SOPHIA WEBSTER'S SLUMBER PARTY

For her  spring presentation, hosted at the Secret Garden in the Topshop Show Space on Sunday, Sophia Webster envisioned an “insect slumber party.” Seussian-styled models draped themselves across flower beds as they showed off heels festooned with ladybugs and polka dots. Laser-cut gladiator boots revealed a fantastical butterfly motif, while the designer’s new bags showcased phrases like, “High Flyer” and “You Buggin’.” 

 
 
"I was looking at butterflies and different designs in butterfly wings, and I looked at insects like ladybugs and bees. I’ve always liked paper cuts and stripes, so just by looking into that, I had the idea to do an insect slumber party. We did garden furniture and flower beds, and [the models are] actually sleeping in the beds".  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


BACKSTAGE BEAUTY

At London Fashion Week, Antonio Berardi called upon the considerable talents of the Revlon team to create a beauty look for his catwalk show for the fifth season running. Led by Global Artistic Director Gucci Westman, the makeup team created a grown-up look with a focus on bold, matte red lips. Base was flawless, cheeks given only a gentle wash of color, eyes had a little mauve shadow, a lick of mascara, and a tiny bit of blue liner on the tear line, leaving those lips to really do the talking.  



Jenny Longworthy complemented this with glossy red nails using the classic Revlon Red Nail Enamel.
