Mark Hayes, Zoe Irwin, Johanna Cree Brown, Tim Hartley, Gary Hooker & Michael Young and Trevor Sorbie all appeared on stage at the show, which was arranged by Tribute magazine and hosted by editor Nicky Pope and surprise guest, Robert Lobetta. [gallery ids="31242,31241,31245"] Mark Hayes brought a glimpse of the new Sassoon Academy collection to the stage, presenting dandies and suedeheads inspired in part by the PUNK: Chaos to Couture exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art in New York. For Zoe Irwin it was all about texture, from Studio 54 disco curls to Native American braiding techniques - all brought up to date through Zoe's session styling skills. Trevor Sorbie artistic director, Johanna Cree Brown, also took punk inspiration, harnessing the power of pins to create three dimensional designs which showcased her eye for detail and flair for theatrics. Tim Hartley (top image) transformed hair live on stage, celebrating the cult of the cut to bring to life his theme of la vie en rose. For Hooker & Young, it was all about beautifully-finished long hair, packed full of shine and styled in to tumbling waves and inspired by the greats - Alexandre de Paris and Jean Luc Minetti.
