The Show: Carlos Miele
The Theme: “A Hallucinatory Jungle,” prompted by Carlos Miele’s two-year old son’s drawings of a blue giraffe.
The Execution:
Hair by Rodney Cutler for the SALON at ULTA Beauty – A simple, understated sleek look was made to float and bounce down the runway. Miele’s line was full of textural clothing with lots of chiffon and fringe. Thus, hair took the opposite route. Cutler experimented with textured looks before deciding on the “chic” straight hairstyle that would compliment the animal print-themed looks of Miele’s collection.
Get the look by layering Redken Iron Silk 07 Ultra Straightening Spray throughout sections of the hair and blowing hair out straight until completely dry; (A round brush is recommended.) Next, flat iron small sections of the hair. Spray Redken Fashion Work 12 to keep the hair sleek and straight. Once hair has settled, use Redken Shine Flash 02 for a finished, yet natural look.
Makeup by Gato for Maybelline New York – Carlos Miele’s summer girl is meant to be beachy by day and glamorous by night. She effortlessly meanders between the two with gorgeous, glowing bronzed skin and an iconic red lip.
Begin your look with foundation. Next, dust bronzer on the cheekbones and from the forehead down to the temples. Use a highlighter on the forehead, chin, cheeks and between the brow for that tiny extra glow. Dot Maybelline’s Dream Bouncy Blush on the apples of the cheeks using your fingers. Swipe Color Tatoo 24 Hour Bad to the Bronze on lids; an extremely subtle layer does the trick. Mega Plus Mascara will give lashes full, yet soft movement. Finally, create that iconic red lip with #645 Red Revival, a shade, “suitable for all women,” as Gato described.
