ACCESSORISING YOUR HAIR: WHAT ARE THE TRENDS?



The bigger the better this season, designers were not concerned about playing around with bold colours and statement embellishments in preparation for the summer sunshine. Many of the trends reflect the embodiment of femininity with aspects of bohemian wanderlust – stereotypically girly with princess motifs.

FLOWERS:

In previous years, flowers have been used as applique patterns on garments (as seen in many of the Chanel campaigns) whereas, instead of being subtly distributed across an outfit; Dolce & Gabbana made a declaration of uniqueness with large pink roses entwinned within large curls and thick braids.

In consideration of delicate approach’s Rodarte’s floral look connotes aspects of romance, almost in the sense of a fairy-tale character.

PRINCESS TIARA’S:

Continuing the bold statements, Dolce & Gabbana exude opulence and royalty with their emphasis on the glistening tiara’s that top off the outfit. The use of vivid colours remains a central concept to the brands iconic ethos. Although this may be slightly ‘out-there’ and not ideal of everyday use, this does help to forecast trends for party/event wear.

HAIR SCARVES:










A major trend in reinforcing the bohemian-wanderlust vibe, hair scarves have been seen all over the runway, styled out in a multitude of ways. For instance, Atlien’s use of scarves embedding within braids – not only does this add a glamorous dimension to the look but the incorporated of added texture creates a depth within the hair. Most importantly this is a trend that can be easily replicated at home.
