Behind the Runway: Spring 2008

3.1 PHILLIP LIM: Backstage with Aveda

Lead Hair Stylist: Odile Gilbert
Designer Inspiration:
“The journey that we all take from moment to moment, from day to day, from
person to person, from space to place… Spring 2008 is about a physical journey that metamorphoses itself into the emotional adventures of life.” —Phillip Lim
The Look:
Playful; soft and fun
The Look:
• Curly: Small, loose, Shirley Temple-like curls

We asked Odile Gilbert: Do you see this look translating from runway to "real way"?
"This straight look can easily be transitioned to a wearable everyday look. The curly style can be worn in the real world as well as a softer look for a cocktail or formal occasion."


Get The Curly Look:



• For medium hold, apply Pure Abundance Volumizing Hair Spray on individual sections and curl small curling iron (1/2 inch or smaller)
• Curl entire head in this fashion to achieve tiny, Shirley temple type curls
• Sprinkle Pure Abundance Hair Potion to roots to add texture and volume

• Lightly back-comb from 4 inches towards the scalp, pinching the hair up and leaving loose curls that softly frame hair (look is romantic with slight Victorian-edge)

• Finish with Air Control Hair Spray for light moveable curls
