This September, the glamour and sophistication of New York's Couture Fashion Week will be enhanced by the exquisite work of one of top fashion and celebrity hair stylists. Federico Calce is an expert in beauty with a passion for style and technique.

Highly acclaimed for his unique and insightful approach to hair styling, Federico has elevated the definition of a mega-modern and contemporary hair dresser.

With a staff of international stylists, Federico prides himself on offering a relaxing and inviting atmosphere with a European edge at his chic salon on Manhattan's tony Upper East Side.

A treasured resource among the world's style setters, Federico pampers society women, actors, models and executives at his luxurious salon with an extensive array of hair services and treatments. "Federico Salon Direct," a 24-hour hair and beauty service was developed to send beauticians any hour of the day or night to a visitor's room in any hotel in the city. Bowing to popular demand, this has been enlarged to include private homes, too.

Federico moved to New York City from his native Milan, Italy in the early eighties, where he worked as master stylist at his family's salon chain.

His talents were immediately recognized and he was appointed Artistic Director of the salon at Bergdorf Goodman. Five years later he launched his first namesake salon, Federico.

"We are excited to be working with Federico during Couture Fashion Week," says event producer Andres Aquino. "His talent and creativity as well as his numerous accomplishments in his field distinguish him as one of the best hair stylists around, and we are really looking forward to seeing some stunning looks to accompany the beautiful fashions on parade."

Federico has created some of the most glamorous and memorable looks to grace top fashion magazines and beauty publications including Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Glamour and Marie Claire. He has coiffed the heads of countless models for Fendi, Valentino, and Armani fashion shows as well as for Oscar de La Renta.

As celebrity stylist at New York's Fashion Week shows, Federico has worked with photographer Timothy Greenfield-Sanders on many celebrities including Eva Longoria, Nicole Richie, Jessie Metcalfe, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Michael Douglas, Rosario Dawson, Sarah Ferguson, Katie Couric, Betsey Johnson, and Rachel Hunter.
