The Charles Worthington team celebrated their 25th anniversary with a celebratory evening at the Fellowship for British Hairdressing.
Hosted by Simon Shaw, the evening comes after a year of celebrations including a limited edition product collection, a fourth year as the official hair partner for BAFTA, a successful season at London Fashion Week and special new salon services.
Joined by colour director Carolyn Newman, master stylist Marc Trinder and key members of the Charles Worthington international art team, a trio of cuts and colours from the Capsule Collection were presented with inspirations ranging from post-modernism to graphics and film.
It was then time for a Q&A, with Simon passing on questions from Fellowship members. Fast-tracking through his career to date with witty anecdotes and insider gossip on the world of celebrity, Charles finished by revealing his industry icons: "Without doubt the late Vidal Sassoon was an absolute icon, nobody matches his drive, eloquence, sensibility and talent. Anthony Mascolo for his coolness and braveness when it comes to attitude and Robert Lobetta for his unrivalled passion. I've been told that he has often spent up to 18 hours on perfecting a look - as opposed to using the magic of retouch!"
Three members of the Charles Worthington Young Art Team - Michael, Chloe and Fiona - were then presented on stage by Charles, with a trio of glamorous red carpet creations initially designed for their A-list guests at the BAFTAs.
The show closed with a theatrical presentation by Charles and Marc, with extreme clipper work demonstrating their wealth of creativity.
