For the Spring/Summer 2016 Osklen Collection, designer Oskar Metsavaht used sustainable silks, organic cottons and linens to tell the story of a young city girl traveling to visit the Ashaninka tribe of indigenous people in a remote Brazilian village. Her journey evolved in her look from luxe and self-confident to a more self-actualized and artistic woman. Playing up the details of the story through the hair, Antoinette Beenders, Aveda Global Creative Director created an intricate knotted twist to show the look of the girl after her time with the tribe. “The devil is in the details with soft wisps of hair throughout the sides, crown and in the back, all reminiscent of feathers,” says Antoinette. “The knot is simply folded up with the ends flared to provide an artistic look while also getting the hair away from the face so she can better explore this new world.”
