The Anna Sui collection was inspired by various textures, including ruffles, lace and fringe. So Garren used R+Co products to create various looks based on length and texture—the main look being a modern version of the rolled hair of the ‘40s.

Christian Siriano’s F/W 2017 collection was inspired by grooved, layered sand formations with strong, expressive shapes. To complement his collection, he enlisted Sebastian Professional Lead International Stylist Anthony Cole to create a look that incorporated the natural elements of his designs. What Anthony ended up creating was a textured fishtail embellished with copper wiring—meant to evoke a “mixture of a victorian and renaissance woman walking through the desert.”

Asian influences permeated European decorative art and high fashion in the late 1800s and into the new century. WHIT’s collection imagined how working people would have integrated those traditional motifs into their daily uniforms, and Elie Camoro used this inspiration to create a structured, folded pony—a perfect complement to the bold designs.

Ryan Roche describes her collection as “hopelessly optimistic” this season with a statement-making, bold palette. So James Pecis created a pretty, yet less romantic and almost tomboy-like look to reflect the strong aesthetic of the collection.

This season, the Marchesa collection drew inspiration from Imperial China, known for its appreciation for grandiose and awe-inducing style. To juxtapose the sensual feel of Marchesa’s aesthetic, Moroccanoil Global Ambassador Antonio Corral Calero created a look that exudes romanticism and naivety—a loose, knotted chignon adorned with a velvet bow.
