When it comes to haircut inspiration, fashion month’s street stylers certainly haven’t disappointed. It all started in New York, where an assortment of natural textures, romantic updos and relaxed waves became front and centre. Across the pond, the flicked bob – a short cut that kicked up playfully at the ends – reigned supreme among guests like Yesly Dimate, Steph Hui and Cat Burns in London. Meanwhile, in Paris and Milan, attendees made a strong case for the pixie in its many incarnations. Fringes, too, were everywhere: piecey and Jane Birkin-esque or swept over in a deep side parting.
With so much you might’ve missed, as the fashion month celebrations draws to a close, we’ve rounded up the very best hair moments worth revisiting, whether you’re contemplating losing more inches than ever, toying with the idea of getting bangs or simply looking for a fresh way to work with what you’ve got.
