spring hair 2010
trend hunter
Sometimes, something just captures, confuses and inspires you. That is exactly the effect of these quirky animal-inspired hair hats by Japanese art director Nagi Noda. They are truly out of this world. I do not understand or get them, yet I am mesmerized by and love them.
Known for her direction of music videos, TV commercials and ad campaigns for Coca Cola and Nike, Noda turned to the animal kingdom for inspiration in this unique project. The hair pieces depict dogs, lions, cows, rabbits, giraffes, monkeys and other animals.
