Marc Jacobs Beauty has presented a limited-edition makeup collection, directly inspired by the brand’s spring 2017 New York fashion show, held back in September. The collection promises runway-inspired beauty looks for the spring 2017 season.
This very limited edition collection comprises three essentials from Marc Jacobs’ permanent collection in shades directly inspired by the label’s colourful spring 2017 collection. In September, Marc Jacobs sent models down the New York runway sporting dreadlocks, wearing girly outfits and strutting in eight-inch platforms decorated with patterns created by British illustrator Julie Verhoeven. The collection was in part influenced by Tokyo youth culture.
Strong colour with a romantic twist
The three essentials in this collection are all for eyes, which get intense shades with metallic effects — particularly in blue — for spring 2017. Eyes are bright, dazzling, romantic and almost bewitching.
The collection, called the Velvet Reality Eye Collection, takes the form of a kit that can easily be slipped into a handbag or travel case. It features Twinkle Pop Stick Eyeshadow in “On The Verge”, a bold icy grape shade, Highliner Gel Eye Crayon in “(Th)ink”, a navy blue, and the iconic Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara.
The three makeup must-haves come in a pouch designed by the illustrator Julie Verhoeven, who worked with Marc Jacobs on the spring 2017 ready-to-wear collection.
