Brigade
Defined by the muted palette and scaled down silhouettes of
Prada or the beautifully suited and booted elegance of Jil
Sander, this trend gives men fresh licence to ditch scruffy in
favour of dapper sophistication. The clean cut tailoring,
clear complexions, defined jaw lines and well crafted head
hugging styles delivered hair outlines kept lean through the
sides with length through the crown for variety and
expression. Texture is modern matte or styled flat for a super
groomed, just washed gleam. Colours are kept natural and
solid. Brigade is set to really separate the men from the boys
with grown-up masculine glamour. |
East
This trend
capitalises on the influences of all things Asian from the
worlds fashion stage. It is a blend of functional discipline
and chaotic textures and shapes. Think Issey Miyake’s origami
inspired gowns and Comme des Garcons experimental shapes and
high impact colours. Hair shapes come in rounded head hugging
bobs with shorter internal shapes or longer lengths of
anarchic loose waves or ripples of thick healthy hair. The
East trend revels in brunettes that embrace playful
individuality with shots of cool and warm tones through the
depths.

New Romance
Ultra feminine
styles hit just the right note of classy glamour: the floral
chiffons or the cool tailored safari suits of Stella
McCartney; the fit and flare sundresses and rich brocades of
Dolce and Gabbana and even the pastels, prints and layers of
the usually garish Galliano. Rose lips, doe eyes and peachy
complexions team with length, volume and super shiny organic
shapes. Curls are piled and tumbling, straight hair is either
full and natural or sculpted. Colours are deep darks or
golden; soft highlights or warm lowlights add interest and
intense tones deliver glorious gloss to every strand.

School's Out
Fresh faced
super model Agness Deyn is the poster child of the Schools Out
trend, aim somewhere between prim and punky and you will nail
this look in no time. Luella’s button down blouses and liberty
print Ra Ra skirts twinned with a pale complexion DM’s capture
Schools Out style. Strong hair looks come in deconstructed
shapes, hidden lengths and shattered outlines all caught up in
bobs and asymmetric bangs. Colour adds quirkiness with blondes
and silvery grey or brunettes with chocolate and caramel. The
effect is all sweet rebellion.
