Makeup artist Erin Parsons seems to have recalled Maria Von Trapp’s “Favorite Things” when creating the beauty look for the Jonathan Simkhai Fall 2016 show during New York Fashion Week — particularly the “snow flakes that stay on your nose and eyelashes” entry in her list.
The nail look created by Michelle Saunders for essie for the Rebecca Minkoff Fall/Winter 2016 show was characterized by a distinctively ’70s color scheme and a geometric motif that nodded to a retro era while staying grounded in contemporary terms.
Though we’ve seen some bold pouts during New York Fashion Week AW16 thus far, there’s also been a surprising number of minimalist beauty looks involving lips neutralized with concealer, cheeks and mouths given just a hint of pink or peach color (dabbed in for an even more subdued effect), eyelids left completely bare or dusted with ruddy earth tones or a lavender wash, and nails coated with sheer polishes.
For Fall 2016, the brother-and-sister design duo behind Nicholas K stayed true to their brand’s urban nomad aesthetic while also giving their wares a dressier feel thanks to the use of luxurious fabrics like crushed velvet and rich ruby and amethyst hues.
The Rachel Antonoff FW16 collection was inspired by the spunky working women portrayed in film — from Melanie Griffith’s turn as an ambitious secretary with a ruthless, idea-stealing boss in Working Girl to Diane Keaton’s portrayal of a career-driven management consultant who leaves her fast-paced life after becoming the guardian to a deceased cousin’s infant child and reinvents herself as a mompreneur in Baby Boom.
Makeup artist Gato served as Maybelline New York’s key makeup artist at the Marissa Webb Fall 2016 show during New York Fashion Week.
Rosario Dawson, Judy Reyes, Ana Ortiz, Zoe Saldana, and Adrienne Bailon would all approve.
Love is a many splendored thing — and so are the thoughtful gifts we’ve amassed in Part 3 of our Valentine’s Day gift guide.
Granted: the Valentine’s Day gift-giving scene was simpler in junior high school, when heart grams and boxes of chocolate were the norm, but these trinkets weren’t exactly renowned for their originality.
Gals’ hearts will race should they be so fortunate as to receive one of these romantic gifts come Valentine’s Day.
