Backstage Beauty at Christian Siriano Runway Spring 2010

October 1, 2009 By: Alison Blackman AdviceSisters

Christian Siriano’s Mediterranean vacation-inspired Spring 2010 runway show, hair and makeup were relatively simple, especially when compared to Siriano’s “Goldfinger” look of last season. For Spring, the look features a sleek, sophisticated, ponytail look, and nude/bronze face.

Polly Osmond for Victorias Secret Beauty, created the makeup look. She described the process of producing this nude and bronzed, beachy look in detail (getting a beachy, no-makeup look isn’t easy unless you’re a pro, or you practice at home). But basically, she started by creating flawless, creamy skin with just a hint of highlighter on the cheek bones. She added contouring and bronzer on top of this polished “canvas.” Osmond chose a soft taupe eye shadow as a lid color, with some clear gloss applied over it, and also some bronzer. She lined the inside of the eyes with a white pearl liner, finishing the look with black mascara. On the lips, Osmond added a pale lip gloss ( Christian Siriano ‘s already sold-out makeup collection for Victoria’s Secret in “Embrace”). When finished, Osmond declared the look: “very Amalphi Coast.”

Polly Osmond used makeup from Victorias Secret Beauty. If you haven’t tried their makeup yet, you will be surprised! The products truly are runway-worthy and high performance, but affordable. The makeup products from Victoria’s Secret Beauty used for Christian Sirianos show are available now, so you can re-create this look today, and be ahead of the trend.

The sleek and somewhat severe, slicked-back pony, was created by Antoinette Beenders, VP Global Director for Aveda. She said she was inspired by Siriano’s watery, ocean-inspired creations, and wanted the hair to coordinate with that look. Beenders pulled hair into a sleek ponytail and layered pin curls on top. Then, the ponytail was roughed up a bit so that there was texture — wavy and straight. She used Aveda Air Control Hair Spray and Pure Abundance Hair Spray to set the look in place. The finished look reminds me of a modern mermaid!
