Paris Fashion Week: Chanel, to the rhythm of Swinging London
The rhythm is that of rock & roll, the spirit that of Swinging London, the style that of the Sixties but in a Scottish key. Above super soft tweed jackets, a fabric loved by Coco Chanel from her trip to Scotland in the 1920s in the company of the Duke of Westminster from whose wardrobe she drew enormous inspiration, the hair is natural.
It is the spirit of the “good” teenagers of the Sixties, when the sweater was worn with the perfectly brushed loose hair, voluminous to the right point, usually just below the shoulders and left natural. No lacquers or gels, therefore, just a little clip that emphasizes the side parting and the tuft-fringe covering the entire forehead.
Alternatively? Twiggy boyish cuts and yokes that emerged directly from the 1920s re-proposed by Mary Quant.
Chanel Makeup: Slightly pink lips and natural bases for days in Scotland
As per tradition, the make-up of a “good” girl is simple and imperceptible. Lucia Pica, Creative Make up and Color Designer of the maison, has created a very light basevery natural, on which pink cheeks stand out. It is the effect of the days spent outdoors as Coco did when she got lost in the Scottish lands.
The extra touch? A shy pink touch on the lipsthe typical color of adolescence, flecked for a very natural effect and which illuminates the whole make-up look.
