texture, and Overture has whisked Jordan into a new phase of experimentation. Renowned for her polished editorial work, which boasts clean lines, minimalism, and a sense of feminine glamour, Hone yearned to move into a darker space with Overture.

She was inspired, in part, by the Chanel F/W 14/15 show, specifically the use of varying textures across crimping, braiding, and natural hair finishes, which subtly inspired the intricate melding of textures throughout in Overture.
