London seemed to be having a bit of a love affair with the gloss for Fall. Christpher Kane, Jonathan Saunders, and Giles all showed various degrees of glowy skin, which I love. Erdem and David Koma had a very structured eye paired with a pale mouth. Brows were nice and full at Burberry, Aquascutum, and Mary Katrantzou. My new fave Brit designer Holly Fulton, kept the focus on the mouth with a glossy blackened plum colour. All in all London gave us a very lovely looking AW11.

Spring skin is perfectly dewy and flawless pretty much across the board. A few bright lips here and there seems to be a continuation from last spring’s trend. It wouldn’t be London without something crazy-massive amounts of glitter at Giles! So fabulous.

I have just returned from my favourite city that was celebrating twenty five years of fashion week-London was amazing! In contrast to New York, London is known for it’s edgier more hard hitting street style both on and off the runway. The make up for Spring Summer 2010 was not really about looking tan and perfect but more about creating a statement. Burberry has been revived from it’s stuffy old English history to be youthful and fresh. At Jonathan Saunders we perfected and slightly paled out the skin so the models looked almost waxy. Virtually every girl had her eyebrows bleached to non existence. Lips were toned down with concealer except the very inner part which had bright red and deep currant coloured liners applied to the mouth, very “new moon” style. What’s a London runway without colour? Marios Schwab, Luella, and Richard Nicholl had variations on colour from soft to bright. Erdem gave us long lush lashes. Now Milan is in full swing get ready for heavy doses of glamour.
