The vanity teams backstage at Proenza Schouler Spring Summer 2012 collections created a refreshingly directional beauty image with canary yellow nails and fantastic 50’s inspired tousled up do’s.
Paul Hanlon, was the lead hairstylist for the Frédéric Fekkai team who styled the hair. “We’re doing a Fifties comb-over with an organic knot in the back,” said Hanlon, who was also inspired by dreadlocks for the look’s overall texture. For a bit of contrast, Hanlon made sure the front of the style looked wet: “There is roughness, but also femininity.”
Diane Kendal, lead makeup artist for MAC Cosmetics, was also inspired by the Fifties. “It’s a really bold, strong face,” said Kendal, who paid special attention to brows — creating square shapes with a brow brush and brow powder. On the face, Kendal used Bone Beige sculpting powder under the cheekbone and both Immortal Flow and Love Cloud blushes to create a “flush cheek.”
“This is a girl who loves fashion and loves to experiment,” said Kendal, who finished off the look with a touch of lip balm.
