Runway To Real Life

LAUNCHMETRICS SPOTLIGHT

Model Noemie Abigail's hair was left basically untouched for the J.W. Anderson show, where the vibe was meant to evoke a cool little rich girl. On the streets of London, big, bouncy curls look just as cool.

Cloudy Curls

LAUNCHMETRICS SPOTLIGHT

Loose Spirals
