Sporting colourful French braids and wild makeup, model Natasha Poly gets 'Glam and Sporty' in Vogue Italia. The spread, which was photographed by Craig McDean, appears in the March 2010 issue of the venerable fashion magazine.
Pieces from Roberto Cavalli, Fendi, Chanel, Balenciaga, Prada, Blumarine, Marc Jacobs and Miu Miu are all on display, obviously providing the glamour for the 'Glam and Sporty' editorial.
Implications - While shirts and pants get a lot of attention, hairstyles are just as important when it comes to complimenting a style. This may seem like a strange statement, but think about punk rock and mohawks or rock and roll and long hair for example. From a design point of view, brands can look to hairstyles as a source of inspiration for outfits that will reflect the look and attitude of wild haired consumers.
