Plaits are the go-to hairstyle for summer. Look to Jean Paul Gaultier for festival or holiday hair inspiration, small braids, twists and texture create the perfect laidback look, while Prada showed how plaits can be grown-up too. Classic and simple, hair was loosely swept off the face and plaited to create a chic style. For humid days (if we ever get any) Margaret Howell had the perfect solution - mussed up Heidi hair, just weave your hair into two plaits and pin them up (don't worry, you don't have to be too neat.) If you really want to create a beauty stir Yohji Yamamoto and Giles created weaves and fishtail plaits to make you go wow, just make sure you have your hairdresser on speed dial.
