After a stiletto-clad marathon across the world’s four fashion capitals, it’s time to take stock of the various trends spotted on the runway for the fall-winter 2017 season. Like for clothing and makeup, hairstyles had a mostly natural vibe at the latest fashion month.

Still, certain designers showed off more sophisticated creations, with glamorous, rock ‘n’ roll and eccentric styles.

The fall-winter 2017 season has several hair trends in store. The runway’s bright dye-jobs, plaits, ponytails, buns (and even double buns) were joined by a host of natural styles, worn loose and relaxed but still perfectly finished.

There are plenty of easy-to-replicate styles to try, for both daytime and evening looks.

Here’s a look at some of the hottest hair trends from the recent Fashion Month, which started February 9 and ran until March 7. JB

In keeping with the collection’s clothes and makeup, hairstyles were dark and edgy, almost provocative. Hair was lightly backcombed then piled up onto the top of the head, with a side parting creating an asymmetric effect with a section of hair left loose at the front. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
J.W.Anderson went for neater styles. The ponytail was low and hair was swept round over one shoulder. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
Hair at Versace was vibrant and contemporary, worn loose but with brightly colored flashes, sometimes in fluorescent yellow. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
Atsushi Nakashima created intricate, complex styles by weaving flat strips into models’ hair. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
Chanel voyaged into space with a futuristic collection matched with volume-boosted hair. Hair was swept back off the face and held in place with jewel-encrusted headbands. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
Fenty x Puma by Rihanna also brought bright colors to hair for winter 2017, seen here with matching eye makeup. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
Alexander McQueen’s ponytails were worn very low, in a “done” yet undone style with crimped strands left loose around the face. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
This Moschino style may not be so easy to recreate at home, unless you happen to have a spare bike wheel, a lot of patience and perfect balance. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
Valentino kept hair soft and loose, with flowing natural locks with a slight wave. Hair was parted in the middle with thin braids on either side of the face. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
Andrew GN covered heads in cornrows, a hot trend for fall-winter 2017. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
Balmain also used cornrows, but only on the top of the head. The rest of models’ hair was swept back into sleek, tight ponytails. Image: AFP/Angela Weiss
