TONI&GUY teams lead by Jan Przemyk, Tim Furssedonn and Samantha Hillerby and Efi Davies spent a busy day creating hair to complement catwalk shows of designers including Giles Deacon on day three of London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 09.
With inspiration ranging from Pac Man to vintage Hollywood, the session stylists had to be at their creative best.
Tuesday 16th September
Giles Deacon
Oversized helmets teamed with mainly structured tailored dresses, embellished with military style army prints and accessorised with origami cut-out collars, set against a back drop of black & white, grey, yellow, and accents of silver glitter detailing.
Show inspiration
To complement the strength of the silhouette, hair was deliberately kept really soft and textured, having been styled away from the face, to maintain a loosely structured shape that was tight around the sides and distressed at the crown, with a nest like effect.

Hairstyles created
The hair was prepped with mousse to inject the necessary volume and then a small section around the back of the head was loosely pulled to the nape and secured in a ponytail with elastic. The ponytail was then barrel curled and secured under with a grip. Using fingertips the hair was then slightly pulled at around the sides and at the crown, creating a distressed texture keeping a loose chignon effect.
Must-have session kit
Pins and grips, tail comb, thin elastics, cushion brush, hairspray, sea salt spray and volume mousse
Style summary
Pac-man meet Sci-Fi Barbarella.
Hemyca
All about powerful femininity. This is statement dressing, with a Parisian feel, tailored and complementary cuts, accentuating waists, hips and shoulders.
Show Inspiration
Groomed and grown up, with a nod to the 1940s. Simple and structural sculpted shapes offset - giving reference to retro jaunty hats.

Tim Furssedonn
Hairstyles created
A section of hair was taken at the front of the head and an offset top knot was created. The remaining hair was placed into a high ponytail at the crown and tonged. The ponytail was then brushed through and sculpted into soft, glossy, structured shapes and secured with elastic.
Must-have session kit
Digital control tongs, cushion brush, elastics, volume mousse, hairspray, hair polish.
Style summary
The eccentric golden era of Hollywood
Jojo&Malou
Inspired by private detectives and secret agents, the collection contains hidden depths of mystery and surrealism, including cropped trench coats with an understated colour palette.
Show inspiration
A throwback to the 1960s with young and sporty ponytails - think Bridget Bardot or Sandra Dee. Surplus length with plenty of backcombing and texturising.

Jan Przemyk
Hairstyles created
Hair was prepped and secured in a ponytail at the nape. The ponytail was backcombed and textured using finger tips for a young, sporty feel with a 60s disco vibe.
Must-have session kit
Cushion brush and Large Hot Brush, dry shampoo, sea salt spray and hairspray
Style summary
Fun, young and feminine
Laura Lees
A vibrant collection, full of fun and playfulness, with an 80's feel. Primary blues, red's and yellows mixed with grassy green and zesty orange, with the focal feature being decadent floral embroidery - perfect for spring.
Show inspiration
With reference to 80s club kids - introducing bright colours within the hair with the creation of circular shapes and forms on top of the head with hidden twists and knots for femininity.

Tim Furssedonn
Hairstyles created
The hair was sectioned into three parallel ponytails on top of the head; these were then worked around vibrantly coloured chignon rings, forming multi-sized circular shapes in the hair.
Must-have session kit
Pintail comb, elastic, strong fine pins, hair polish, hairspray and volume mousse.
Style summary
Leigh Bowery does Art Attack
Xterity
A red carpet worthy collection of high glamour meets French Riviera, chic and sophisticated, with billowing silk and chiffon in vibrant shades of citrus yellow, magenta and sky blue.
Show Inspiration
Very sophisticated hair down, with a hint of 'lady', taking the hair sleekly off the face for a more contemporary nod to the 90s.
TONI&GUY Head of Team
Jan Przemyk
Hairstyles created
The hair was blow-dried smooth and worked off the face using a Paddle Brush
Must-have session kit
Cushion brush, pintail comb, berette clips, volume mousse, hairspray, shine mist
Style summary
A bit of a posh do
