The primary complement to designer Jeremy Scott’s ladies-who-lunch theme was the parade of sky-scraping bouffants. It was a tribute to the traditional teased model in its many iconic iterations, from Breakfast at Tiffany’s Holly Golightly to Cindy Crawford within the ’90s. “It was speculated to appear to be she did it herself with, after all, a heightened style sense to it,” explains Danilo, who amped up the amount on the gravity-defying silhouette through the use of the French Lace methodology—backcombing with a hairbrush as an alternative of a comb for a “fluffier” end—and blasting roots with R+Co’s Dry Volume spray earlier than setting the teased twist with Vicious strong hold hairspray. And when you observed a scattering of contrasting highlights woven by way of, that was no accident. “A part of sweeping it again was to showcase these chunky placements of colour,” says Danilo, name-checking references together with Golightly’s golden-streaked brunette bouffant and Crawford’s face-framing strips of blonde. The key behind the short-term tints? Customized-mixed Coloration Wow hair powder palettes utilized to random sections.

Then, between the bouffants got here the cascades of lovely rainbow-beaded field braids—one other nod to the ’90s with a playful twist on the last decade’s love of tartan. “We have been mimicking plaid with these completely different, asymmetrical layers of colour that actually introduced one other textile dimension,” explains Danilo, who was sourcing the look’s “gumball”-sized plastic beads up till 1:30 a.m. the night earlier than. “You may see it within the motion…when one layer would brush away, extra brilliance of colour would come shining by way of. It was a little bit of a dance of sample.”
