Josephine Skriver Embraces the Dark Arts

One day into New York fashion week and we already have a hair-color story to report. This morning, backstage at Richard Chai Love, we did a double take before recognizing Josephine Skriver, as the fair-haired Danish beauty has parted ways with her signature light blonde locks. “I just needed a change,” Skriver said of the somewhat impulsive decision to go a shade of milk chocolate at New York’s Ruggeri salon a mere week before the Fall collections got under way. “I feel more…me,” the catwalker contended, pointing out that her natural strands are a dark dirty blonde while the lightened locks she frequently sports tend to make everything more “princess-y.” There is something more brooding about the brunette, don’t you think?
