Graphic statements at Chanel Couture SS2016

EPIC. This is the only word that can sum up the beauty look at Chanel’s Spring 2016 Haute Couture show. Hair was very french, so much so that Sam McKnight on his Instagram account dubbed the style with the hashtags #hairrolls and #chanelcroissant while Tom Pecheux framed the eyes with a elongated double stroke that made a graphic statement.

EPICO. Questa l’unica parola che può riassumere il beauty look portato in passerella da Chanel per l’Haute Couture Primavera Estate 2016. Sam McKnight, a capo dell’hairstyle, ha definito la sua creazione (molto french) con gli hashtag #hairrolls e #chanelcroissant facendo impazzire Instagram nel giro di un nanosecondo mentre Tom Pecheux ha incorniciato gli occhi con dei grafismi di tutto punto.

Savoir-Faire at Fendi SS2016

The covetable, yet unexpected, look at Fendi Fall 2015

Covetable, yet unexpected were the watchwords backstage at Fendi 2015. After neoprene eyeliners and fur faux-hawks, this season both Peter Philips and Sam Mcknight went back to use more classic materials to counterbalance the very controlled collection and create a deconstructed look made of an imprecise eye with super clog lashes and undone hair embellished by rushed leather headbands.

Inaspettato. Questa la miglior parola per descrivere il beauty look per il prossimo inverno di Fendi, pensato e creato con l’idea di bilanciare una collezione molto controllata, quasi matematica. Focus su occhi imprecisi e impregnati di mascara, dunque, e su acconciature disordinate adornate da fasce di pelle arricciate.

Haute Couture Spring 2015: Flower power - the Chanel Way

Flower Power, in stile Karl Lagerfeld, per la sfilata Chanel Haute Couture Printemps-Eté 2015. Nel contesto immancabilmente grandioso di un flower market fatto di origami surreali e fiori meccanici, le modelle hanno portano in passerella hairstyle degni di nota fissati (sotto notevoli copricapi con tanto di tulle e velette) in morbide trecce chiuse sul fondo da delicati fiori di stoffa. Sotto tutto questo grandeur spuntano ammiccanti labbra rosa-tulipano (per non perdere il fil rouge floreale) e sguardi avvolti in una nuvola taupe cha asseconda alla perfezione il mood stravagante dello spettacolo.

Leave it to Karl Lagerfeld to make satin-flower hair accessories and fishnet masks cool again. At Chanel Haute Couture Spring 2015, models walked down the runway with their hair secured (under remarkable hats) with a strip of mesh or woven into a loose braid, fastened at the end with delicate fabric flowers. Peeking out from all this grandeur tulip-pink lips looked absolutely striking whereas the heavy band of taupe shadow that was swathed around eyes and brows accompanied perfectly the whimsical mood of the show.

Chanel gives opulence a modern twist at Métiers d'Art Show in Salzburg

Dalla location regale e Rococò del Castello di Leopoldskron alle giacche delicatamente ricamate fino al makeup delineato d’oro, tutto parlava di opulenza all’ultimo Show Métiers d'Art Paris-Salzburg di Chanel. Non sorprende dunque che gli abiti portati in passerelle siano stati stupefacenti così come il beauty look, che non è passato inosservato neanche questa stagione.

From the royal and romantic location of Castle Leopoldskron in Salzburg to the golden edged eye makeup, everything was pure opulence at Chanel’s last Métiers d'Art Show. Not surprisingly, the clothes worn on the runway were amazing as well as the beauty look, which even this season has not gone unnoticed.
