An Important post I forgot!!

This post is probably the most important one in demostrating how I came up with my final design for my hair look!! these are the two chosen images I  have decided to use and I have taken elements from each one to come up with my own creation, a blend of the two with and extra modern twist.
The first Picture is this old Elizabethan portrait of the Queen herself, with a typical Elizabethan Heart shape hairstyle. I also like the lace which is pictured running from one end of the heart to the other along the top line.

 

 

The second image I am going to use is this image of the singer Rhianna. I chose this picture because I like the way her hair colour is very Elizabethan as Queen Elizabeth the I was famously a redhead. This style is very Elizabethan with the long plat running from the top of her head around and down into one single wide plat which rests on her shoulders.

 



 

 

 

My design incorporates both a heart shape and a plat. The plat stars from just above the ar on one side and runs around the hairling all the way back to where it started with a wonky lop sided heart shape resting to one side of the head. I deliberately positioned the herat to one side to give the hair an un-symetrical look which give the style a more contemporary feel. True Elizabethan hairstyles were often symmetrical and I wated to break away fom this and create something slightly different. placed between the french plat and the heart will run a double a string of blue pearls which gives the effect of a modern day hairband, i chose to do this because Queen Eizabeth was known to be a big fan of pears and they give the style a traditional Elizabethan look whilst at the same time being blue gives them a contemporary edge. However to bring the style back to the modern day once again the plat wil be painted using Aqua colour, Pink, Purple and gold. I chose bright Barbie like pink because it is not  a colour that is associated with Elizabethan fashion, and the Purple to represent regality.
