Gilded Bohemia

Evocative of ancient, slightly mythological origins…references (such as Valentino cited) to ancient Rome, animal motifs and polished symbolism, the gilded hair adornment to grace recent catwalks offers an exquisitely luxe, bohemian take on hair, for the non-traditional bride.

Mixing celestial accents of molten golds and starry motifs, combined with natural references (think molten dipped leaves at Dolce & Gabbana and delicate floral tendrils at Elie Saab Haute Couture), these unexpected crowns, although rich in heirloom inspiration, appear entirely new…an opulent, almost bohemian black-tie statement of jewelled adornment.

Paired with a red lip (as seen at Dolce & Gabbana) these crowns evoke a bold, jewel like femininity, while a barer, bronzed face (Valentino Haute Couture in style) appears as a more natural take on exotic. Style with hair loosely braided or pinned, alternatively, pull hair partially back from the face and twist beneath crowns.
