Tim Walker is the photographic talent behind 'A Play of Dots' in Vogue Italia. The editorial was styled by Jacob K and features model Hannelore Knuts wearing [black-and-white Dolce & Gabbana fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) inside a trippy setting that is covered in polka dots.

While those details automatically make 'A Play of Dots' a must-read Vogue Italia editorial, it's the [electrostatic hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/main-character-hair) that catches my attention. How was Jacob K able to achieve this wiry look on Hannelore Knuts without shocking her?
