Ouidad Creates Curls on the Catwalk‏

Ouidad Creates Curls on the Catwalk
New York Fashion Week 2011

 This season, Ouidad was the official sponsor of two high profile shows – Rebecca Minkoff and Tara Subkoff for IMITATION.  Ouidad kicked off NY Fashion Week 2011 with the Rebecca Minkoff show, the inspiration was a throwback 60’s vibe with a gypsy feel, and Ouidad’s “morning after” long, loose tousled styles were the perfect compliment to the collection.  To get the look, Ouidad used PlayCurl Volumizing Foam and Climate Control to give models a less polished “urban gypsy” look.

Below are some key images from the Rebecca Minkoff Show:

At Tara Subkoff for IMITATION, Ouidad created a femme fatale, “crazy socialite” inspired look to channel the seductive vibe.  Ouidad’s Tress Effects Styling Gel and PlayCurl Volumizing Foam helped shape the soft, 40’s Jane Russell-like curl.  The show was held at the Milk Studio Penthouse, and the front row was star studded, evidence of Tara’s huge celebrity following – including Chloe Sevigny, Gina Gershon, Natasha Lyonne, Rose McGowen and Liev Schreiber.
