Locals do F/W 2011 New York Fashion Week, Part One
Unfortunately, I am missing out on New York Fashion Week this spring. (But planning to go next fall!) Fortunately, I'm getting plenty of updates from folks on the front lines. Minnesota-based beauty brand Aveda is always there styling big shows backstage, including Christian Siriano and Jason Wu; models from local agency Vision will be walking the runways; and local photographer Stephanie Colgan has been shooting for the New York Times (including Tory Burch). Here's some of what's happened so far:
Stylist/blogger Jane Belfry hangs with pal Fred Holson at the StyleList party at Milk Studios.
Minnesota-bred, sunglasses-designing twins Coco & Breezy hit up Fashion Week shows with 8-year-old identical twins.
Aveda did hair and makeup at Organic by John Patrick on Wednesday. Here's a behind-the-scenes video with commentary by Aveda creative director Antoinette Beenders and Global Educator/local makeup artist Janell Geason. Sara Glassman covers the Organic by John Patrick show for the Star Tribune. Aveda has backstage photos here.
Star Tribune's Sara Glassman has also attended the following shows: Diane von Furstenberg, Calvin Klein, Derek Lam, Charlotte Ronson, Rachel Antonoff, ADAM by Adam Lippes, Cynthia Rowley, Rebecca Minkoff, Rebecca Taylor, Christian Siriano, Alexander Wang, Ralph Lauren, and Isaac Mizrahi.

On Friday, Kelsy Osterman - my former business partner in Minneapolis styling collective Eclecticoiffeur - styled backstage for Tadashi at Lincoln Center for Cutler Salon. She says, "The hair was quite simple, but beautiful. Tadashi creates gorgeous black tie affair dresses. The hair helped ground the look and helped keep them looking young and fresh. Great start to my fashion week!"
[Backstage at Adam. Photos by Kelsy Osterman]
On Saturday, Kelsy styled backstage for the Adam show at Lincoln Center for Redken. She says, "It was like super sexy librarian. Most of the clothing covered their entire bodies, but lots of shears and not a lot of undergarments. Cute, big framed glasses too, but it didn't come off as hipster! The hair was again a play on texture. Two simple twists in the bag made a beautiful shape."
[Backstage at Binelli. Photos by Kelsy Osterman]
On Saturday morning, Kelsy styled for Binelli. She says, "This one was challenging, but fun. A multiple step hairdo with awesome results. We covered all the girls' heads with black scull caps, cut holes in then letting perfectly coiffed black synthetically attached twisted buns. Then came the black hanger hair ornaments and wrapped with textured black gauze. It was definitely a fun play on texture and
lines."
Hairstylist Charlie Brackney, who just opened his own salon HAUS, is also doing hair backstage for Cutler Salon. He uploaded this photo to Facebook yesterday, but I'm not sure which show it's from. Pretty, anyways.

Kelsy Osterman quoted on BBC News
Apparently Kelsy Osterman is the leading expert on Kate Middleton's hair. The New York-based stylist - born 'n raised a Minnesotan - was quoted in the New York Post about the new 'do hitting the U.S. Now she's quoted in an article in BBC News about the future royal British princess. And Kelsy, being a close pal and former business partner of mine, gave me the scoop that she will be featured in an interview on the Today show this morning (Tuesday) about the hoopla.
Via BBC News:
"At Cutler Hair Salon on 57th Street, stylist Kelsy Osterman says dozens of women have been coming in and asking for a Kate Middleton cut.
"'People get really inspired by all these big beautiful photos of her and I think the one thing they can try to obtain of that beautiful look is the hair,' she said. 'There could have been 20 women in a day that ask for it.'"

