Chignon With Beads @ Carolina Herrera – 2010
As New York Fashion Week nears for Spring 2015 (September 4th to 11th) here’s a look-back to Spring 2010. With hope and a prayer there will be more ideas like this, and not too many ponytails and nothing hair! This modern chic chignon had bronze, gold or silver beads embedded by Orlando Pita for Carolina Herrera’s New York Fashion Week show that year. The beads, on a headband, showed through easy-going, gently-twisted, tucked-under knots of hair resting elegantly on napes. The hair wasn’t stiff, structured, or too perfect and was exquisite.

The beads showed through easy-going, gently twisted, tucked-under knots resting elegantly on napes. “The hair,” said Orlando Pita, “wasn’t stiff or structured.” For more, and some photos how to re-create this unique look, go to Fashion Weeks, Spring 2010.
