FASHION WEEK: Duffy for Oribe Creates Braided Centerpart at CustoCusto Barcelona's Fall/Winter 2013 collection debuted at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York amid a packed house. All were anxious to see "The Beauty and the Beast"-inspired collection.

"The beauty" shows off fitted volumes, pronounced shoulders and ergonomic cuts featured across a selection of short dresses, mini and maxi sweaters and form-fitting overalls. While "the beast" protects itself from the cold of winter in coats featuring varieties of fabrics on the sleeves, such as fur with wool and metal accents.

Duffy for Oribe Haircare was called upon to create a look that complemented the beauty/beast vibe and designed a sever center-parted look, with an on-the-scalp braid from forehead-to-nape. The remaining hair was worn forward, creating the illusion of fullness, regardless of the model's hair type.
