Black Hair: Proenza Schouler Spring/Summer 2015

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2015 - Official Coverage - Best Of Runway Day 4

If you are searching for a hairstyle to help aid hair growth while still being stylish then braids could be the answer that you are seeking. During the Proenza Schouler Spring/Summer 2015 fashion show models trotted down the runway with hair fashioned in two long French braids. The hairstyle is a protective carefree style that needs little maintenance yet has added drama due to the length.

Hair: Going Natural On The Runway?

Hair: Going Natural On The Runway? Well it sure seems like it. Many designers have chosen to have some of our models rock “the natural look” aka an afro for their runway show. It was seen at the Givenchy Fall 2015 RTW and Stella McCartney Fall 2015 collection. This look can be absolutely beautiful and shows confidence and individualism when it is groomed and shaped nicely. So if you rock and Afro perfect, you should be confident with your own hair texture and not feel shamed to wear it; it is beautiful. However I hope this just doesn’t become a FAD or the industry trying to make you feel that this is the only way to wear your hair or that this is how all our hair looks like. As black woman we know we all have different textures of hair rather it’s curly, kinky or wavy. So please be confident with your hair alone and whichever way you feel like wearing it wear it like that.

But our question to you is will you rock the Fro?

Black Hair Do or Don’t? Giambattista Valli Spring 2015

Giambattista Valli Spring 2015

Here at the office we were kind of torn with this look. Half loved it and the other half loved it too, but felt the look could not be translated for the streets. Is this a look only for the runways never to be repeated in day to day life?

Orlando Pita who styled the model’s hair for the Giambattista Valli Spring 2015 show said the look caused the girls to feel absolutely beautiful. Isn’t that how great hair SHOULD make you feel? Okay, so a point goes to the look itself, but how did Oliver create this style? Pita slipped on a polka veil after first pulling the model’s tresses into a low ponytail. He then secured the look by tying a thick ribbon at the top, fashioning it into a chic cute bow. Oliver said regarding the look, “I’m dressing up the ponytail to give it a couture feel.”

This look brings the drama so of course could not be worn for just any occasion. Nonetheless, a night out on the town or for a fashionable event and this would be a very stylish option. So then, it’s time for you to way in is this hairstyle a do or a don’t?

Marc Jacobs Spring 2015 Hair Inspiration

Marc Jacobs Spring 2015 Hair Inspiration2

Shaggy hair can look very groovy baby, yeah! Marc Jacobs models for his spring 2015 runway show sported very care-free shaggy bobs. Their locks had a very retro vibe as if the models could of been walking through a time machine from the 60’s and 70’s. Punk style has definitely seen a rival in recent years and it even made us think back to the punk inspired Met ball not so long ago.

Nevertheless, would you believe that the Marc Jacobs models wore wigs to achieve their Joey Ramone-esqe bowl cut hairstyles? Before the show the wigs had been dyed jet black and then hairstylists custom fitted the wigs to the model’s heads. Wigs are an excellent way to achieve styles quickly or that may be harmful to your real hair. This show emphasizes that when made and fitted correctly wigs can make a powerful statement just as much as the fashions they accompany.

Jennifer Hudson looked great all night long for this year’s Oscars Awards. From her bold red carpet choice of a yellow gown to her chic black dress worn for her emotional performance and Vanity Fair after-party Hudson simply looked stunning. We loved the hair changes that occurred as well, because so many women do not realize the diversity that can be achieved even with shorter hairstyles. Don’t believe us, well take a look at Jennifer’s Oscar hairstyles and we are sure your mindset shall change!
