Redken Creative Consultant Guido created a tough, strong rocker-like look to pair with the dark, chic, and ultra-modern Spring/Summer 2012 Lanvin collection today. “I wanted to give the hair a wet, tough, street-ish look. It’s a nice juxtaposition with the sexy, bejeweled and glamorous clothing. The hair is overly shiny with a lot of control to give a tough look that’s very sexy but nonchalant at the same time.”–Guido, Redken Creative Consultant

A ponytail was the style at Lanvin during Paris Fashion Week, February 2011-it included a braid. “We wanted to create a very natural look for the collection this season. Sometimes keeping the hair simple and natural makes more of a statement on the runway.” –Guido, Redken Creative Consultant

Redken Product & how to:

wool shake 08 gel-slush texturizer

Create the look:

- Apply wool shake 08 gel-slush texturizer to dry hair for texture

- Create a center part with your fingers

- Pull hair back and create a braid beginning at the nape of the neck and secure with a clear elastic

- Pull a few pieces out around the face so the braid looks natural and not too polished

Julianne Moore looked radiant last night on the red carpet of the 2011 Golden Globe Awards in a dazzling pink, Lanvin dress. Nominated for Best Actress in The Kids Are All Right, her co-star Annette Benning took home the prize for the same film. Moore’s flawless makeup was created by Pati Dubroff, Clarins Celebrity Beauty Artist. A fuchsia dress on a red head can be difficult to match makeup to, but Dubroff chose to stay within the pink family creating contrasting hues on the eye lids (soft pink) and deep, rich blackberry on the lips.

Skin:

Dubroff started with Clarins Instant Smooth Line Correcting Concentrate to fill any fine lines on the skin and create an even canvas. She then applied the Instant Light Complexion Perfector in Rose Shimmer along her cheekbones for glowing skin that did not cover her freckles. Next, she swept a small amount of Blush Prodige in Miami Pink on the apples of her cheeks.

Eyes:

Clarins Instant Light Eye Perfecting Base was the foundation of the soft eye look, which not only helps pigment last all night but makes the color richer on the skin tone. Next, she used the pale pink eye shadow from Clarins new Neo Pastels Eye Palette and sculpted the eye using a matte taupe shade from the Pro Palette Eye Brow Kit. Competing the look was many coats of Wonder Perfect Mascara in Black.

Lips:

Berry stained lips, that looked like she just sipped a glass of wine were achieved without liner, but by dabbing on Clarins Rouge Prodige in Blackberry with the fingers.

LANVIN hearts H&M hits stores THIS SATURDAY, November 20th, 2010! Excitement level here at the Marta Walsh headquarters is high LOL.

A COLLECTION FULL OF MODERN AND PLAYFUL CLASSICS

When Lanvin’s exclusive collection for H&M arrives in store on November 23, the absolute essence of Lanvin will be available in around 200 stores worldwide. With separate collections of womenswear and menswear, Alber Elbaz, artistic director of Lanvin, has created clothing of extraordinary ambition for H&M, bringing the codes of the house to make every single piece identifiably the work of Lanvin. For women there are dresses of breathtaking cut and joyful colour, as well as pieces full of Parisian glamour and accessories with playful joie de vivre. For men, it’s a whole new wardrobe of covetable updated classics, with tuxedos made for daywear and jogging pants adding a whole new sporting twist.

“What does luxury mean today? Can luxury be exclusive and democratic at the same time? How can we translate the essence of luxury to a wider audience? The world around us is changing rapidly and I find myself asking these questions more and more. Designer’s work is usually tailored to a very small group of people, but the collection for H&M was about trying to translate the dream of luxury to the masses. It was almost like going back to school for me.” Alber Elbaz, artistic director of Lanvin.

“Alber Elbaz is so extremely skilled; it’s so rare to work with someone who is so attentive and involved in everything. He is creating and styling all the time, it’s like this never-ending imagination. Elbaz is quite unconventional in the way he tries to find new solutions and he fights for his own vision. I admire him, he’s a real artist.” Margareta van den Bosch, creative advisor at H&M.

LANVIN Hearts H&M Price List:

Paris Fashion Week SS 2011. Designer: Lanvin. Hair by Guido for Redken. The Hairstyle & Inspiration: At Lanvin, the look was a wet low ponytail, inspired by a girl who just finished scuba diving and pulled her hair back into a ponytail.

Photos by Matt Lever for Redken

“This look is quite different from last season’s look- there are a few sporty pieces in the collection so we wanted to play on that and created a wet, low ponytail as if a girl just finished scuba diving or a swim. This is something most women have actually worn- rushing out of the shower to work and putting hair, wet, into a low ponytail.” –Guido, Redken Creative Consultant

Redken products & how to:

hardwear 16 super strong gel

vinyl glam 02 mega shine spray

Create the look:

- With a water spray bottle, dampen the hair until it’s wet all the way through

- From roots to end, apply hardwear 16 super strong gel and run it through with fingers

- Pull hair away from the face (with no part) into a low ponytail at the nape of the neck

- Comb with fingers and finish with a few spritzes of vinyl glam 02 mega shine spray.

H&M has confirmed that its next designer collaboration will be with Lanvin!! WATCH!
