Hair whizz Luke Hersheson takes us through his looks at Osman and Richard Nicoll…

“I used jet black wigs on all the girls, I wanted Osman’s girls to look super tough this season and I imagined they were the type who borrowed their boyfriends clippers to cut their hair on a whim, but were a little coy in character hiding behind their long fringes. We cut the wigs with clippers so it looked very chunky, almost like vegetables that had been chopped with a knife. The character was a very cool girl that cuts her own hair and sleeps in her make up after a good night out.”

“Richard’s clothes are just so chic and breathtakingly beautiful that I decided to keep the hair simple, minimal, and very modern with a hint of 90s minimalism. Hair was scraped back using gel; we moulded the hair all the way from the hair line to the base of the back of the hair line for an androgynous beautiful head shape. I then ironed the hair along the lengths for a super sleek and super modern look. We used balloons to create static in the hair so as they walked it almost created an amazing fluidity to the girls.”
