Catwalk Fashion Show 2010 Physical Elements Fall Collection

Last Thursday I was able to create the hair for the Catwalk 2010 Fall collection for Portland's couture clothing store Physical Element. Local clothing designers like WEMA, Kate Troyer, and Ranee Armstrong, plus couture hat makers Dayna Pinham and Amy Downs with The International brand names from Belgium, France, Toyko and Spain helped me create a beautiful feel from start to finish. When creating the hairstyles for any fashion show it is good to do a run through... especially when hats are involved. It's very important to make sure that the image is complete. With such an amazing arrangement of international flavor, I wanted to bring back the old fashion roller set that Kevin Murphy inspired in his fashion collection. The Kevin Murphy line of products helps me deliver the constant flexibility to change the hair quickly and easily.

Here's the layout for how I put it together.

• Session hair spray

• Full-on Protection texturizer

Here's some write up from Chris Cones: Physical Element's "Catwalk" show is a breath of fresh, Fall 2010 air

There is something to be said about talented people coming together to create top of the line fashion without having to compromise. Thank you Portland for your open hearts to fashions from around the world. We look forward to continuing to raise the bar in fashion and sustainability.

Warmly, Dayna Cakebread
