Marc Jacobs SS2016 disheveled party girls
We have seen plenty of blue aquatic eyeshadow down the runway this SS2016 season but, so far, the best look of all is the one showcased at Marc Jacobs. No doubt this is the most awaited backstage of NYFW and that is simply because Marc and NARS give beauty just as much thought as the collection. Back on the look, this time around the whole idea was to have party girls strolling down the catwalks looking “a little worn with too much mascara, just the right amount of colour, no foundation and dark circles under the eyes” as François Nars said backstage. No, they don’t like pretty, they are just too busy partying until the morning and sleeping until the next party. It’s very downtown, very East Village “there’s a lot of shine on the checks and eyes - they almost look greasy and a bit tired, but still so beautiful”. Or, better, I would say cool.
Long story short, few were the hero-products used backstage but, all of them were applied in copious quantity: NARSskin Luminous Moisture Cream, Solomon Islands Eye Paint and Audacious Mascara.
