For the Christian Siriano Spring 2010 collection, Antoinette Beenders, Vice President and Global Creative Director for Aveda, created a clever play of smooth versus rough. Hair was sleek and groomed on each side of the head and through the ponytail, with a slightly rough, matte finish on top and elegant, textured waves pinned above the pony - chic and contemporary with a bit of attitude.
Antoinette said, “Christian and I worked together to create a hair look that reflects the inspiration behind his collection: waves and the ocean, with shimmering silks, silvers, and blues. I call this look the “wave” because of the back-combed wave that floats atop the ponytail.”
To get the look, “Using a fine comb, separate the front/top of hair and part it into a horseshoe shaped section on the top of the head. Tie the rest of hair into a low ponytail. Rake the front/top of hair back with Aveda Light Elements™ Texturizing Creme, and curl with a curling rod. Brush through curls and backcomb slightly, then pin teased hair to the base of the ponytail, creating loose, textured waves. Finish look with Aveda Air Control™ Hair Spray.”

Definitely something I've never seen before! I wouldn't wear my hair like that, but I applaud the creativity!
