Tom Ford

Tom Ford SS15

Womenswear, Make-up & hair

For Spring/Summer 2015, TOM FORD creates looks that are long and lean, with a certain rock'n'roll sensuality. Ford references his own work of the 70's but updates the silhouette with a contemporary edge. Shoes are heavier, heels are higher and the new clog anchors the silhouette, creating a longer leg. The new "camera bag" is the perfect size for the woman who wants just her phone, lipstick, keys and cash. The hair and makeup of the season features a smokey eye, and slightly spiky tousled hair. Cocktail evening is inspired by Ford's collection of vintage Carlo Mollini photographs and his fascination with the tension and relationship between fashion and sensuality.

This assessment for me has been
self-reliant, self-sufficient, and I
must say its been a great experience.

Instruction:

I started with the hair first and set all the hair directional backwards.

Once the hair was finished and set, I started with make-up.

I first cleansed, toned and moisturised the face.

I then prepped the eyes for the eyeshadow by

applying M.A.C Studio Pro Conceal Palette,

a very little amount on the eyelid, and then applied Kryolan loose translucent powder to set it.

For eyeshadow I used

M.A.C Backtrack Gel Eye liner. The trick with using Gel eye liner is, once applied, you have to blend it very quickly otherwise it drys fast!

I first drew flicked eyeliner and I used that as my guideline for the eyeshadow, as my eyeshadow's shape was like a flicked eyeliner.

I then used  Black   mixed with Coco brown to give the eyeshadow a smoky effect and Naturalle  Shell to highlight just under the brows from Nye-Glam Eye Shadow palette.

I then cleaned under the eyes, to remove any traces of black eyeshadow or any other residue.

I used Kryolan D32 (to cover the dark circles) under the eyes, after I to apply M.A.C Studio Pro Concealer a very little amount on the top of D32.

For the Base I used M.A.C. Studio Fix

(Full coverage).

I set the foundation with Kryolan loose translucent powder.

For the eyebrows I used Collection EB Kit - brown mixed with a small amount of black. When applying I kind of stroked the brush upwards to give that combed, brushed effect eyebrows.

I then used clear eyebrow mascara from No7 to hold the eyebrows in the upwards position a bit like the 1970s style.

For contouring I used Make-Up ForEver sculpting kit because the pigments are fantastic, depending on how much you put on.

For blusher I used M.A.C Powder blusher Feur Powder.

For the lips I wanted something natural and simple, because I had very strong, heavy eyes, I wanted the lips to be very natural, with almost nothing on.

So, I used Autograph Nude Pink, without lip liner, and I used my index finger in a dabbing motion, mainly concentrating on the middle of the lips.

I applied La La Lashes using

Due Glue, my lashes were medium size.

Hair:

I took off the rollers and brushed the hair using my fingers, because I didn't want to lose the curls.
I then used the hair straightener for my model's French, to give her a side brushed french, very natural and wavy, again mainly using my fingers, because I find this very effective when you wanna achieve natural curls and not lose the curls.
I used a lot of hair spray to hold the hair in position.

These are some images I have taken.
I have edited all my own pictures as there were communication problems with my photographer.
I did my best to achieve a professional result, and the main magazine cover, again, I did everything myself.
