Paris Fashion Week | Vaquera SS27

Hair Lead: Claire Grech

Vaquera’s SS27 runway show in Paris, Hair Director Claire Grech worked with Mr. Smith to create a series of looks that oscillated between natural and highly constructed. Reflecting the collection’s playful tension between character,
glamour and individuality.

The hair direction is informed by the models themselves, working with their natural hair, individual textures and existing haircuts. Lightness and movement become central to the aesthetic, with hair left airy and free to move as the
models walked the runway.

This sense of ease is contrasted with more sculptural moments: dramatic, spiky headpieces with a feather-like quality. Highly directional, the hair pieces introduced a more graphic, exaggerated element to the story.

“Working with the natural hair, textures and cuts of the models was really important. We wanted the hair to feel light and airy, allowing it to move and float beautifully on the runway. In contrast, we also created spiky, feather-like headpieces. The contrast gives us freedom to respond to each individual piece in the collection.” said Claire.
