The Davines hairstyles collection by Tim Hartley oozes art and design from every strand. Strong hair colors, contrasts, and the graphic nature of the shapes are inspired by the photography of Herb Ritts and the world of movies, especially in the art house and film noir genres. Women are portrayed as strong and confident beneath their controlled exteriors.
The blend of art forms translated into hair is a masterpiece that comes in three haircuts—short, medium, and long—which are then styled into four variations each. Extreme textures replace sleek surfaces and vice versa. Straight lines turn wild and voluminous.
Short Haircut with High Volume
A memory of the early decades of the last century is conjured by the intricate shape of this black and raspberry-colored short haircut.
The diagonal fringe is the centerpiece of both variations. The first example is a touch more controlled and styled with distinct lines and shapes, with sleek shine alternating with determined movement. The second look features delightful turbulence with high volume and a frothy swirl of two-tone hair.
Face-Framing Short Hairstyle
Twiggy and Edie Sedgwick are the godmothers of this intense face-framing short hairstyle. A curved fringe reaches from one cheekbone to the other and dominates the entire structure.
Here, the radical contrast of the dark hair color and the lava red berry tone emerges to its full potential with a glossy shine. The slight forward movement brings a captivating and deeply intriguing energy to the smooth and simple lines.
Blue Hair Coloring
The color of eternity meets rock in this medium-long but far-from-mediocre haircut. A nod to Patti Smith is evident. One half of the dominant fringe is laser-straight with a sharp line ending just below the eye. The other half takes a steep angle across the cheek.
This blunt cut incorporates many classic elements, all elevated to postmodern hair art with the exquisite blue coloring.
Modern Wavy Hairstyle
Two totally different expressions are based on the same haircut as in the previous pictures. The magic and power of hairstyling should never be underestimated.
A ruffled, modern look that works with the hair's innate slightly wavy structure, all fluffed up and shaped to casual volume, is worlds and even decades away from the classic film star styling of the second hairstyle.
All-Time Long Hairstyle
Proportions are the subject of a creative play that features an extremely straight fringe and rounded, textured lengths that fall way below the shoulders. The simplicity and appeal of this all-time long hairstyle remind one of Jane Birkin and other fashion and style icons of the '60s and '70s.
Long Hair with Sleekness
The iridescent yet subdued copper tone adds a dramatic element to the simplistic long hairstyle with the laser-sharp fringe. For straight hair to be this beautiful, it has to be perfectly healthy.
1950s Style for Long Hair
Large waves turn into tighter curls progressively from top to bottom, pumping up the volume of this long coppery hair. Again, the fringe is key and it has been styled inward in a thick rolling curve. A 1950s style with passionate volume and movement makes this one of the most coveted looks of the season.
Softened Waves and Curls
The previous hairstyle is here slightly deconstructed. The fringe and the definition of the waves and curls are softened, which benefits the volume of the very long hair even more. Boosted to a wild and scrumptious mane, one hardly recognizes the basic look from the first picture that lies beneath.
