Vidal Sassoon’s Ode to Architecture

Back in W* 118, we brought together hairdressing legend Vidal Sassoon with his protégé, Bumble & Bumble founder Michael Gordon for our Next Generation issue, and photographed them in Sassoon’s LA home. Gordon has since released the inspirational ‘Vidal Sasson the Movie’, which documents the life of Sassoon, who in the 1960s single-handedly liberated hair from its rigid backcombed clutches and had throngs embracing the sleekness of his ‘wash and wear’ philosophy.
