House of Waris Fall 2011 Runway Show
NARS created the look for the first ever House of Waris presentation showcasing the brand’s inaugural collection of scarves for Fall 2011 runway show.
SHOW: House of Waris. LEAD ARTIST: James Boehmer, NARS International Makeup Artist. MAKEUP TREND: Lined eyes with a hint of color, complemented by sun-kissed skin.
INSPIRATION: “I was inspired by the things that surround me in my everyday life,” said jewelry designer Waris Ahluwahlia. “Some of the scarves have the ‘Waris’ signature print; others have a palm print. But it was really important that they all accommodate a sense of ‘adornment’…just like jewelry.”
LOOK: “The girls are very St. Tropez – bronze and sun-kissed,” said lead artist James Boehmer. “The effect of the liner on their eyes gives them a Charlotte Rampling vibe – it’s done, but it’s not done completely. It’s messy, but in a care-free beautiful way. Some girls have color on their eyes, depending on the scarves they are wearing, and the lips have a tint of color.”
