Rodarte Spring 2012 X NARS

NARS created the look for the Rodarte runway show. LEAD ARTIST: James Kaliardos for NARS Cosmetics . TREND: Navy-blue, smokey eye and lavender lips.

DESIGNER INSPIRATION: “For Spring / Summer 2012, we were inspired by Van Gogh’s brushwork within his paintings, said Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte.

LOOK: “It’s a really beautiful, round, smoky eye with gradations of blue,” said lead artist James Kaliardos for NARS Cosmetics “It’s like ‘Starry Night’ and then there’s this beautiful lavender lip, complemented by warm skin.”
