The Braidy Bunch

Classical, feminine & with a hint of unmistakable cool – braids are weaving their way into the spotlight.

Evoking a 70’s bohemian chic, up-dos embellished with braids are bewitchingly beautiful.

Seen on the heads of stylish women around the world – from Jessica Alba to Marion Cotillard, Elle Fanning to Molly Sims – the braided up-do is the perfect way to frame your pretty face.    

During the Spring / Summer 2012 collections, the humble braid received a refreshingly graceful makeover. At Valentino, braids swooped around the head in playful elegance. Full of enchanting twists and turns, Valentino’s exquisite locks perfectly complemented the whimsically feminine collection.

As one of the prettiest looks from the runway, Valentino’s wrap-around French braid has a lovely soft, romantic nostalgia to it.
