When designer Di Petsa wanted mermaid hair on every model for her runway, Cofone had to work with a small budget: “I was like, OK well, there’s not going to be any time to do full heads of extensions,” so instead she focused on structure and shape rather than the amount of hair itself.
When she’s not styling global stars like Lana Del Rey or Margaret Qualley, Cofone works with designers on the ‘big four’ fashion week shows – across London, Paris, Milan and New York.
Having worked with the Princess of Wales’ favourite designers, including Roksanda and Erdem, as well as Harry Styles’ go-to label, S.S. Daley, Cofone knows better than anyone how to merge high fashion with fun fads in the thick of a backstage environment.
London Fashion Week is as much about fulfilling a creative vision as it is about thinking on your feet, and for Cofone, the joy lies in the collaboration.
Through studying Bausch’s fluid movements, Cofone conceptualised a deconstructed ballet bun: slicked back in the front but falling apart in the back, combining sharp structure with an ethereal softness.
