Graffiti Makeup Artistry LFW

   I've become very enthralled with all the makeup with the fashion weeks breezing right by us. What had caught my eye are the splashes of color.  I was reading all about the graffiti street art aspects of the runway looks. Wonder if Banksy would kidnap a model and paint her. Then plop her down in the middle of London. Would people say wow that's a Banksy snapping pictures with there cell phone cameras at a feverish rate? Would they just walk by her saying "Looks like some model lost her way home last night.”. Vivienne Westwood Red Label has to be my favorite look of London Fashion Week each models look was different. What I love the smooth spray paint like shimmer on the face. Accented with a messy bloody lip with hues of red & pink to give it depth. Then the stunning use of texture such as gold leaf on one model that was indeed beautiful. I’ve found myself very inspired by this so you know what that means. More makeup looks on the way.

   So there you have it a look into the crème de la crème in makeup. What interesting is watching these outrageous runways looks taper down to the public. There is some mad scientist chemist mixing up pallets of color based on looks such as this. What runway shows did you like from London Fashion Week ?

  1. The makeup in a fashion show should look over the top (if not a bit nuts) it's drama and entertainment. Love this!
