NYFW FALL 2013: It’s All in the Details, Part I

by Julia DiNardo

I love fashion from an overview perspective of taking in an entire look in one fell swoop from the runway ‘sidelines,’ but more than that, I love being able to scrutinize and admire details up close to truly appreciate the artistry and design.  I’m hoping you feel the same way too, and via my super duper lens on my camera, I was able to capture some great close-ups at runway shows and presentations. I’ve featured some commentary with each image; enjoy!

Amazing, luxe texture and saturated color in this fur vest, as well as in the lipstick and tinted hair at Carmen Marc Valvo

Jenny Packham proves that she can impart defined elegance to every day dressing, while dazzle with a high dose of sparkle for evening.

Packham again shows off her deft skill at the arranging of crystals and jewelry on garments; plus, I loved the simplicity of the tied bow in the hair (created by Jeannie Syfu of TRESemmé)

A favorite every season is always Mara Hoffman; great cuts and amazingly engineered prints, like the ‘cheetah skin’  pictured above, and in movement on the runway, below.

A close up while backstage of the amazing jewelry by Pamela Love found on the runway at Mara Hoffman, which perfectly fell in waves over the tousled tresses.

In Rafael Cennamo’s collection, everything was gold and incredibly ornate — close ups of the details do it justice, which had a slight 20’s vibe

 Cennamo was inspired by the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles in creating this collection

The symmetry and colors of this Rafael Cennamo collection are a mastery of precision and cut.

Continuing with some heavy metal, gold pieces, the bracelets and hardware on this clutch at Monika Chiang are to die for!

A balance of the delicate and soft with the luxe, and warm –red-tinged fur  allowed the caviar-like beading and embroidery details to peer out from this sheer dress, a big trend for fall 2013

Carmen Marc Valvo Fall 2011 Backstage Beauty

by Julia DiNardo

Carmen Marc Valvo‘s inspiration for hair and makeup at his F/W 2011 show was a ballerina just after a day of rehearsal.  The designer teamed up with Ted Gibson Salon’s Devin Toth for a casual take on a pulled back look that is designed to move.  The makeup team, lead by Romero Jennings for MAC Cosmetics, gave the models a fresh, wide-eyed look with a pop of blush on the cheek.

To get the look:
Hair Products/Tools: Ted Gibson‘s hair sheet, build it blow-dry spray, beautiful hold hairspray, blow dryer, round brush, 1 inch curling iron
How to: Start with TG’s hair sheet to tame fly aways and eliminate static.  Use the blow-dry spray for volume and movement before blowdrying hair using round brush to give volume to the root.  Pull back a half-ponytail section of hair, twist close to scalp and pin to secure.  Curl bottoms for extra bounce and movement.  *Tip* Low on time? Devin says a securing hair in a top knot before bed will give the hair similar movement for those of us rushing out the door in the morning!

Makeup Products/Tools: Mac cream colour base, fascinating eye kohl, cremesheen lip glass, Mac 219 pencil brush, brownish taupe eye shadow
How to: Start with a good, dewy foundation and powder where needed.  For the eyes, dust the browningh taupe shade over the lid with a fluffy eye shadow brush and take the color under the eye using a pencil brush like the Mac 219.  Use the Fascinating eye kohl (white eye liner) on the bottom rim of the eye for a wide-eyed effect and apply mascara only to the top lashes to emphasize the look.  Use your fingers to tap a pinky/peach blush onto the apples of your cheeks and finish off by tapping excess cream blush onto the lips and topping with Mac cremesheen lip glass.
