Hot Hair: Euro Trip

On the Paris and Milan runways, less almost always equalled more. From chic chignons to soft, side-swept waves, Black models at Blumarine, Chloe, and Emilio Pucci, walked in understated, sophisticated dos. The outlier: concentric circular braids conveyed the edginess of Alexander McQueen. Check out our favorite styles here.
