RUNWAY INSPIRATION: At Diane von Furstenberg, Naeem Khan and Jenny Packham, hair appeared to have tumbled out of an old-fashioned curl set and into low-lying waves. Worn with structured separates, it’s a casually glamorous style for a lunch-with-wine date.

RECREATE IT: Hair stylist Susana Hong worked mousse into damp hair, rough-dried it, then wound small sections around a curling iron, holding the barrel horizontally and wrapping them underneath, turning all the way to the scalp; then she clipped each curl close to the head to set. Once the hair cooled, she released the curls and brushed out the waves well to make them loose and fluffy. Gravity did the rest.

TIP: While a classic curl set using hot rollers gives the right effect, the “cook time” is longer—using a curling iron and clipping the loops gets you out the door faster. If the curls are too tight, blow-dry the ends while pulling them down.
