SHOW: Thakoon
LEAD ARTIST: Diane Kendal for NARS Cosmetics
TREND: Luminous skin and contoured cheeks
INSPIRATION: The inspiration behind the collection came from the idea of “samurai-meets-surfer.” The collection consisted of so many sharp edges and aqua-blues that designer Thakoon wanted the girls to look like warriors so that they could really wear and carry the strong clothing. With such bright colors, the goal was to keep the face a bit more monotone overall but still to impart strength around the eyes and cheekbones
LOOK: A very strong and luminous face is the key to getting this look right. “………….tktktktk………” explained lead artist Diane Kendal. She used a minimal amount of makeup everywhere else but contoured the cheeks and kept the eye deeply set to convey an image of power through minimalism.
Below are some key products and steps for recreating the look:
