Men Approaching a Big-Hair Moment; Issey Miyake’s New Limited-Edition Fragrance

HAIR
• Men, it’s time to grow out your hair. The trend for men’s hair this spring is going to be James Dean and retro-inspired — big, bold, and voluptuous. [WWD]

MAKEUP
• Plum is the color for fall lips and eyes, from mascara to shadow and gloss. [StyleHive]

• Shiseido makeup director Dick Page created the fall 2009 color collection, available now, which includes colors that were previewed on the Michael Kors and Narciso Rodriguez runways. [Butterfly Diary]

FRAGRANCE
• Perfumer Lyn Harris is helping create a Champagne tea menu at a London restaurant because perfumers and wine specialists share the same heightened sense of smell. “Because of my training, I am very comfortable with talking about smells and about complex notes. That it is about wine, rather than fragrance, is almost immaterial,” Harris says. [Times UK]

• A 1997 drawing by Ettore Sottsass inspired the limited-edition perfume bottle that Issey Miyake is releasing this week in France. Only 2,000 were made, in handblown glass, and they are selling for $436.40 at the current exchange rate. [WWD]
