Inspired by Nineteenth century shadow puppets and illustrations of fairytales, the collection delves into the world of Victoriana through exaggerated silhouettes and dramatic proportions.

In harmony with the sweeping drapes and billowing volume prevalent in Harris Reed’s ‘Shadow Dance’ collection, Ali Pirzadeh chose to craft equally impactful hairstyles. He introduced a structured side parting with an ‘S’ shape lift at the hairline, and a healthier looking, high shine blow-dry finish. This graphic take on a classic updo incorporates a sense of masculinity, nodding to Harris’s fluid approach to gender.

On partnering with Dyson, Harris Reed says: “I am extraordinarily honored to be partnering with Dyson for my Shadow Dance show this season at the Tate Britain. I am all about things being fluid, natural, organic and I am a massive fan of Dyson and I’m so excited to be one of the first to use the new Supersonic r professional hair dryer. This show is all about championing British artistry so partnering with British innovators like Dyson just felt perfect.”

“Dyson’s commitment to innovation and developing cutting-edge hair technology has real synergy with my own passion for pushing creative boundaries in fashion. Their focus on creating inclusive tools for different diverse hair types is hugely important to me too. Together, we’re redefining the future of style, and I couldn’t be more excited to have Dyson as a sponsor, helping to bring this vision to life.”

Dyson Advocate, Ali Pirzadeh says: “The inspiration for the hair for Harris Reed’s Shadow Dance show began with the collection; following the lines of the garments and seeking to balance the femininity of the silhouettes with a more masculine, graphic hair look.”

“Partnering with Dyson is always so exciting, especially with the launch of the Supersonic r professional hair dryer. Dyson celebrates all hair types and has engineered hair tools that have been developed for professional stylists to create a broad range of looks without the need for extreme heat. It’s been wonderful to celebrate the model’s natural hair types and textures using the Supersonic r professional hair dryer’s range of intelligent attachments. It’s so light and so maneuvrable, it’s like an extension of my own arm.”
