We still have Paris to go, but it’s safe to say that so far, there has been a lot of pared down beauty this season. When makeup artists do drag the colour out, it seems a strong lip is in favour. As Milan Fashion Week Fall 2013 winds down, here are three of our favourite bold mouths from that city.
Blurry vision at Marni: Tom Pecheux layered two creamy red pigments and a rich berry lipstick on mouths, before using a Q-Tip dipping in setting powder to diffuse the outline of the lip.
Matte exercise at Bottega Veneta: According to Pat McGrath, Tomas Maier knew exactly what he wanted the beauty look to be for the Fall 2013 showing of Bottega Veneta: very matte lips. Inspired by some fabric swatches the designer sent McGrath ahead of time, burnt orange was the shade they settled on.
Classic beauty at Dolce & Gabbana: A picture of super muse Sophia Loren picture was spotted backstage at Dolce and Gabbana. For Pat McGrath, that inspiration manifested into a perfectly drawn scarlet lip that referenced the heavy helping of the shade featured throughout the collection.
Standards of beauty have changed over time, based on changing cultural values. Historically, paintings show a wide range of different standards for beauty. However, humans who are relatively young, with smooth skin, well-proportioned bodies, and regular features, have traditionally been considered the most beautiful throughout history.
In eastern Indonesia there has been a transformation in the production and use of the traditional textiles as the production, use and value associated to textiles changes due to modernization. In the past women produced the textiles for either consuming the textiles by themselves and their families or to trade with others. Today this has changed as most textiles are not being produced at home. Because of colonialism in the past by the Dutch, western goods are considered modern and valued more than traditional goods. Because of this western clothing is valued more than the traditional sarong. Sarongs are now used only for rituals and ceremonial occasions; whereas, western clothes are worn to church or visiting a government office.
Enticing consumers to buy clothing by establishing new trends is, some have argued, a key component of the industry's success. Intellectual property rules that interfere with the process of trend-making would, in this view, be counter-productive. On the other hand, it is often argued that the blatant theft of new ideas, unique designs, and design details by larger companies is what often contributes to the failure of many smaller or independent design companies.
