Moving on from the sombre and dramatic runway looks of last year, designers are opting for a more innovative, daring and colourful palette this season. It should come as no surprise therefore, given the “dare to wear” nature of the season, that the 1980’s is yet again ripe for revival. Designers such as Danielle Scutt went for a trashy and flashy 80s look, and Topshop Unique’s collection looks like it has jumped straight from the set of a Bananarama video with its shoulder pads, boxy tailoring, denim jumpsuits, and candy-coloured motifs.
The hairstyle for Doo.Ri’s spring 2009 runway show was straight and edgy
“The clothes have a flowing movement, and Doo.Ri wanted the hair to move as well,” says Orlando Pita, who styled the sexy tresses for Doo.Ri’s spring 2009 show.

“But I thought the hair should have toughness to it too. Since the fabrics in the collection are so soft, I wanted a contrast.” To create the toughness he describes, Pita chose a straight, voluminous, slightly mussed look. “It’s straight because straight hair always tends to look more hard-edge; wavy hair is more romantic and soft,” explains Pita, who purposely coiffed hair so that it hung in the face and wasn’t “beautifully placed and perfect.”

Nubar’s new Parisian collection is a set of sheers, pinks and french manicure shades.
Notre Dame Nude. Milky nude-pink creme. This one is similar to Hôtel Baby Pink in finish but it’s a slightly cooler shade of pink. Very hard to describe. It also has that 60’s-retro look to it. Three coats.

La Seine Shimmer (one coat) over a french manicure.

Eiffel Tower Sparkle (one coat) over a french manicure.

As you can see, these are all very soft, natural, feminine shades of pink and peach. They would make great colors for the traditional french manicure, or they can be worn alone either as sheers or with more coats for full coverage.
