Mr Asia – 1971 by Sara Allsop, 2025 AHIA New Zealand Hairdresser of the Year, Sara Allsop Mr. Asia ’71 is more than a collection — it’s a portrait of controlled chaos. It’s about the men who built their empire in silence. Inspired by the real faces of a underground world: polished, dangerous, and always in control. Collars exaggerated — long and pointed, Shirts with prints: paisleys, florals, or abstract patterns. Colors ranged from burnt orange to deep burgundy. Button


Style Inspiration: Celestial by Ann Marie Young
Celestial features six powerful, otherworldly queens. I envisage each of them as superhuman, divine galactic rulers. The contrasting colours and layering textures of space and planets have inspired me: from fiery golds, reds and oranges through to deep greens, blues and silvery hues. I have interwoven the striking shades and quiet movement of the Aurora Borealis and Australis throughout the collection with a dreamy blend of blues, greens and purples. The looks channel otherwo

Style Inspiration: The Dance of Time by Emma Boyle
The Dance of Time This is a ballerina's journey told through a haunting series. Each character represents a phase of struggle and transformation - an ode to the beauty of ballet and hair as an expression of identity. Hot Mess. A dancer lost in despair and doubt. She's struggling and vulnerable. Her hair becomes chaotic, falling apart. A symbol of internal collapse. Shadowed Rival. Structured hair, symbolising restraint. She has a quirky edge, everything comes easy to her.


Style Inspiration POS NEG by Elly Paynter
‘POS NEG‘ explores the dynamic relationship between positive and negative space, interpreted through hair cutting and colour. Inspired by the tension and harmony that exists between being present and being absent, each look uses bold split tones, colour blocking, and dramatic shapes, creating a juxtaposition between that positive and negative space. Feature colours of red, orange, and blue are intermixed with anchor tones of black, brown, and blonde to create structured voids

Style Inspiration: Shogun by Tim Scott-Wright & Teri Lowe
This collection takes inspiration from traditional Japanese fashion and cultural style. Through powerful, bold shapes, the images portray strong, warrior-like women. Using structure, texture and colour, the collection has a fierce feminine attitude. The styling is high-end, couture, using a muted palette with accent colours, such as red, orange and yellow to strike an interesting contrast.

Style Inspiration: Retro Synth by Paul James Graham
I was inspired by the presence of AI and Retro Synth music, hence the collection title, Retro-Synth. I wanted to push boundaries and create looks that took on an AI aesthetic. Society tasks AI with creating so many things for us. From artwork to writing, there seems to be nothing that AI hasn't touched. I decided to turn the question on myself, "What could AI task me with creating in the real world?" I did this all while listening to 80's infused, retro-synth music. The meani
