Summer in Charlotte Street
Summer is here, and whether you're jetting off or staying local, we've got everything you need to keep your hair looking its best this season.
At Paris Fashion Week 2026, hair moved beyond simply complementing the clothes – it became an architectural extension of the collections themselves. If 2025 leaned heavily into quiet luxury and understated naturalism, the new season marked a confident shift toward sculptural precision, amplified texture, and a renewed sense of glamour.
Tamara Ralph, known for haute couture, bridal, and accessories, continues to define modern, feminine luxury. Asian-inspired, origami-influenced styles extended into the hair designs. Whether ultra-cropped or long, the hair featured super-sculpted shapes, with incorporated pieces on some looks, reinforcing the architectural precision of the collection.
Elie Saab, renowned for sophisticated femininity, intricate hand embroidery, and fairytale-like garments, evoked Mediterranean jet-set 1970s nostalgia. The mood was one of enhanced, glamorous freedom. Hair was worn down in voluminous waves, alongside precision-cut long bobs with fringe, finished in full, voluminous blow-dries for an effortless effect. It was high fashion with a hedonistic soul – where opulence and nonchalance coexisted. An elegant glam-diva aesthetic was complemented by select sleek hair-ups.
Valentino Couture presented exquisite eveningwear in an immersive, cinematic show – richly opulent, romantic, and hypnotic. Afro hair was worn out, long hair was crimped, and natural textures were enhanced with a sleek, high-shine finish. There was a strong presence of hair worn down, face-framing fringe, and beautifully detailed curly long bobs, with meticulous attention to detail throughout.
In between the shows, Bulgari unveiled its new jewel-like “Minaudière” bag collection. Models wore hairstyles blending house heritage – French plaits and strong eyeliner – with a modern edge: hair worn down with a French leisure sensibility and luxurious shine. The hair perfectly complemented the design of these iconic pieces, bridging culture and fashion.