Kelsy Osterman written up in New York Post
[Photo: Yahoo!]Hairstylist Kelsy Osterman, once a fixture of the Twin Cities fashion scene and was one of my partners in stylist collective Eclecticoiffeur, has been making waves since her move to New York - tons of gigs at New York Fashion Week and doing Courtney Love's hair just to mention a couple. She just got some nice press after being quoted by the New York Post's fashion column about the wave of requests for Kate Middleton's hairstyle.
From the writeup:
Ladies have been flocking to Cutler salons’ SoHo and Midtown locations, asking for Kate’s swooping bangs and shiny chocolate-hued locks, says head stylist Kelsy Osterman.
“It’s a definite buzz. Since the news [of the royal engagement] dropped, we’ve had a lot of women coming in and asking for either her cut or rich color,” says Osterman. One of the main components of the coif is half-coverage of the forehead, according to Osterman, who says the timing for the cut is perfect.
“In the last couple of years, it’s been all about the full bangs, and people are growing them out.”
Rob Shuter predicts Middleton’s hair will become the new “Rachel,” popularized by Jennifer Aniston’s character on “Friends.”
Congrats to Kelsy on the great press!
Local inspiration: muses and lenses
Here is a new feature I'd like to introduce - local fashion muses and fashion photography via Facebook uploads. A little taste of local inspiration.
This appears to be an outtake from Maritza Ramirez's fall 2010 lookbook shoot, featuring Vision model Elle Williams (a muse herself). Clothing by, Maritza Ramirez, photography by Amy Gee, styling by Jane Belfry, hair by Charlie Brackney, makeup by Amber Brenke.
Here's another muse of mine, Ben Fredrickson - recently relocated to New York. He's also a mean photographer. This one is subtitled "Trying to get clean in a dirty bathtub with the help of a Pentax SMC P 67 - Soft focus lens - 120 mm - f/3.5."
This hot shot is of musette Miss Cayla Caul Field; photo by Dominic Taylor.
Now based out of New York, Minneapolis native (and my former partner in my Eclecticoiffeur styling collective) Kelsy Osterman uploaded some new men's hairstyle images to her portfolio. (Click here for more.)
Photography Amy Gee uploaded some photos of local fashion muse Sohail Akhavein wearing Raul Osorio garments from the MNfashion-produced Third Thursday show at MIA. (Click here for one more.)

Kelsy Osterman does New York Fashion Week, pt 3
Kelsy Osterman, my former co-hort in Eclecticoiffeur who's now working with Cutler Salon in New York, finishes up her New York Fashion Week shows with Odd Molly, Betsey Johnson, Graeme Armour, Daniel Vosovic, and Tory Burch. She sent me her full backstage report.
On Odd Molly: "Lead by Brent Lawler. Super fun. Glued in colored extensions and braided them in. We pulled some of the pieces out while braiding to create this amazing effect."

On Betsey Johnson: "What a crazy backstage. Think Candy, balloons, champagne, florecent everything, and free for all hair dos.. Omg amazing."

On Graeme Armour: "At this show, lead by Rudi Lewis, you had to know your stuff. He is a fabulous hairdresser with very high standards. In this hairstyle, we created three chignon's to create a square shape. Making something square on an already round shape can be very difficult. After getting through lack of power, litterally electricity, we had only about an hour to bust 17 looks out. Long story short.. It was hecktic!! But check it out. What a beautiful innovative shape."

On Daniel Vosovic: "Yay!! Daniel Vosovic!! He's so sweet! He did this amazing video before his show. His 'story' was about a girl running through the woods, who starts out proper but gets caught up in twigs and dirt."

Kelsy Osterman at New York Fashion Week, part 2
Hairstylist Kelsy Osterman - a Minnesota native and former member of my styling collective Eclecticoiffeur - is at New York Fashion Week styling shows for Cutler Salon in NYC. She had another update and backstage pix for me from Spring 2011 New York Fashion Week shows for Rebecca Taylor, Gary Graham, Patrick Ervell, Rachael
Antonoff, and Tadashi.
On Rebecca Taylor: "Did that this morning at Lincoln Center. Super fun fuzzy buns."
.jpg)
.jpg)
On Gary Graham: "Awesome show. We put lots of product and texture onto the the hair and tied it into a super low ponytail. Then cut the shit out of lots and lots of wigs and placed them on the models heads creating a faux pixie look. Combined with the pony they looked like rouge hard ass girls with rockin' mullets."
.jpg)
.jpg)
.jpg)
The Cutler team did cute curls for the men at Patrick Ervell.
.jpg)
On Rachael Antonoff: "Rachael Antonoff is a young lady with fresh youthful but strong looks. Her presentation took place in an eccentric townhouse in the wonderful west village. The idea was to create a child's paradise with forts, trampolines, and dolls that the models were frozen ad if interacting with the set. Super sweet pastels were used as the color palette with stripes and solids. Sort of Annie Larson meets Calpurnia Peach. The hair was easy and fun. We started the style with adding lots of texture. Then we did a side french braid and finished it off with a bun in the back. We then disheveled the whole thing... Which I love!"
.jpg)
.jpg)
.jpg)
On Tadashi: "They chose to do a presentation. They made a set of sorts and just placed the models in it so press can come and check out the whole line. Lots of design houses are choosing to go this route. It seems to save money."
