Current Trends in Hair & Make-Up: Alberta Ferretti SS15 Milan Fashion Week

Milan Fashion Week- SS15

Looking at the photos of Alberta Ferretti's SS15 collection feels like opening the gates to the Garden of Eden and experiencing what lies behind them. Alberta Ferretti captured elements of romance and nature.
It was all about fringing and flowers. The main elements of this collection were: bohemian, ethereal nude and blush chiffon pieces with long, floor-sweeping hemlines. The models floated down the runway so effortlessly.
There were also a hint of Native American vibe, thanks to fringe detailing and garments made from soft tan leather, accompanied by hippie style sandals.

What I loved about this collection was that the pieces looked so romantic and that I could wear every single piece of the collection for any summer day or night.

This super feminine message was definitely the central focus of the show:

"Through this collection, I wanted to express a sense of freedom possessed by women who think for themselves..."- Alberta Ferretti

Hair: Guido

Undone, festival waves that are simple yet elegant and fresh. This sort of effortless, tousled look became a symbol of the modern, chic girl.
To achieve this texture, Redken Creative Consultant Guido used Redken's Fashion Waves 07 Texturising Sea Salt Spray and curling iron to create the perfect combination of a natural, undone texture and feminine waves.

"At this moment in time, easy hair feels the most modern, and that's the overall feeling we get with this hairstyle," says Guido. "The Alberta Ferretti girl is kind of a hippie, but still very feminine and soft, so I left the hair a bit natural, with some nice chunky texture and loose curls. I sprayed Fashion Waves 07 throughout the hair, and then used two different sized curling irons to add more movement. Then I applied more Fashion Waves 07 to pull out the curls a bit, creating that nice matte texture."

Make-Up:

Beautiful, natural, glowing skin- no heavy foundation or powder- was definitely one of the key elements of the make-up look for this show. The other was the warm peach toned eyeshadow and blusher. Eyes were contoured with a soft peach shadow and a fine line of black eyeliner was applied to the upper lash line, but only to the roots of the lashes to intensify the eyes. Only a light coat of mascara was applied to the lashes to keep it nice and simple. Nothing too crazy.

The make-up artists kept the lips very natural by gently pushing peach toned lip balm over the lips for a soft finish. Eyebrows were also kept very natural, soft and feminine.

"The right shade of peach adds instant life and youth without draining the complexion like some pinks can"- says make-up artist Terry Barber. "When pinks have a lot of blue in them, the contrast with pale skin can be too much, making peach a more flattering, blowy option for cold-weather skin."
