2013 Forecast

2013 starts off in the past. This time, in the 90s! Wow it feels pretty weird to say that. There are strong influences from the 60s and 70s but its the simplicity of the 90s (compared to the flashy 80s)mixed with a modern bold edge. It’s pretty much 1920-1999 lol. We start to see larger shapes except this time tailored, with structure. What’s funny is I always wondered how one would...

HAIRnews: FALL /WINTER 2012 SPECIAL

It’s AUTUMN!!! I’ve gone though a ton of research material and condensed it into what I think are the fundamentals for autumn and winter 2012.

A major trend this season is mixing patterns as well as...
