This season, The Blonds drew inspiration from their favorite in art, animation and pop culture. Specifically referencing Tweety, Marilyn Monroe, Marie Antoinette, Madonna and Jane Fonda. The Blonds found inspiration in “The Original Blonde,” Tweety Bird.
He is definitely a “Blond” with his unpredictable sense of humor and big blue eyes full of mystique framed by those signature fabulous eyelashes. Tweety’s vibrant colors and fun personality embody the feelings for the season.
The hair is the main accessory this season, which was inspired by Tweety’s head and Marie Antoinettes high hair, that sometimes featured live birds. CATWALK® by TIGI® Global Creative Director Nick Irwin took us through a step-by-step on how to achieve the look.
