18th Century Hair Inspiration:

WILDFOX AW14 Lookbook 'Let me eat cake'

After researching different hairstyles of this period and looking at contemporary work by current hair designer's, I came across this fabulous work in WILDFOX's AW2014 lookbook, 'Let me eat cake', for their latest eyewear collection. I instantly fell in love with their concept. With the inspiration from my fringe work with the colours and flowers, this highly feminine and delicate styling really caught my eye. I particularly enjoy the historical elements of shape, texture and powdered colours. I originally wanted to use these elements in my designing, but also keeping the contemporary twist. The pastel colour palette and patterns that have been used for this shoot have particularly inspired me to experiment with a more modern palette, as pastel hair is very much something that has been on trend recently. The use of flowers, feathers and decorative items that have be beautifully positioned over the hairstyle are very flattering, and I am so inspired by these romantic looks.
