McQueen at the MET SAVAGE BEAUTY!!!!

So I had the pleasure of taking my mate Miss Keira Knightley to the McQueen MET exhibition (she was in town promoting her new film Last Night) . Not only was it the most AMAZING visual feast but we had the curator of the MET Andrew Bolton walk us around on a personal tour!!!!!! I feel this exhibition was a great tribute to Lee who i had the pleasure of knowing personally he was a genius and i worked on many of his shows.
As I walked my way around every dress evoked some form of emotion hope, joy, sadness, dis pare they were all there . The other thing i loved was that they didn't use wigs they enlisted the great Gudio Palau to create mask for the mannequins. He did an amazing job i think Lee would of approved!!!!!! So if your in NYC you have to take time out to see it........ Below is a little taste...

German Vogue with Julia Stegner Shot by Alexi Lubomirski

Check out my new German Vogue cover!!!! I think Julia looks AMAZING. We shot this in Miami. I wanted a really strong and sexy feeling to the hair. So i used gel to slick the top and sides back but then left the ends natural. And just blow dried smooth with a slight wave....

Jacquelyn Jablonski in H&M Magazine Spring issue.

So check out this shoot i did with the wonderful Mr Alexi Lubomirski  I love the hippy vibe and the soft light!!!! I kept the hair really simple. I used thickening lotion on wet hair and finger dried with a hairdryer twisting large sections till dry. This gives a very soft bend to the hair adding movement but still making it natural.... I finished with a little bit of back combing at the root to add extra volume (but be careful not to add to much). Then finish with a little hairspray for hold.
