It’s almost April, ladies — and, since springtime is all about rebirth and new beginnings, why not infuse some life into our complexions and give our strands a bit more bounce?
Happy first day of spring!
When designing the Rodarte Fall 2015 collection, Kate and Laura Mulleavy kept referencing migrating birds, winged creatures leaving cold Northern cities in favor of warmer more pastoral surroundings.
Monday may have been the coldest day of the year, but I tried my hardest to bring some heat to Telemundo 47’s “Acceso Total,” where I discussed one of the prevalent fashion trends for the upcoming Spring 2015 season: fringe!
Muted makeup looks have dominated the Fall 2015 runway shows during New York Fashion Week, with models strutting down catwalks with nude or completely bare lips, color-free lids adorned by only a touch of graphic eyeliner, and sheer nude or baby pink nails.
Add Patti Smith’s 1976 hit “Gloria” to your IHeartRadio playlist and try to imagine the punk rock and graffiti art scenes in 1970s New York City or, for that matter, the Andy Warhol-led Pop Art explosion in the lat ’60s.
Both the Maybelline makeup and Kenra Professional hairstyling teams described the beauty look for the SUNO Fall 2015 show as having tribal overtones, but there was a subtlety in their execution that emphasized a mood, a state of mind, rather than underlining a sociocultural group or overtly referencing a specific population or geographic locale.
Since gray and violet hues abounded in the Wes Gordon Fall 2015 collection, nail artist Rita Remark, working on behalf of essie, created a nail look for the designer’s show that incorporated these tones (yes, matchy-matchy is still in for Fall 2015).
In the past, Alexander Wang’s sporty, modern, and city chic collections have drawn inspiration from motorsports to classic sneakers, but for his Fall 2015 collection, the celebrated designer turned to the dark side, giving his looks a decidedly gothic feel.
The beauty looks showcased during the first two days of New York Fashion Spring 2015 have been generally understated, with an emphasis on dewy, almost wet-looking skin, nude or slightly stained lips, neutral lids, and negative space nails.
