Givenchy Autumn 09 Les Poetiques

Givenchy’s Artistic Director, Nicolas Degennes, imagined a “Romantique” mood when he created the makeup collection for Autumn 2009.

The dominant theme is vivid pink, a translucent, shimmery version that elevates the girly tone to an utterly chic and decidedly elegant effect, contrasted with shades of grey, beige and gold. A fresh, natural complexion recieves a texure contrast with uber-glossy lips and shimmery eyes. This dichotomy is also reflected in the striking packaging. Classic black cases are accented with the collection’s signature pink tone and metallic silver touches. The final result is simintounsly modern and timeless.

Get The Look: Sienna Miller at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe

Sienna Miller was wearing CHANEL Beauté makeup at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe, Thursday, August 6, Los Angeles, CA.

Here is how to get Sienna Miller’s makeup look at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe:

Makeup Artist Kate Lee: Beauty Inspiration: “Sienna was really keen to embrace the spirit of old Hollywood for the premiere of GI Joe at the Chinese Theatre. The dress was a glamorous YSL silk chiffon encrusted with beads in a kind of neutral colour. ”

Beauty Tip:”Adir Abergel and I wanted to create a look that would be classical but modern. It was Sienna’s idea to go with a strong lip. I kept the rest of the make up very neutral, gently sculpting the cheek bones with a mixture of Soleil Tan de CHANEL and CHANEL Powder Blush in Tempting Beige. The eyes were clean and simple to bring the attention to the lip. I used CHANEL Éclat Lumière in Beige Rosé all over the lid and then shaded in the sockets with CHANEL Soft Touch Eyeshadow in Sand. I spent quite a bit of time on the brows to lengthen them, and after lashings of Exceptionnel de CHANEL in Smoky-Noir, I added both individual and cut up strip lashes. The lips were a mixture of two CHANEL Rouge Allure shades, Fatale and Obscure, both launching this Fall.”
