Weβve got a whole-lotta-love for this new collection from Melissa Timperley β just in time for International Womanβs Day, too! The distinguished Essence of a Woman collection artfully celebrates the beauty of mature women, and we think itβs wonderfully poignant. Too often our ideals for beauty and style are intertwine with the idea of βyouthβ. We are happy to see Melissa successfully challenging this assumption. Real woman. Real life. Real charisma. Thatβs the message that Melissa was going for and itβs been captured magnificently. By using her own clients as models, sheβs created an incredible warmth and depth to these images that we havenβt seen in quite some time. Bravo!
Melissa says: βMature women donβt want to be 25 again, they have been there already. They donβt want to slavishly copy the latest trends, but they do want to feel relevant and current. In celebration of International Womenβs Day, we wanted to show how hairstyles for the mature lady can still have a sophisticated βwowβ appeal β equal to their juniors β whilst being lifestyle appropriate.β
