It was all about the sleek updo, half up and half down hair styles at the 2011 Paris Bridal Catwalk Show, keen to see the freshest first seen trends for myself, I popped over to this romantic capital to capture these top styles and trends to help all my brides to be see what other alternatives there are for making them look their very best on their biggest day.

The classic, couture undo's are still a strong trend and a fantastic alternative to the more undone styles. This is a more traditional look, hair was parted and swept beautifully over the forehead, giving any bride a softer frame to the face.

There was a lot of half up half down looks on the catwalk, for brides who just can't decide on hair up or down, still taking the hair softly off the face, a classic elegance to any bridal look.

Tumbling curls over the shoulders adds to the softness with a vintage boho feel.

Hair accessories were kept to a minimal, with small silver pearls and crystals adding a little modern-vintage glamour and interest.
