Art Deco Eton Crop Flirty Kiss Curls – 1974
Photos: Lorraine Sylvestre
These two photos are now hair history, from the famous La Coupe’s Art Deco Collection. With hair by Kim Lepine, they feature an Eton Crop, a flirty kiss curl, a forehead bandeau a la 20s and, with the other inspirational Art Deco photos in the Collection, put La Coupe on the world map. The model was Bijette who just friended me on Facebook. In 2022. Considering I haven’t seen her since 1974, this is pretty amazing. Here, Bijette these photos are for you.

CommentFlirty Kiss Curl, Art Deco Collection – 1974
Photo: Lorraine Sylvestre … Collage: Kenchine Kurokawa
This iconic photo from La Coupe’s famous Art Deco Collection of 1974 featured an Eton Crop, inspired by the ’20s version, and a flirty kiss curl. Note to hairstylists, sometimes just a little kiss curl can make all the difference to a simple front view. For real life, a kiss curl can be very subtle but for a photo, fashion runway or the red carpet, it needs to be more like the one in this photo, to show. This look had a high, off-centre part, and a soft feather-y kiss curl, enough but not too much and it was not stuck down with sugar as they used to do. The kiss curl can, of course, work with short or long pulled-back hair. For more Art Deco photos, click here:
