Muse is inspired by the modern integration of world cultures, globalization, and the reality of a borderless world. Emiliano Vitale uses CURL and SHAPE, taking textures from specific periods and mixing them with shapes from different times, creating a new moment—NOW!
1940s waves, 1950s quiffs, and 1980s curls serve as inspiration for the hairstyles of this modern-day MUSE. Particularly fascinating is the relationship between light and shape, used once again with MUSE to reflect a thought, a feeling, a rebellion.
Classic Wave Hairstyle
A modern-day muse, she is the hero of the collection. Inspired by the romantic, structured waves and curls of the 1940s, this hairstyle transcends the borders of time, culture, and style. It captures the elegance of a bygone era, fused with the sultriness of modern-day.
After applying TIGI Catwalk Extra Strong Mousse, the hair was curled with a 3/4 inch barrel tong, then brushed out and molded into the classic wave. Finished with a spritz of TIGI Catwalk Work It Hairspray.
Carefree Curly Hairstyle
Revisit the set of the cult 80s hit Dynasty, and you'll find the inspiration for Alexis. Feminine and seductive, this style features a carefree yet structured movement, offering softness and strength around the face. The long hair was tonged with a larger barrel and then brushed out.
Using a wide-tooth comb and dryer, the width and height at the front hairline were accentuated, creating the ultimate flick. TIGI Catwalk Your Highness Thickening Gel was applied before drying, and the hair was finished with TIGI Your Highness Hard Hold Hairspray and Shine Spray.
Quiff Shape Short Hairstyle
Taking inspiration from the classic quiff, this style infuses a rebellious feel and strength by blending geometric lines with a slight curl. TIGI BedHead Queen for a Day was used to prep the hair before blow-drying it into the quiff shape.
The look was finished with TIGI Bed Head Hard To Get Paste and a light spritz of TIGI Bed Head Head Rush Shine Spray.
Braided and Pinned Hair
Curve is the true merging of technique, texture, and balance, inspired by modern-day looks with 80s braids. The hair was braided and pinned behind the head. Hairpieces in multiple colors were used to build a shape on the crown, featuring a crimped texture.
Additional extensions were attached before cutting into a deep fringe. These multiple hair extensions were secured with a braided focal piece.
Key products used were TIGI Catwalk Camera Ready Spray and TIGI Catwalk Work It Spray.
Roughed-Up Curly Hair
A beautiful variation of Muse, this style infuses the hairstyle with a strong influence from mid-80s curls, yet with a rougher, more modern texture for a lived-in feel. The hair was set with a medium roller, then molded and brushed to give a roughed-up finish.
A combination of TIGI Catwalk Your Highness Root Boost Spray and Thickening Gel was used to set and style. The style was finished with a misting of TIGI Your Highness Hard Hold Hairspray.
1980s Short Crop
The ultimate Muse shape, Dream Girl, draws inspiration from Demi Moore's short crop haircut from the late 1980s, while working with the model's natural texture to give it a Muse twist. The hair was undercut from the drop zone down, leaving the top longer. It was then finger-dried, allowing the natural curl to open up and take its own shape.
Before finger drying, a combination of TIGI Catwalk Curls Rock Curl Booster and TIGI Curl Amplifier was used, before finishing with TIGI Catwalk Curls Rock Hairspray and TIGI Camera Ready Shine Spray.
