BROADCAST: How To Style the Season’s Hottest Hair with Windle and Moodie

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

The top runway hair trends of Fall 2011 were wielded by the hair stylist superstars of Windle and Moodie. This London based salon by Paul Windle and Neil Moodie is truly run by masters. Paul Windle was the principal of the Vidal Sassoon schools back in the 80s, and left in ’88 to open his own Salon. His prominence grew in the 90s in editorial and on the runway, styling a good number of Vogue covers. He’s also the reason his swear-by products Bumble and Bumble got so popular in the UK. If you’re in Londontown, you may even snag a coveted appointment for a haircut by Windle himself. Neil Moodie took a moment to shows us how to get the season’s coolest hair. From the tough ponied tomboy girlfriend to the teased, hurried and extreme hair of the Fall ’11 runways, Moodie takes you step by step here.

Do You Agree With Garance Doré: Plus-Size Models = Not Such a Good Thing?

Edited by The Fashion Web

Street style photographer Garance Doré has a thing or two to say about plus-size models. “It’s not such a good thing to show plus-size because it’s not really physically healthy and not always flattering to fashion,” she said. V Magazine begs to differ. But before you get offended, she has more to say: “It should not be such a big deal to show women with different bodies, but sometimes it’s treated like a bit of joke, or for shock.” Exhibit A: the plus-size models on the Mark Fast Fall runway. She thinks it’s naive of the fashion industry because, although it would be nice to say that the idea of different body shapes is normal, she believes it’s not yet. Does Garance have a point or is she just being insensitive?

Do You Agree With Garance Doré: Plus-Size Models = Not Such a Good Thing?

I see her point and I totally agree.

No: I enjoy seeing plus-size models.

I don’t know – I see validity in both sides.

RUNWAY: Mark Fast Fall/Winter 2010

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

A very anticipated show because of last season’s controversy, surrounding Mark’s use of plus size models on the runway, and after reviewing the above images I can honestly say that I am not impressed with this collection. Some of the pieces are great, some are very similar to last seasons, and some are just disappointing. I do love his use of color, but we’ve seen the matching tights in the past, and the hair and makeup were, in my opinion, very lacking. What do you guys think?

FIRST LOOK: Faster by Mark Fast

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

Modeled by Anouk Lepere and Hayley Morley (who caused controversy last fashion week because of her ‘size’), Mark Fast’s new line ‘Faster’ is easy to wear and much more affordable. Said perfectly by and editor of Grazia: Think of the result as an uber flattering dance-inspired collection of body-sucking-thick-denier fabric creations, meaning flaunting some booty in these isn’t as scary as you first think.
