y taking the concept of extravagance, wrapping it in gowns suitable for a Tudor queen and integrating it with unique updos that twist and braid like snakes and
ladders, Toronto-based hairstylist Jason Kearns shares his own original notion of opulence. “The word ‘opulence’ was mentioned to me and the idea just clicked,” says Kearns, who then took about two and a half months to transform his inspiration into his latest set of photographs. “I feel as if these images have a timeless element,” he adds. “And I think they really show how
styles, and you don’t have to care what the trends are.”
