There are not many of us that don?t give some thought to food. Naturally in varying degrees. What we tend to forget though is that our hair needs food and the proper ones just like the rest of our body. We have this unique way of thinking that hair is some type of separate entity from the rest of our body.

Fat plays many important roles in our nutrition such has aiding in the absorption of the vitamins and nutrients of the other foods we consume. When we refer to fats, we are not talking about the fat in those french fries you may be thinking about. It is in reference to the unsaturated fats that you are automatically going to eat when you incorporate a healthy diet.

There are multiple ways to get the fats you need. For example, avocadoes are a great source. The greatest choices are the various seeds like sunflower or nuts such has pecan, walnut or almond just to name a few. Then from there you can enjoy the tuna, salmon and olive oil, which makes the perfect meal for your hair.

The other focus was on the use of light in and through fabrics: perforation and oversized aertexing gave pieces a unanimous mood of texture and depth. From shoes and hats to shirts and knitwear, light pierced the surface of all the key looks. Knitwear was largely sleeveless; funnel-neck tops had their arms completely removed; polo shirt sleeves were shrunken to appear capped. Houndstooth was also given the Prada update, used beautifully on a grey raglan-sleeved coat and cropped slim-leg trouser.

Moschino is one of the sleeper brands of Milan and since the death of the eponymous designer back in the Nineties it has struggled to find prominence. This is a shame as it is a reliably pleasing. The collection this summer was very concise but none the worse for it.

The colour palette was largely black and white but with scatterings of drops of colour like flowers on the ultra-skinny low-rise jean. When Moschino did show colour it was electric – literally and figuratively – in a teal silk suit that could stop traffic. These weren’t clothes for work, they were for the weekend. But they made you hope it would be a long one.
