The Day of the Ginger is Now - Red Heads Are Ruling the Media
Not everyone loves the gingers, but they sure are able to make a loud impact for a small people. Right now red heads are the hottest models, actors, muscians and politicians around. And no amount of name calling ('ginger rodent' really?) is going to stop them dominating the media. And right here on StyleGuideCT we love us a ginger.
I mention this of course beacuse of the kerfuffle caused in the UK parliament this weekend with the whole name calling incident of Danny Alexander. But this wasn't enough to provoke this post. No, that was the article in the New York Times declaring red heads as the 'carriers of the torch.' Read it here.
The article says, "right now red hair is not just one woman’s statement — it’s a chorus. The subtly auburn girl-next-door actress Emma Stone, of Easy A and Superbad, made her Saturday Night Live debut last weekend. Kristen Stewart attempted a strawberry blond while her co-star Bryce Dallas Howard fires up the red carpet with flaming locks. During New York Fashion Week...Mulberry sent models with thick-banged cherry-colored wigs stomping around the Soho House’s rooftop pool. YSL features the red-headed model Karen Elson in new ads for Opium perfume. The auburn-haired Julianne Moore is on the cover of the November issue of Allure, while Christina Hendricks, of Mad Men, who has perhaps done more to reinvigorate the color than anyone else, appears on the November cover of Harper’s Bazaar."
The article goes on to discuss music as well with high profile red heads Florence and the Machine and Hayley from Paramore getting name checked.
“Out of all the colors it makes the most statement — it infers personality,” said Lucia Mace, the stylist on Mad Men, "red is wild and sexy and powerful.”
