"As we move forward in fashion, hair, music and film, we return to the past for inspiration.
"Influenced by the stars of film noir, I worked with key components of shadow and light. The looks have been brought up-to-date with modern twists and technicolour, while styling stays true to the period."

Joey Scandizzo
"Drawing inspiration from European summers, my latest collection is a perfect convergence of old Hollywood glamour with modern beauty.
"My vision was to design sexy, romantic images with beautiful, desirable girls bathing in the sun. With an overall high-fashion look and feel, the images were finished with a grainy texture to embrace a glamorous vintage feel.
"The end result is a set of timeless images that transcend trends and will hold their appeal for many seasons."

Louise Wood"This collection was inspired by Hollywood sirens from a vintage age with a nod to the early 1920s through to the 1950s.
"I wanted to recreate hair that embraced modernity but which told a story of beautiful bygone times - pure glamour and femmes fatales.
"Stars such as Theda Bara, Louise Brooks, Greta Garbo, Rita Hayworth and Elizabeth Taylor were just several of the iconic actresses that I endeavoured to pay tribute to, allowing us the opportunity to return to more classic styling techniques, to create and to bring up-to-date beautiful hair shapes."
