I am in love. This look for a Chanel Paris couture show in 2010 is gorgeous. The way the hair has being created in this padded heart is extremely Elizabethan in its shaping. JUST LOOK AT IT. the use of colour and bow detailing could be seen as a modern day influence.
Extremely pretty and unique, the use of a colouring in the shape works well as it though contrasting is really suited. An Elizabethan colour? Maybe not so much but notice the models pale skin and red lips... extremely Elizabethan.
The inclusion of adding a fringe is something that I want to do with my work after numerous practices of trying pin curls and looking like I'd actually been electrocuted. I also like the idea of using colour to the hair like a hair chalk so I don't have to make the commitment of actually dying my hair.
According to Karl Lagerfeld this show is inspired by "Liquid Silver" & "Neon Baroque" but for me personally its like the models has escaped the Elizabethan era and the first place they went to was a disco.
The entire hair is very detailed and structured every strand on the models head has been planned to look that way.
The lace down the parted heart is very fitting with the hair as not only does it hide the silver extensions and blend but is also extremely Elizabethan as lace was extremely popular with obviously the luxurious cuts being for the wealthy and renascence.
