Neat back-to-school hair

It’s a familiar sight on the autumn/winter 2017 catwalks: a shuffle of girls with neat “back to school” hair. At Rochas, the glossy ponytails tied with a careful ribbon spoke of nothing more than a Sunday night bath and an outfit hung on the wardrobe the night before, while at Altuzarra models pushed back their fringes with chunky embellished Alice bands, giving the appearance of a prefect confident in her own power. All you need is a decent brush, a jazzy accessory and a nice clean shirt.
