During fashion week, the line between friends and publicists, hair stylists, and makeup artists gets blurred since you see very little of the former and a whole lot of the latter. Abiding by this line of reasoning, I count Odile Gilbert as a compatriot for two months out of the year. Known as “the high priestess of hair,” she’s worked her magic backstage at Alexander Wang, Rodarte, Chanel, Christian Lacroix, and Jean Paul Gaultier, among others, and in addition to a slew of commercial work, she was also responsible for Kirsten Dunst’s hair confections during the production of Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette. But while I may have the pleasure of talking tresses with Gilbert semiannually, I didn’t realize that my pal was so green-leaning until Leonor Greyl’s summer press dossier crossed my desk. Turns out, Gilbert’s been a fan of the all-natural French brand for as long as she can remember and counts its high-quality technical performance and nature-oriented products—as well as the fact that “they smell fantastic”—among the reasons that she chose to style Greyl’s summer campaign starring Italian model Marpessa. Included in her prescription for keeping hair protected and at bay this season, Gilbert recommends Greyl’s collection of oils, masks, and styling creams, specifically the Éclat Naturel, which she swears by for wavy and frizzy textures. “It makes hair ultra-shiny without affecting volume,” she says. Note to self: Discuss natural beauty with Gilbert the next time we “hang out.”
