\nWe love his latest creations named Icon Living.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not every day you meet your idol. But then again, that depends on who it is. ICON LIVING is Ben Martin\u2019s latest hair fashion collection. A celebration of sexual and cultural diversity, individualism and freedom, living idol is a collection of six urban characters who are free enough to express themselves in anyway shape or form, including hair and fashion.<\/em>
\nThe inspiration behind Ben Martin\u2019s ICON LIVING collection came from his latest stint hair directing at the Spring \/ Summer runways for New York Fashion Week (September 2017) . While some may go for the conventional catwalks at Bryant Park, it was the offbeat and underground fashion presentations of Baby Ghost and Tefla that grabbed the attention of NYC\u2019s cool youth sect and also Martin\u2019s creative eye.<\/em><\/p>\n
