Backstage for Nicole Miller in New York at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week SS2010,
Key Artist James Kaliardos, for M.A.C. Cosmetics, created a “warrior woman” look. The eyebrows were heavily emphasized by filling them in and defining the natural arc. The rest of the face was kept soft, pretty, and natural. The skin appeared luminous on the runway.
Key Hairstylist for Nicole Miller, Kevin Ryan, says volume is in for the upcoming spring 2010 season.
He created a half up, half down look—but stayed away from a bridal feel by securing the hair asymmetrically. The key product used to create the look was Aveda’s Volumizing Tonic.
Check out the backstage video, with interviews from Kevin Ryan and James Kaliardos, for Nicole Miller SS2010 produced for Beyond Beauty Basics!
