Who: Raffles International Showcase 2019
When: 3:00pm, May 16, Carriageworks
Hair: Dmitri Papas for Redken
Hair look:
"We've created three looks for the seven Raffles designers. For the first we created a top knot which will be the edgier of the three styles. We've prepped the hair with Redken Triple Take 32, then did a directional blow dry and the knotted the bun with a standard rubber band. We then lifted the hair again and put another rubber band on top – it's meant to look like the girls have done it themselves. We'll finish the look with a wet gel to make it seem like they've sweated a bit. The second look is a romantic feminine style. We wanted something whimsical and fluffier so we parted the hair down the middle and used hot tongs to create a bit of a bend before creating a low pony that looks like its dropping out. We prepped the hair with Redken Fashion Waves for that. For the guys we've simply sprayed a bit of Redken Fashion Works to give a bit of a wet, sticky feel."
Makeup: Chris Arai for UTOWA
Makeup look:
"UTOWA is a Japanese brand, still relatively new here in Australia. We've created two looks with them today, one is very floaty and feminine and one is very Street. The second, quirky look is all about the lips which are bright, colourful, poppy and a lot of fun! For the feminine look we've gone for quite an intense red, almost a maroon tone around and on the eyes because this is quite a Japanese colour. The skin is lightly dewy, we want the freckles to come through on the girls, and there will be no Kim Kardashian contouring!"
