Gilded Youth

Reference: DVD-92
Author: Sassoon Academy
Description:
The metropolitan chic of a short Sassoon haircut becomes a badge of English eccentricity when worn with posh hunting pinks or the muted sage green of a Harris tweed hacking jacket. International Creative Director, Mark Hayes says, "This collection presents a new look that mixes the urban and the pastoral. Cuts are a combination of soft graduation, rounded interior shapes and the long foppish fringes of the typical English gent."

Colours are plucked from the morning dew of a country hedgerow or the dark green of the moss and purple heather of a bleak damp moor, lots of royal blue, starched white and ox-blood, colours asssociated with traditional English dress.

Rural England has been re-invigorated. It's rich traditions and heritage combined with Britain's unique urban style creates a new look for a modern world. This is New Britannia for Autumn Winter 2008.

To illustrate this new direction, this DVD contains two innovative cutting and colouring techniques developed by the Sassoon Creative Team at the world renowned Sassoon Academy, London.
