London fashion week spring/summer 2013: meadham kirchhoff

James Pecis created angelic ringlets for the Meadham Kirchhoff Spring/Summer 2013 show at London Fashion Week.

Show: Meadham Kirchhoff

Stylist: James Pecis for Fudge

The inspiration: Cherubs and Boticelli paintings. "We wanted to create a really soft and feminine ethereal look," said James. "It celebrated the natural beauty of the models and worked well with the collection."

The look: A beautiful updo featuring a braided ring and soft curly ringlets piled high on the head, accessorised with bows and Lilien Czech hair clips.

Get the look: Prep the hair with Fudge Dry Shampoo to remove any grease and make it easy to style the hair.

Using a tail comb, separate the front section of hair just behind the ears. Tie the rest of the hair out of the way.

Use the tail comb to create an off-centre zig-zag parting. Start braiding the hair in a tight French plait down the right hand side of the head. Once you get to the nape, plait in the normal way and secure with a snag free plastic hair band.  

Repeat the plait on the left hand side.

Take the plait from the right and wrap back around the nape of the neck and tuck and pin into the left plait. Repeat process on the left side.

Next take sections of the loose hair and spray with Fudge Matte Head Gas. Use a thin curling wand to create tight ringlets.

Pin the curls high and forward on your head with pins. Gently ease the curls with your fingers to create more height and to add a wispy softness to the style.

Take a length of thin elastic and an upholstery needle and weave thought the curls to secure the style in place. 

Finish with a good mist of Fudge SkyScraper Hairspray to hold the style in place.
