The Botanical Art of Chinatsu Nobe

There is not enough credit given to hair stylists. After all, during Fashion Week, most designer's collections are striking not only for their lavish clothes but also for their spectacular headpieces, including all the accessories that go with it.

At Paris Fashion Week, Katsuya Kamo created fabulous feathered headgears for Junya Watanabe Womenswear collection.

At Japan Fashion Week, Chinatsu Nobe created exceptional flowered headpieces for fur fur 2012 S/S collection. Known for her very creative, vibrant and modern hairstyling, Chinatsu Nobe began her career in 1999 building a clientele between both New York and Tokyo. A former assistant of top hairstylists Yannick d'Is and Luigi Murenu, Chinatsu works now on shows, advertising and editorial for such clients as Proenza Schouler, Richard Chay, Karl Lagerfeld and Zac Posen.
