This collection called Sweet Nostalgia” is a delightful journey evoking the excitement and the feeling of being ‘a kid in a candy store’. Hairdresser Kristie Kesic at Cobelle Creative in Australia gathered her team to create whimsical homage to the nostalgic delight of childhood treats, taking you back to dreamy days filled with the joy and excitement of your favourite candies.
Sweet Nostalgia
The notes explain that each look is inspired by an iconic sweet bringing to life the colourful hues and playful textures of these beloved confections .From the melting multi-hued pastels of a rainbow paddle pop, the vibrant and varied pixelation of sprinkles, the bold colours of rock candy, the smooth yellow bends of a banana lolly, how you know the exact texture of honeycomb covered in chocolate, to the ethereal texture within sugary strands of cotton candy.
The collection balances strong silhouettes with airy movement, igniting a sense of spirit. Carved shapes that house the excitement and vibrancy of dynamic colour placement contrast the looks featuring softer styling, further diffusing a blend of molten hues. As a collection, the playfulness of each unique image creates a delightful visual treat.
The clothing features alluring structural pieces, each with its own textural intricacy. Layered fabrics hold their appeal yet elevate the hair without distraction. Powdered eyes in playful pigments preserve the airy feel of the collection whilst maintaining focus on the hair that frames them. “Sweet Nostalgia” is a sweet trip down memory lane, evoking different memories for everyone and reminding us of the simple pleasures of a sugary treat.
