Inspiration: The swooping stacked cut lines of artist Noriko Ambe. The organic splendor of artist Tara Donovan. Citing these two biomorphic artists as his springboard for the season, J. Mendel designer Gilles Mendel cultivates a collection seeded in elegant technicality and fluid emotion. “It’s the idea of using structured fabrics and adding an element of softness by using curved seams and intricate cut work,” says Mendel. “Each piece is an emotion.”

Hair:  To mirror this dance between tailored precision and soft, sloping curves, and to evoke a feeling of ethereal airiness, stylist Odile Gilbert fashions a voluminous hairstyle that revels in the organic, chaotic nature of mussed curls. “It’s all about volume — tons of volume — and a round, fluid shape. This look is very feminine.” says Gilbert, adding “It’s not feminine-frilly; rather it’s femininity with a modern twist.”

The Show: Carolina Herrera

The Trend: Fine-textured low twisted chignons with touches of delicate long strings of intricate seed-beads swept throughout strands of the hair.

The Inspiration: The Carolina Herrera Spring 2010 collection was inspired by intricate forms woven in Japanese baskets. The texture of the fabrics and prints was taken from patterns found in the details of these baskets. Colors including amber, rose and caramel were drawn from the waning light cast at the end of a summer’s day, with the luminous quality of this light reflected in the fabrics and embroidery used for evening.

The Hair: Orlando Pita, using Moroccanoil, created beautiful, fine-textured low twisted chignons with touches of delicate long strings of intricate seed-beads swept throughout strands of the hair. The looks, created with Moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream, highlighted smooth elegance with a natural ease, texture and flow.

“We used argan-oil infused Moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream to prime the hair and give it a natural-looking, frizz-free texture with a soft hold,” noted Pita. “The beads were designed to blend subtly through the hair; appearing almost as if they’re embedded in the strands themselves.” Pita plays with texture and keeps the look relaxed and piece-y, without stiffness or tight structure (Tip: Rather than using a brush to blow-dry strands, Pita mussed hair with his fingers as he blow-dried to enhance the tresses’ natural separation and create further definition.)

Kyra Sedgwick’s hairstyle at the 2009 Golden Globe Awards was created by hair stylist Robert Vetica using Moroccanoil products.

Robert Vetica also created the hairstyle for Salma Hayek at the 2009 Golden Globe Awards.

Kyra Sedgwick’s Golden Globes Look: Kyra Sedgwick’s look was reminiscent of Rita Hayworth, but more delicate and loosely curled. He then pulled it back to show off her face with cascading hair when she turned. He wanted the hair down but still elegant, Hollywood and fresh.Her Oscar de la Renta gown with a fitted bodice and deep neckline helped Vetica make the decision to sweep the hair back off the face. The result: a retro-style pin-up ‘do with a more soft and relaxed feel.

How to get Kyra Sedgwick’s hairstyle: Kyra’s hair was blow-dried to a smooth finish with a touch of Moroccanoil Treatment, directed away from the face using a strong spray gel to hold her hair up and away from her forehead.
