Hair stylist Odile Gilbert for Aveda created a look that can be described as Eva Peron meets Juliet Lewis; giving the 40s a more a modern feel and shape.

How to recreate the look:
· Step 1: Create a deep side part and section hair off behind the ear. Spray with Air Control Hair Spray and brush through to smooth.

· Step 2: Create a high pony tail right above the right ear and secure in place with an elastic.

· Step 3: Divide pony in half and roll each section around a rat (small hair sponge), creating a cylinder-like shape. Hold in place with pins and spray with Air Control Hair Spray.

· Step 4: Repeat with other section of pony tail, creating a bow-like shape.

· Step 5: Apply a small amount of Aveda Light Elements Defining Whip throughout remaining section of hair on other side of the head. Spray with Air Control Hair Spray before wrapping hair down and around the back of the head along the hair line, and up around the base of the pony tail. Secure with pins throughout to keep in place.

Odile explains that “this look is very intricate but the off-center bun above the ear is a very elegant, sophisticated evening style.”

Inspiration: Inspired by Steve McCurry’s famous “Afghan Girl” photograph from a 1985 issue of National Geographic (image enclosed), Phillip Lim wanted a beauty look centered around a beautiful, haunting Arabian eye. NARS International Makeup Director, Ayako, explained, “the eyes should be striking, but not smoldering or sexy; very gypsy-like.” Creating the perfect balance of dark and innocent, highlighting the models’ bright eyes and creating a dusty finish on the skin, Ayako referred to this look as “National Geographic Makeup.”
