salons come for training in superior
techniques, to exchange ideas in
craft and business and fi nd inspira-
tion. The
University has schools in
design, salon
business management
and
leader ship. This year, for the fi rst
time,
Bumble and bumble went on
tour, as its experts traveled around the
country to bring a deeper immersion
of Bumble and bumble cutting-edge
style, expertise and culture to salons.
Bumble and bumble has opened its
legendary eighth fl oor in its chic NYC
Meatpacking District headquarters to
up-and-coming young fashion designers to show their collections during Fashion Week. After
three years of collaboration with the fashion industry, the eighth fl oor has a reputation as a launch
pad for fashion iconoclasts and innovators — and as one of the premier small-show venues.
The hair at the Fall/Winter 2008 collections shown at The House of Bumble drew both from
iconic looks from decades past and original creations hinting at eras to come. Whatever the
reference, the hair was daring, innovative and the perfect showcase for Bumble and bumble
styling expertise.
As Bumble and bumble continues to focus on strong
North American growth and expanding its strength
in the United Kingdom, it is setting the stage for
further expansion in Europe.
Overwhelming consumer response greeted two hair
care product launches from Aveda in fi scal 2008,
while its Dry Remedy Moisturizing System continues
to turn heads. Smooth Infusion has blossomed into a
major new franchise. In addition to shampoo and
conditioner, the line includes Style-Prep Smoother.
