Runway Recap

WE’VE ROUNDED UP SOME OF THE TOP SPRING/SUMMER 2023 HAIR LOOKS FROM FASHION WEEKS AROUND THE WORLD THAT ARE SURE TO INSPIRE BOTH YOU AND YOUR CLIENTS THIS SEASON.

Braided Beauties

Oribe’s principal artist of global design, Kien Hoang, created a variety of braided styles for the Marrisa Wilson show at NYFW. Designed to complement a collection inspired by the designer’s Guyanese-American heritage, the looks were created with the brand’s Rough Luxury Molding Wax for hold before Hoang added clear beads to the ends.

Retro Silhouettes

Editorial stylist Lucas Wilson created retroinspired styles for the Prabal Gurung show for NYFW. Wilson and the team used Bumble & bumble’s Hairdresser’s Thickening Spray to add lift and volume at the roots for the vintage looks.

Natural Texture

At Stella McCartney’s show for Paris Fashion Week, Moroccanoil worked with editorial hairstylist Eugene Souleiman and the team to enhance the models’ natural beauty with styles that ranged from short to long to braids. Souleiman used the brand’s Curl Control Mousse to define and hydrate the hair.

’90s Grunge

Inspired by the classic and cool grunge looks of ’90s supermodels, editorial hairstylist Duffy created sleek and effortless looks using ghd styling tools for the Victoria Beckham show at Paris Fashion Week. Duffy used the brand’s Unplugged Cordless Hair Straightener to create soft and delicate movement in the models’ hair.

Classic with a Twist

For Susan Alexandra’s NYFW show, amika’s global artistic director, Naeemah LaFond, created looks for some of Hollywood’s biggest female comedians that were inspired by both their personal styles and ’90s supermodel hair. LaFond used the brand’s Headstrong Intense Hold Hairspray and a 1.25-inch curling iron to create big and bouncy curls.

Ballet Chic

Low buns took over the runway at the Jason Wu show at NYFW. Olaplex’s lead stylist, Jimmy Paul, wanted to create healthylooking hair that was inspired by a busy ’90s New York City girl. Paul used the brand’s No.7 Bonding Oil to smooth away any flyaways before braiding the hair and twisting it into a bun. He finished the look by leaving the ends of the bun out and used a flat iron to straighten and hold their shape.
