    Backstage Beauty @sheamoisture4u: Korto Momolu SS15 #MBFW

    “Rebirth, Revive, Relive,” are the three words that Korto Momolu used to describe this seasons collection just minutes before the show started. Korto a “Project Runway” All-Star, two time runner-up, and voted “fan favorite” of the Bravo/Lifetime hit show fifth season as first runner-up, debuted her 2015 Spring/Summer Collection September 8th at the Designer’s Loft at Studio 450 presented by Shea Moisture.

    Highlighted as one of the top five designers to watch by New York Magazine, Korto has been featured in Southern Living magazine, People magazine, Essence magazine, Kouture magazine, Los Angeles Times, and Washingtonian magazine.

    Backstage light pinks were being added to the cheeks and coconut oil spread through the locks of all the models for a very natural, breath of fresh air feel. Flowy prints, light fabrics, and a particularly airy feel is what this line was all about, not to mention the absolutely stunning accessories to pull together each look.

    Backstage Beauty: @Osklen Spring 2015 Show #livingAveda

    Art, nature, and human body were the underlying themes at Osklen. Inspired from an art gallery in Brazil, the line included numbers made from organic silk and straw for a very raw feeling. Also, the designer made rain forest like prints projected onto fabrics creating special designed shorts and jumpsuits. Pertruding a tropical vibe with a minimalistic sense this line made me resort ready.

    Backstage I spoke with Aveda specialists about the hair look in which they said, “it was a collaboration with creative director Oskar Metsavaht to achieve a natural angel-like look.” To do this they used Aveda Air Control Hairspray, Volumizing tonic spray, and Pure Abundance style prep serum. They polished the look with custom headbands and left out from strands to add a certain movement as the models walked down the runway.

     

    The inspiration for the makeup comes from Oskars vision of, “an elegant effortless woman crosses from the tropical forest to a city through a magical gate.” This was achieved by adding MAC Natural Radiance to the temples, chin and nose for a natural glowing look. Skin was then concealed with MAC Studio Finish concealer. On the eyes artists used, MAC Urbanist and Power Player eyeshadows. A light amount of eye gloss was ran across the brows and Secret Admirer by MAC was added to the lips.
