The Fashion Spot

Both are volume products – Layer Lift 07 and Rootful 06. I was told that Guido is likely to use these in some of the other shows this season that he will be working on  (which include Calvin Klein, Phi, and Philosophy by Alberta Ferretti among many others).

After speaking with Guido I spoke with NARS creative director François Nars, who for the first time in 10 years participated in New York Fashion Week by creating the look for the Marc Jacobs show - he says “Because Marc inspired me, only for Marc.”

As for the makeup, it was as awe-inspiringly detailed as the hair. Nars described it as “quiet eclectic. Marc wanted to bring out the character in each girl, but he wanted it to look like the models would go from the runway to a nightclub.” He continued by saying that the makeup was tailored to each model and what, specifically, looks good on her, adding that the most important was for them to “have fun and look wild. It’s about combining colors without caring about constancy, but still having the colors coordinate with the outfits.”

Guido and François Nars both stressed that these were “extreme looks,” inspired in part by Debbie Harry, the 80’s nightclub scene, and of course Stephen Sprouse.
