See all the MBFWA 2017 backstage reports here.

Who: Bianca Spender
When: 11:00am, May 15, Theatre

Hair: Koh for O&M
Hair look:
"The inspiration for the hair is the model themselves – like, ‘who is this girl?’ The hair products used are also tailored to each model; and we use different products because we want the girl to look like who she is. For example, one model may have really thick hair so we’re using products that make the hair calm but still her. Another model may have really fine hair so we’ll use a sea salt spray to give it lift and texture.”

Makeup: Carol Mackie for MAC
Makeup look:
“It has a little bit of a Sarah Moon feel to it, but it’s quite melancholy. We’re using very sheer, transparent washes of colour, but we’re setting it with a powder that’s a similar colour – so even though it’s sheer, it’s still matte. On the skin we’re using a little bit of face and body foundation; and to highlight we’re using a combination of strobe cream in peach, cream colour bases in pearl and lunar and a little bit of oil. It’s all very believable skin, looking like the model’s real skin and you can’t see the makeup. In terms of eye colour, some of the models have product and some of them don’t, and some of the models have eye colour and some of them don’t. It’s all tailored to them so the shapes are different too; it’s all about looking at the model and making it feel like she’s a real woman.
