Laura Mercier’s Holiday Colour Story for 2012: The new, limited edition Art Deco Muse Collection:
The Inspiration:
For the holiday season, Laura was inspired by the decorative architecture, style and mood of the Art Deco period in Paris in the mid-1920’s, most notably the beautiful paintings of the artist Tamara de Lempicka.
The Look:
Laura created rich makeup shades of gilded golds, glamorous reds and striking blacks to beautifully contrast each other to achieve a beautifully ornamental look
Play up eyes with Illuminating Eye Colour in Gilded Moonlight, as seen on Marchesa’s Fall/Winter 2012 runway; Makeup artist Talia Shobrook used this eye colour to create glamorous gold-rimmed eyes
Golds and bronzes are paired with high-shine reds and deep blacks
Eyes are sharply designed and defined – lined in black, with gilded shimmer eye colours as a beautiful golden background
Lips wear super-shiny red lacquer
