London fashion week autumn/winter 2013: sophia webster Hair at Sophia Webster Autumn/Winter 2013-14 by Bianca Tuovi for Bumble and bumble Bianca Tuovi created unicorn hair - and horns - for the Sophia Webster Autumn/Winter 2013 show at London Fashion Week.

Show: Sophia Webster

Stylist: Bianca Tuovi for Bumble and bumble

The inspiration: My Little Pony

The look: Multi-coloured plaits with 'forelock' fringes and horns.

Get the look: Hair from around the hairline was separated off all round, with the rest of the hair gelled and pulled back into a high ponytail.

The ponytail was then plaited and stitched down on the scalp to create a solid base for the hairpieces.

The side sections that were originally left out were then prepped with Bb Gel and Prep spray and brought to the back of the head and plaited together over the existing braid to add further grip to the base.

Coloured hair spray was then chosen according to the model's colouring and the colouring of her extensions and sprayed on to the hair all over.

Pre-made plaited extensions were then clipped in to the base and pinned down to cover the model's real hair. Clip-in fringes were then layered - one pink and one blue or purple - with the horn pinned on top of the head.

White hair powder was used on the fringe and had been used in the pre-made pieces to create a dull, matte, more pastel finish. Hair was then finished with Does it All and Sumo Wax was pulled through the very ends of the plait.

Key products: Bumble and bumble Hair Powder in white, Gel, Prep, Does it All, Sumo Wax

The gossip: Bianca spent about 30 hours prepping for the show - mostly working on finding the right extensions and right coloured hairspray.
