Roksanda’s latest collection showcased bold and exaggerated shapes with striking colours, textures and patterns – and in other pieces a quieter, more fragile femininity.

“Drawing inspiration from sculptor Phyllida Barlow, the hair for the show was designed with a mix of textures to reflect both control and graphic structure while also embracing fragility and sensibility. We wanted the hair to be a continuation of last season’s concept—pushed-back, sleek, and contained—while introducing elements of texture. This was seen vividly in the semi-looped ponytail, which mimicked both sculpture and hair shape. There was a two tier approach to the hair: one style had a gelled, pushed-back effect using the Cosmic Blowdry Jelly, while the other was a more broken-up, textured look. Some were wet – achieved by saturating the hair with the Glow Spray Serum for a sleek finish, while others were dry and we treated the hair with Nymph Salt Spray to create a dry, textured effect,”
– Anna.

Featuring works of the artist Kaye Donachie, Erdem, the collection reimagines archetypal feminine silhouettes with a modern, ethereal touch.

“Erdem’s collection, inspired by Scottish painter Kaye Donachie, is a masterful play of beautiful patterns and sculptural shapes with exaggerated silhouettes. This allows the hair to remain simple – paired back yet elevated, polished and effortlessly chic. Each model embodies strength and confidence, looking like the best version of themselves – an extension of Erdem’s characters, forming an army of beautiful women. This look celebrates individuality by enhancing each model’s natural texture. A tailored approach ensures products are selected specifically for each model’s hair type. The key is minimal product use – creating a polished yet effortlessly soft finish,”

“The inspiration was 70’s, as a designer Helen Anthony loves to reference that era and for this show he told me his theme was Gemini so I suggested creating dual personalities with the hair looks too. Like the Gemini sign, one twin is the impulsive twin that we styled with big, voluminous hair and the other twin is the curious twin with a cool girl mullet and curls. With the huge hair looks, we split into 4 characters – The Debbie after Debbie Harry, The Dolly after Dolly Parton, The Amy after Amy Winehouse and The Pammie after Pamela Anderson. For the cool hair look my inspiration was Nadia Lee Cohen, a British artist, film producer and character that’s super cool. This look is about creating shapes at the front of the hair, almost an anti-look to what the hair wanted to do, so the curls coming forward rather than back,”
– Lead Hair Stylist Johanna Cree Brown shares.

Blending nature’s beauty with the ingenuity of human craftsmanship, the collection reflects Helen Anthony’s core values of craftsmanship, innovation, and diversity, while embracing contrasts and creative freedom.

The Hair: Loose, low ponytails that exuded casual elegance. Hair was styled to appear free-flowing, natural, and undone, striking the perfect balance between simplicity and sophistication.
The Products: Revlon Professional Modular Mousse to create body, moisture, and shine, ensuring the hair maintained its light, fluid movement while staying polished.

“For the Talia Byre AW25 presentation, we wanted the hair to feel effortlessly chic—minimal but with a touch of luxury. The loose, low ponytail is timeless, but by keeping it soft, undone, and free-flowing, we created a modern, wearable look. Using Revlon
Professional Modular Mousse allowed us to enhance the hair’s natural movement while adding moisture and shine, ensuring it felt healthy and luminous on the runway.”

Inspired by the effortless glamour of Valley of the Dolls and the iconic aesthetic of Edie Sedgwick at Andy Warhol’s Factory parties, both the collection and hair looks paying homage to the iconic style of the 1960s.

INDOLA products from the new styling range were used to achieve voluminous crowns and sleek, glossy ponytails. The hairstyles completed the 1960’s aesthetic, helping bring Huishan Zhang’s AW25 vision to life.

“The hair looks were created with a little bit of volume throughout and at the crown of the head, creating quite a round shape to emphasise that classic 60s nod, but still quite minimalist to suit Huishan’s aesthetic,”
– Johanna Cree Brown, Lead Hair Stylist.

“The inspiration for this look is a continuation of the patterns and panels we’ve explored in previous seasons. We wanted to mimic elements of
the patterns and textures within Chet’s designs by incorporating high gloss crimped panels at the back and sides of the hair. To achieve this, we used hero Authentic Beauty Concept”

SS Daley presented a combined womenswear and menswear show. The designer drew inspiration from female British artists in the early period of the 20th century. Think: British classics, reworked through hand drawn prints, felted textures and voluminous silhouettes.

Hair Inspiration

“In line with Stephen’s vision, we explored the interplay of masculinity and femininity in both the men’s and women’s hairstyles. The looks feature beautifully crafted shapes that emphasise movement and volume – textural, ethereal yet controlled. For the women’s styles, we created structured shapes with rich texture, embodying both fragility and strength. Hair is swept back off the face for a contained, powerful look, while more feminine variations introduce ethereal moments by teasing out the hair. We used Authentic Beauty Concept’s Airy Texture Spray to enhance volume and Authentic Beauty Concept’s Glow Spray Serum to achieve a polished, controlled finish. For the men’s looks, we aimed for a lived-in feel, as if artists were coming together after a night out. There’s a sense of individuality in the hair, yet a cohesive and uniformed aesthetic, tied together by texture, control and a pushed back style. Ethereal moments are introduced through subtle variations in movement, maintaining a balance between structure and effortlessness,” – Anna Cofone, Global Creative Advocate for Authentic Beauty Concept.

Step By Step

1. Hair is prepped with Nymph Salt Spray at the roots for volume and structure and Glow Spray Serum is used through mid-lengths and ends for heat protection. Blow-dry in using vent brush, especially on the sides. Depending on texture use Amplify Mousse or Cosmic Blowdry Jelly for type 1 or 2 if very heavy.
2. Hair is kept back using Pliable Styling Paste and styled by taking set sections sprayed with a fine mist of Working Hairspray then:
– At the top, take small section and use small tongs, working away from the face to create indent in the hair
– On the sides, use a triple barrel waver in a vertical direction to create movement at the sides
– At the back, also add abstract waved section to create texture and defined movement
3. To finish, brush the hair out and use Airy Texture Spray to create soft moments and Glow Spray Serum to tame any fly-aways. Set with Working Hairspray.
