Models always inspire, and the new girls about town striding London's catwalks are no different; nonchalant, cool and effortlessly beautiful, these are the new generation of catwalk queens.With the trademark tousled tresses that are the mark of most London girls about town, these new icons blend Dalston cool with Topshop savvy for a look that's simply irresistible.
Here we round up our favourite new faces and here what the industry experts have to say about their high-street cool.
Clara Paget
"I like Clara's cool and effortless hairstyle with its beachy tousled waves. The dip-dye look is still on-trend, but for the new season it's about more of a natural look, compared to the previous seasons which have seen stark, contrasting colours. This particular colour is a touch golden for her pinky skin tone for me, as it drains her out slightly. I'd soften her shade, but just a touch."
Amy Louise Wylde, Atelier Hairdressing & Beauty Rooms, Redbourn, Hertfordshire
Suki Waterhouse
"New 'It' girl Suki Waterhouse just oozes an effortlessly dishevelled, chic innocence. Her honeycomb and butterscotch hues are the perfect Autumn/Winter update for blondes, as it keeps the tone softer, richer and deeper. Her untamed, choppy and oh-so-popular midlength style ensures her colour looks expensive and beautiful, while her grown-out fringe - which is so versatile - just sets the whole look off. This girl can do no wrong."
Jenny Pelter, Westrow artistic team, Leeds
Gabriella Wilde
"I just love Gabriella Wilde's effortless style - she always looks amazing. This loosely done look, with hair piled high on top of her head, really suits her and is such an on-trend look right now. Gabriella's not afraid to express herself through fashion - she knows what suits her and looks great for it."
Katie Watts, Hoop Haircutters, Clacton-on-Sea
Portia Freeman
"Exuding a modern, effortless look inspired by an up-to-date take on Marilyn Monroe glamour, Portia's style relies so much on the clean and beautifully
executed colour. With the standout shade acting as the focal point for Portia's entire look, the understated cut is the perfect juxtaposition for this style."
Faye Turner, HOB Salons, London
