Creative Geniuses At The V&A

Alex was in action again, working as part of the session styling team for Darren Fowler (Fowler35 London) at the Fashion in Motion Show at the V&A Museum, Kensington. This event featured the innovative and ground breaking fashion of designer Fredrik Tjaerandsen as launched last year at his debut event at Central St Martins which got huge press and social media attention.

The event was a huge success and Alex and Wispers were proud to support Fredrik and Darren at this major showcase.

Wispers Competes in the L’Oreal Colour Trophy Semi Final – London

Alex and Joe made it through to the semi final of the prestigious L’Oreal Colour Trophy 2019 #LCT19 and attended the event on Tuesday April 9th at the AmbikaP3 venue in central London. This was a well attended event judged by a panel of hairdressing legends such as Sophia Hilton and Darren Fowler and our entry in the Men’s Image category was up against an extremely high standard of competition. The event involved final preparation in front of assessors and then a cat walk in front of the audience to be judged by the panel.

Unfortunately we did not make it through to the final, but it was a fantastic experience, lots of compliments and Alex and Joe did a fantastic job and we could not have asked for more. Our model, Marcus Hodson was amazing and great to work with and most importantly looked amazing. Bring on #LCT20 and congratulations to Alex and Joe!
