I am a huge fan of Antoinette Beenders - she is one of the most inspirational women I have ever met. Her vision and passion is amazing and I always come away buzzing with excitement after meeting up with her. I saw her yesterday at the launch of Aveda's ControlForce hairspay and we were looking through various pictures she has created over the last couple of years. Many of them were before their time and I firmly believe that she is at least two seasons ahead of every other hairdresser out there. The collection she entered for HJ's 2008 British Hairdresser of the Year is actually spot on-trend now. This image looks like it has stepped straight off the pages of Italian Vogue. Perhaps not perfect for a hair shot as it doesn't showcase the hair, this image is innocent with its short androgynous fringe, while the shape of the body adds a hint of femininity.
