Last week, on the eve of London Fashion Week, Fearne Cotton launched her latest clothing line for Very.co.uk, and both lady and designs were bright, bold and bouffantastically retro!

Joining the ranks of bouffant lovers such as Adele and Katy Perry, Fearne Cotton is proof that big is beautiful and the sixties are still very much in vogue!

If you’re keen on freshening up your day-to-day hairstyle repertoire, we think Ms Cotton’s beehive style is a brilliant addition! Whether you opt for sleek and elegant or rough and edgy, the beehive is dramatic, fresh and super trendy.

Replicate Fearne Cotton’s look by following these simple steps:

• Begin by running a volume-enhancing mousse through towel-dried hair to create texture


• Throw your head upside down and roughly blow wave your hair for volume


• Create your desired parting and form 3 sections (front, top/middle and back)


• Taking the top/middle section, tease your hair from the roots to the ends focusing on the crown of your head for additional volume


• Slightly smooth and gather the teased hair together, and shape it into a beehive of your preferred height - secure with hairpins


• Draw the front sections back to join the secured “beehive” section and pin together (leave a few strands loose to frame your face)


• Take the back section (adding any free hair leftover from the beehive) and loosely pull your locks back into a relaxed ponytail just above the nap of your neck


• Fashion a simple French roll by twisting the ponytail upwards and inwards against your head (If you have long hair you’ll need to twist and fold the end of your ponytail back down, tucking the end into the French roll)


• Secure the twist in place with hairpins (horizontally).


• Complete your masterpiece with a generous spritzing of hair spray

Absolutely fabulous darling!
