Stripes – Franco Vallelonga
Hair Collection · 2006
Stripes is Franco Vallelonga at his most graphic. The collection plays with striking contrast and precise, architectural texture: spiked, directional men’s crops give way to tousled shags and voluminous curls, all set against a cool, monochrome, striped backdrop for maximum impact. Sharp, modern and unapologetically editorial.
It is a bolder edge of 2006. Alongside the era’s soft, lived-in texture ran a sharper, more graphic men’s line – spiked, product-defined crops and architectural, directional shapes built for the studio. Vallelonga’s Stripes, finished with Kiehl’s, sits firmly on that side: precise, high-contrast and made for impact.
