Inspired by what she refers to as “lightness,” Mara Hoffman’s spring/summer 2015 collection marks the designer’s evolution into a more refined look. During New York Fashion Week, Mara once again teamed up with CATWALK® by TIGI® Global Creative Director Nick Irwin to develop an effortless look that speaks perfectly to the effortless, bohemian girl. They call this the “lived-in, desert braid”—which perfectly captures the spirit of the easy, breezy vibe of the Californian desert.
STEPS
Mist clean, dry hair with CATWALK® by TIGI® Transforming Dry Shampoo to create matte texture.
Separate hair into three sections and gather the back section into a low, loose ponytail. Secure with an elastic.
Braid each section using a 3-strand technique and secure ends with an elastic. Gently pull each braid to loosen, allowing front pieces to fall to frame the face.
Starting on the right side, wrap the side braid around the center braid and secure with an elastic. Repeat on left side.
Gently loosen the finished braid and finish with CATWALK® by TIGI® Session Series Work It Hairspray.
