Kerasilk x Rachel Gilbert (They Meet Again)
Kerasilk has once more partnered with Rachel Gilbert on the Resort 24 Fluidity collection featuring hair by National Kerasilk Ambassador, Kirby Lago.
Resort 24 was shot in two stages – in studio and on location across Sydney bars and restaurants that the Rachel Gilbert socialite might frequent. Black sand was shipped into the studio to emulate the ocean floor. While the Sydney shoot included a convenience store pit stop, for those afternoons that turn into late evenings.
National Kerasilk Ambassador Kirby Lago created two hair looks; In Studio saw the model’s hair middle parted with soft waves, with more relaxed self-styled hair for the on-location shoot. “I wanted to create hair that moved, waves and texture with no hard lines that’s natural and understated. The Kerasilk Styling range is ideal for softer finishes, it brushes through beautifully with no crunch for hair that looks and feels like silk.” Said Kirby Lago.
Recreate the Looks:
In Studio
Step 1: Hair is prepped with Kerasilk Liquid Cuticle Filler and Kerasilk Taming Balm to smooth
down the hair.
Step 2: Blow dry in the soft wave shape.
Step 3: Hair is middle parted almost to crown.
Step 4: Polish the look and secure fly aways with Kerasilk Finishing Cream
On Location
Step 1: The look was inspired by how the Rachel Gilbert wearer might do her hair herself for a
night out. Natural, understated and brushed out. Hair is prepped with Kerasilk Restorative Balm
for moisture, followed by Kerasilk Volumizing Styling Foam for grip and longevity.
Step 2: Blow dry in soft movement, waving the hair in a natural shape.
Step 3: Brush out the hair, sealing down roots and ends using Kerasilk Finishing Cream and set
with a soft spray of Kerasilk Multi-Purpose Hairspray.

L’Oréal Professionnel and Christopher Esber debut Paris Fashion Week Show
Christopher Esber cemented its position on the global stage at the Paris Fashion Week show, located at the iconic Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine. As the exclusive hair partner, L’Oréal Professionnel invited a team of its top 10 Australian and New Zealand artists to execute all hair deliverables for the show, headed up by Director and revered, award winning hairdresser Scott Sloan.
A monumental first for the Australasian arm of the L’Oréal Professionnel brand, and one that achieved paramount success, the partnership highlighted the incredible talent and passion of AUNZ stylists, and distinctly cemented their rightful place amongst the world’s best. The team of 10 artists delivered looks for 35 models in total, with creative direction centred on forming looks that elevated and aligned with Christopher Esber’s SS24 collection.
Scott Sloan was well placed to lead the team of artists as Hair Director, with undisputed experience in fashion having been a regular fixture at both Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia and New York, London & Milan Fashion Week as well as Hair Director for the Perth Fashion Festival for 4 years, overseeing 25 runway shows. Christopher Esber’s C1 - Internal use SS24 Paris Fashion Week Show encompasses and reinforces Scott’s experience as one of Australia’s leading stylists.
"It’s a super exciting experience being here with L’Oréal Professionnel and being the hair director for Christopher Esber’s first time showing at Paris Fashion Week. Directing the show has fulfilled a lifetime dream of mine and being able to do it with the L’Oréal Professionnel ANZ hair team here in Paris was so inspirational,” said Sloan. “For the look we were really inspired by the collection from Christopher Esber's collection. The hair brief was to have a very organic, textured and not man-made feel to the hair. It’s very lived in, organic and asymmetrical in its texture. We used the L’Oréal Professionnel range to push the organic feel and worked with each of the models’ natural texture to enhance and shape the hair” Sloan continued.
