As one of the leading Editorial and Session Stylists for both catwalks and high-fashion campaigns, Nick Irwin was a natural fit to style the hair for both the Noki and Helen Anthony shows. His styling range of choice is Schwarzkopf Professional’s Session Label assortment; used to craft effortless hair with character and edge by layering and combining consistencies and textures for tailor-made creations. Working alongside Fashion Stylist Kim Howells, Nick was supported by an international team consisting of creative key members from Schwarzkopf Professional’s Young Artistic and Collective Teams, as well as local hairdresser talents.
This collaboration was the perfect symbiosis of craft and products; officially debuting Schwarzkopf Professional’s Session Label range on the runway, backstage and in the runway impressions.
Helen Anthony
Helen Anthony is a British fashion label known for cutting-edge fashion and design, combined with the finest tailoring and materials; bringing collections that stand out from the crowd. The SS23 show was no different with a unique ready-to-wear collection featuring a cross between 80s pop and tailored suits, presented in a variety of colours and materials and paired with long coffin nails and sunglasses. Golds, nudes, glitter and big collars were all featured, with a juxtaposition between modern and old.
The look: Hair was generally slicked back with an aesthetically pleasing polished but undone feel, crafted using: The Mousse, The Thickener and The Flexible.
Noki
Renowned British designer, DR. NOKI is known as a self-proclaimed “anarchist to fashion waste” – a representative of sustainable fashion and a trailblazer, with a focus on reusing and up-cycling vintage or dead stock textiles. His style was born out of the 90s London rave scene where his custom-built designs caught momentum. His SS23 Collection, NOKI, echoes this signature approach with up-cycled and distressed street couture fashion presented in an anti-establishment and rebellious way; patterns, logos and grunge-esque clothing is custom-tailored and reimagined in a mismatched manner.
The look: Hair was creatively styled to match with a cool undergone vibe, crafted using: The Texturizer, The Strong and The Mousse.
