Another tall textured lady in the Media Box!

At the Runway Shows

Curly hair on the runway? Not so much. Having a backstage pass to shows like Christian Siriano and Charlotte Bronson was phenomenal, but the hairstyles lacked texture. I was in fashion heaven while being somewhat disappointed with the texture-less styles I saw being created. I would have loved to see some of Lela Roses’ models sporting curly bobs or even Jill Stuarts’ models with a curly top bun. The fashion was fierce, so I took notes on which styles would look best with a textured look.

Being in the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Media Box was a completely different experience! Texture was everywhere and I was loving it! The hottest trend was the messy curly bun. Most days the weather was hot and humid, so most of the fashion forward curly girls I saw with curly hair wore buns or ponytails. A few photographers even asked to snap some shots of my style with my spirals (from the night before”> pinned up and out of the way. Michelle Breyer and I noticed that a number of shows styled their models in small “bed head” buns. The trend inspired street style and the “model bun” went curly inside and out of the Media Box. I saw lots of curly bobs and free flowing curly hair too!
