The Pastel Suite from redCHOCOLATE is the harmonious contrast between science and nature.  It is ethereal, floral hues woven through geometric cuts.  It is soft against firm with curves against straight lines.  And as a result it is absolutely breathtaking.

 “I’ve always had a fascination with pastels, especially as hair color,” says David Adams, cofounder and president of redCHOCOLATE. “Pastel colors can be challenging from a technical standpoint, but the results are worth it—I’m so proud of how these first images turned out.”

This is the first of the image collections from redCHOCOLATE, cofounded in 2008 by Adams and Virginia Meyer. It’s a collection of six images that showcase the stunning results of an inspired fusion between London and New York, beauty and fashion, technique and art.

The brains and artistry behind this collection are a veritable dream team of the beauty and fashion industries from around the world. To make the Pastel Suite a reality, Adams joined forces with globally renowned editorial artist Peter Gray, Aveda global makeup master Rudy Miles, and former creative director for Wella/Sebastian International and well-known photographer Robert Lobetta. redCHOCOLATE hair color educator Lupe Voss supported Adams in hair color. This major-league lineup gathered in Minneapolis, Minnesota to create the looks for these photos over a long, and productive, three days.
