    Nail Trends with Sally Hansen x DKNY

    Sally Hansen is excited to be the exclusive nail partner for DKNY and to create the nail looks for the Fall 2016 fashion show during New York Fashion Week. “We wanted a playful look that mixes it up with a graphic design and tones from the 90’s,” explained Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne, DKNY Creative Directors.

     

    THE INSPIRATION

    “When I think of DKNY, I think of the cool inspiration of the 90’s, the color palette of black, gray, white, neutrals, and strong graphic shapes. I knew the nails needed to feel equally sharp. The girls each have their own personality, a variety of hair styles and thus, a variety of nail styles as well. Using two colors, Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Dark Hue-mor, a deep navy and Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Commander in Chic, a muddy gray-purple, we created four different nail looks which will be randomly applied to the girls backstage. Every girl will have a unique combination of flare.” – Madeline Poole, Sally Hansen Global Color Ambassador

Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure delivers seven salon manicure steps in one bottle. Chip-resistant strength joins gel-quality shine. Runway-ready color meets nourishing benefits. Plus, with a built-in base and top coat, it’s all you need to achieve a professional manicure at home.

    There was a very special party at Ace Hotel for an iconic running and fashion brand… Brooks!  Extremely iconic for us 80’s babies – Brooks unveils its heritage footwear collection in celebration of the brand’s 100th Anniversary.  The entire Liberty Hall was decked out in theme with amazing snacks, Vanguard and Vantage inspired cocktails and a really cool surprise.

    The Vanguard (with the Octopi outsole) and the Vantage shoe were displayed in various color ways on floating displays or clear acrylic. Fashion bloggers were able to take pictures and check out the shoes from every angle without touching the displays. The bar, in front of a wall of colorful laces, offered beers and cocktails for us thirsty bloggers all night long.

    The Vanguard is so 70’s! It has clean design lines, rich aesthetics, classic iconic T-toe. It features a pigskin upper, pebbled Chevron and heel tab for opulence.  Can’t wait to wear my Vanguards this spring!
