When looking into Estella's hair design I wanted to create a sophisticated clean cut look; not making it too simple or child- like.
These images below are going to be my main influences, a absolutely adore the Apollo knot with the fan hair popping out the top. It looks so royal and will suit Estella's personality, sharp and methodical.

I chose this image as inspiration due to the use of flowers in her hair, it really emphasises her curls and apollo knot. I also love the parting a 'V' shape is a really nice twist on a normal centre parting.

These paintings of Countess Von Berchem show the romanticism in the curls, so soft and light, starting high up and coming down to frame the face, and show the natural beauty of the sitter.
