The wet-roots-with-dry-lengths combo (seen at Pringle and Pucci) divided opinion in the ELLE office. If you love the look, hair stylist Luke Hersheson recommends it as a ‘great look for holidays that feels right for summer. Use a serum at the roots and blow-dry the hair back from the face, leaving lengths naturally wavy for an undone, sexy look for night’.

This season make a statement with your hair by experimenting with bold, contrasting textures.
At Moschino
hair was whipped up into cloud-like quiffs, while at Louis Vuitton slicked hair exploded into teased ponytails the texture of candyfloss.
Like many designers, Sonia Rykiel
revisited the decade of excess. Her eighties
inspired hair was poker straight at the roots and crimped, then teased, through the lengths.
If you don’t have crimping irons in your beauty arsenal, Akin Konizi, Hob salon’s international creative director suggests ‘taking large hair pins and wrapping the hair around the pin in a figure of eight movement. Secure with a kirby grip and press your straightening irons over the pin for a few seconds’ to cheat your way to the look. This technique works best on smaller sections, so try a crimped quiff for starters.
