DIOR 'Glowing Gardens' Spring 2016 Makeup Collection:

This spring, Peter Philips, Creative and Image Director for Dior Makeup, reinterprets the art of a gorgeous glow with a luminous makeup collection that teams new Backstage Pros essentials with eyeshadows and lipsticks in colours inspired by the flower gardens of Granville.

Fresh and pure is the look composed by Peter Philips for spring. This season, Philips sought to turn the focus on “glow”, the Dior-specific art of revealing natural beauty through a radiant complexion. Textures are light and delicately iridescent, creating a makeup that's fresh, natural and incandescent. To define the look, Peter Philips developed spring nuances, recalling the floral language dear to Christian Dior, that act as a showcase for the House’s color expertise. Both vibrant and light, shades of pink, peony red, soft green and pastel yellow allude to a garden bursting into bloom under a May sky.

Paris Haute Couture | VALENTINO Spring 2016 Couture

Speaking to Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli is always like hearing an Italian art history lesson in stereo. In one ear, she is talking about Mariano Fortuny, his Delphos dress, and “aged” velvet, and in the other, he’s speaking about Isadora Duncan and Loie Fuller and their “expressionist dancing.” All of this exotic early-20th-century Venetian-pagan romanticism was sewn lightly into the Valentino Haute Couture collection and trailed around by barefoot nymphs with gold metal serpents writhing in their tendriled tresses.

Paris Haute Couture | CHANEL Spring 2016 Couture:

A ray of sunlight pierces the Parisian skies on a cloudy January 26th, and illuminates the dome of the Grand Palais. Like a reminder of spring in the middle of winter, it signals the start of Karl Lagerfeld’s Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016 collection show. In an exaltingly bucolic set, a wooden house with closed shutters blends in with the vegetation. The door opens to reveal the first silhouettes. One by one, seeming to slow their pace to better take advantage of the moment, the models wander through this Eden.
