John Galliano Fall/Winter Collection 2009.John Galliano (CBE, RDI) is a Gibraltar-born British fashion designer of French fashion companies Givenchy (1995-1996), Christian Dior (1996-2011) and his own label John Galliano (1988-2011), at present he is the creative director of Paris-based fashion house Maison Margiela. Galliano has been named British Designer of the Year four times and in a 2004 poll for the BBC he was named the fifth most influential person in British culture. The Fall/Winter collection had a frozen Russian Balkan folklore vibe to it. On the catwalk there was a micro-bubble snowstorm and a trick of laser lighting which created a magical illusion. The models appeared as if they were walking in a fairy tale tunnel. It was very clear that there had been a lot of research into folk costumes because of how detailed the fashion was. The looks for Galliano’s Fall/Winter collection 2009 was created by makeup artist Pat McGrath, the looks were intended to look like frozen Russian brides who had been walking in the snow for hours. The makeups she created for the collection ranged from silver-grey tones to lots of frosty tones with strong, thin brows. Eyeshadow colours varied from lavenders, baby blues, silvers and greens. Gold was placed under the eyes in order to create a frozen tears look. The mouth had an ethereal look, this was created by only applying colour to the centre of the lips. Lady Gaga was inspired for her ‘Applause’ music video by John Galliano and Pat McGrath’s Russian brides. My Galliano Fall/Winter 2009 Look.I absolutley love this look. Galliano's Fall/Winter collection 2009 has inspired me on many occasion, it's so vampy and dark but also ethereal and soft at the same time. For this look I created, I used purple shades to make it a darker, gothy version. I used white face paint to create the white lashes (love, love, love white lashes). For a touch of vintage I added thin brows and kiss curls.

AuthorThis blog is to follow on from my university final project, which was a historical reference book on ‘Female Hair and Makeup Throughout History’. Each week I will release a post featuring an era and an aspect of hair, makeup and fashion from the time. I will also have my makeup muse of the week, who could be a makeup or fashion trendsetter of their time or a makeup artist who has innovated the industry. Archives
