New and Notable
October 1, 2009 By: Marianne Dougherty, Lori Morris, Lotus Abrams American SalonSketch Artist
Oribe, whose father was an artist, started drawing pictures of women's faces when he was just a kid. The only difference now is that he's sketching the hairstyles he plans to execute in fashion and beauty magazines. For V Magazine's swimsuit issue this summer—Daria was on the cover—he worked with famed photographer Mario Testino. His notes remind him of which products from his Oribe Hair Care line he needs to use to get the look he wants. —MARIANNE DOUGHERTY

WILD THINGS
Ruth Roche and the Rare Artistic Team—Alana Lucas, Fatima Sheikh and Kevyn Bridgeman—created a new collection of images that seems to be a contradiction in terms. The braids imply constraint, while texture is wild and uncontrolled. "We began conceptualizing by collecting ideas and distilling them down to two concepts, which we blended together," Roche says. —M.D.

Jewel Box
For Fall 2009, the runways forecast vibrant, shimmering colors and glossy fabrics. Dramatic eyes are paired with a nude lip, or subtle eyes let lips take the lead.
