Another NYFW for the books, but this season the hair stole the show. Fashion month usually delivers easy, off-duty hair that typically embraces the models’ natural texture for barely-touched tresses to let the clothes take center stage–but this season key stylists and designers went a bit rogue and opted for show-stopping mane moments that we can’t wait to emulate ourselves. From ’70s texture to fluttery hair accessories and chains–fall 2019 is decidingly playful and favors the bold. Ahead, five key trends from New York Fashion Week Fall 2019 that we are already wearing.
Statement-Making Braids
Never have we ever met a braid we didn't like, and Fall 2019 is shaping up to be the season of the braid. Be it colorful, tied up in pigtails or snatched down the back–we have a feeling braids will be en vogue well past festival season.

Heavy Metals
It's real treat when a designer allows the hair to take center stage–and such was the case at Christian Siriano where TRESemme key stylist Justine Marjan fastened punky chainmail into low ponies for maximum rock-n-roll impact.

Buzzing Butterflies
Leave it to Rodarte to always bring hair accoutrements aplenty. And while butterflies weren't the only things decorating the models' manes backstage, they were definitely the highlight. Butterflies also were the topper of choice at Alice + Olivia, where a flock of rainbow flutters were the perfect topper to beautiful sleek low buns.

Technicolor
Pinterest told us that lavender hair was going to be the breakout trend for 2019, and all signs are pointing to yes after seeing the technicolor wigs by Garren and IGK on the runways at Anna Sui. Brilliant blue on Bella Hadid and candy colored pinks and oranges lit up the runway for a moment so poptimistic it would make Andy Warhol smile.
