The Show: Rebecca Minkoff for Spring 2013
The Theme: Inspired by 60s and 70s photographs by Slim Aarons
The Color Palette: vibrant reds, indigo, corals, creams, dove grey, and mint.
Best/Collection’s Signature Standout Look: All of the handbags and footwear are certainly must-haves, but the most striking were the white slightly belled denim with blue or red embroidery paneling down the entire sides (see below).
Backstage Beauty for Rebecca Minkoff Spring 2013
The Theme: That beautiful, hip Rebecca Minkoff girl
The Keys: TRESemmé Lead Stylist Jeanie Syfu, Sarah Lucero for Stila Cosmetics, Haven for Essie.
The Color Palette: Turquoise, mint, bronzed, natural glow. A small wedge of mint on the eyes to match the nails, blush and bronzer for a natural glow, well defined eyebrows, a different take on beachy hair texture.
The Execution: Lots of mascara on top, a matte lip, well-brushed eyebrows. The hair went both shiny and matte by Jeanie Syfu of TRESemmé, a “casual but natural look with a messy middle part,” Syfu explained.
How-To Steps: Get the hair —
- Start by applying TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Finishing Spray and TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse throughout the hair and power dry with fingers for texture
- Smooth out ends with a Mason Pearson brush
- Take random sections of hair and using a 1” barrel curling iron, create curls through the mid-lengths, making sure to leave the ends out
- Use the flat iron to straighten ends and give the beachy texture a polished finish
- Spray lightly with TRESemmé Fresh Start Volumizing Dry Shampoo for a matte look
- Create a middle part with a comb and finish with a dime size amount of TRESemmé Smooth & Silky Anti-Frizz Secret Crème to fingertips, raking through the hair from roots to ends
