Fashion Week Fall 2011: NARS for Thakoon
SHOW: Thakoon LEAD ARTIST: Diane Kendal for NARS Cosmetics TREND: Tribal eyes and muted lips INSPIRATION: “The collection draws inspiration from the opulence of the Rococo period and the style of the Masai tribe in Africa,” said designer Thakoon Panichgul. “There are a lot of primary colors, but also gorgeous marabou feathers, so we wanted to create a balance to everything to ensure it was really believable. We’ve always done fresh, pretty, natural, and it was time for a strong makeup look.” LOOK: “With Thakoon’s references to this idea of tribal opulence, I felt that if we were going to do “color” it would have to be focused on the eye with one central color theme, and nothing else. There was a lot of youth in the group of models, so we wanted to keep the look very fresh. Red was a natural choice, complimenting the use of color throughout the collection” FACE * Brightening Serum * Concealer (NEWLY formulated for Fall 2011; for now, try the existing Concealer) * Penny Lane Cream Blush EYES * Dragon Girl Velvet Matte Lip Pencil * Taj Mahal Blush * Desire Blush * Exhibit A Blush * Night Snow Single Eyeshadow LIPS * Concealer (NEWLY formulated for Fall 2011; for now, try the existing Concealer) nars
