A Wave Away

Collection: Fall/Winter 2013
Hair fashion transforms into fine art as compelling cobalt and cerulean blues fade to black in Gila Rut Aveda Salon's "Blue Girl" series. 'From Gila Rut's new "Emerge" collection, "Blue Girl" is a study of how dimension and direction can emerge and merge to offer pure couture for color and cut.
From front to side to back, "Blue Girl" makes the striking point that from every angle and section, 'style' takes on its own power of creative perspective. Edges are edgier, lines align in ordered ways-and the finish is flawless! All sections unite and end in dramatic conclusion.
The Gila Rut Aveda Salon design team introduced their own signature Giclee color technique. The unique process allows for a rich, clear reproduction of color tones and hues-much like the printed digital quality of fine art. In "Blue Girl," the rich winter blues of cobalt and cerulean are vibrant and lustrous throughout on the upper sections, blending into black in the bottom half to line and define. Angles are asymmetric to frame the features.

Secret clubs are her "after life"--after work, after school and after dark. Dressed in chains, spikes and leather, with no plans to return to her cozy nest until well after dawn, she's rockin' the beat of the underground youth culture where dressing the part often walks a fine line between fashion and costume.

Collection: Fall/Winter 2013
Patrick Cameron's new collection, Spellbound - The Lost Art of Vintage Hair, takes us on a journey of glamour through the 1930s, '40s, '50s and '60s. Using classic techniques - the invaluable basis of the hairdressing craft - Patrick presents iconic vintage looks and their modern, up-to-the-minute equivalent 'red carpet' interpretations.

Patrick will demonstrate 8 styles step-by-step with his unique flair for education and larger-than-life personality. Spellbound is a truly iconic show and is guaranteed to evoke a magic atmosphere complemented by dazzling couture and unbounded glamour.

"Vintage-inspired hair plays a massive part in fashion," says Patrick, "and I felt it was very important for today's market to demonstrate how to create these looks using the correct methods. Working as a global educator, I have realised that some basic hairdressing skills are disappearing, and it is essential to show how relevant these techniques are to achieving the cutting-edge styles of today."

Patrick continues, "I am fascinated by the allure of old Hollywood, and I have often adopted it as a reference in developing my work over the years, but I have never before focused primarily on actual 'foundation techniques'. In order to present a cohesive and informative show that is beneficial to a wide audience, I wanted to bridge the gap between classic and trend. The period I have focused on is truly the golden era of dressing hair."

The collection is divided into four segments, each representing a different decade and the quintessential looks and artistry of that period.
