The second day of London Fashion Week opened in a maelstrom of bleating wind. The sort of wind that renders any vague hair styling you might have naively undertaken, utterly redundant. Sparse, tiny, flyaway hairs break free from the mass and indelicately plant themselves across your face, or worse, across your lipstick.

It’s not really chic, is it? Well, actually it is. There’s a romanticism to hair that which is caught in a moment; it’s nature’s rhapsody, something spontaneous which can never be repeated. It allows the hair breathe with life, no hard lines, no contrived structures. This is no Jenny From The Block celebration of baby hairs, think elegant – not street.

Admittedly, the New Yorkers got there first with the wispy hair thing, most notably at Marchesa, where frays were tussled out to frame the face, whilst the remaining hair was whisked up into a pulchritudinous chignon.

In London, things are a little bit more relaxed. A bit more worn-in. At Sibling (which has dropped it’s old prefix ‘Sister by’), Syd Hayes referenced Stevie Nicks, the chief inspiration for the collection, for his modern-boho hair look. ‘I’m spraying the hair across the face with hairspray so it looks windswept,’ he said.

After gently teased the crown spritzed the ends with L’Oreal Studio Line TXT Volume Supersizing Spray and knelt the hair over the top of a heated wand, rather than underneath for a gentle bend in the hair, ‘this isn’t about party curls,’ he said. No, it’s far cooler than that. Stevie Nicks cool.

‘I’m mixing L’Oreal Professionel Pli with other products so the hair is really matte,’ said Anthony Turner backstage at JW Anderson. ‘It means you get really fine, fluffy baby hairs. It goes a bit wild.’ Rather than drape the baby hairs across the face, Turner encouraged them to emanate, with their gauzy texture, from the head itself.

Is it possible to be both androgynous and whimsically feminine at the same time? The inimitable hair stylist for Bumble & Bumble, Lyndell Manfield has made it so, at the London College of Fashion’s MA show today. Easily, the most thrilling and heartbreakingly pretty hair look of today’s show.
