After staying in doors for what feels like an eternity, Anne Veck says we’re altering the way we think and feel about so many things now and one of them is our hair colour.
“While some clients are embracing their natural hair colour, others are making a bold statement,” says Anne Veck. Natural highlights and balayage aren’t going anywhere, but we’re now seeing big blocks of colour on blondes, brunettes and redheads.
Colour blocking was first brought to fashion by Yves St. Laurent. In 1965, he paid tribute to Mondrian by designing A-line cocktail dresses that evoked the painter’s abstract canvases. Their simple cuts, geometric lines and bold colours gave the designer’s collection a modern feel and proved to be incredibly successful. “In this collection I pay homage to these two geniuses of art and fashion,” says Anne Veck.
Piet Mondrian was a Dutch painter and art theoretician who is regarded as one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. He is known for being one of the pioneers of 20th-century abstract art, as he changed his artistic direction from figurative painting to an increasingly abstract style, until he reached a point where his artistic vocabulary was reduced to simple geometric elements.
