C.Neeon with Sebastian

Sebastian Relaunch Party & Show

On Sunday I went to the big relaunch show and party of Sebastian Professional at the subway tunnel at Potsdamer Platz. I have never been to a “hair” event and I did not know what to expect, but this was quite a big affair actually. The audience I would describe as… interesting. Hairdressers gone wild, you could say, but visually not exactly what my eyes are used to. The whole event centered around a presentational show with a catwalk and live cutting and styling where they presented their fancy new line of products. Hair was flying in a cloud of hairspray, swish, swish, swoosh… et voila, here we have BIG hair.

I was especially happy to see the current fall collection of Berlin-based label C.Neeon on the models that I had already seen on the runway at Fashion Week earlier this year. I need to have this half-transparent sweater! Sadly, they only have the women’s stuff in their online shop. Buhuu!

I also got the chance to go backstage and make some snapshots of the models and stylists (and grab a few leftover styling products of course). But as much as I would have enjoyed to stay for the party (and buffet and free drinks) my hangover and exhaustion of the previous night’s party (and an upcoming cold) just forced me to go home. Impressions after the jump.
