Backstage Beauty: Kevyn Aucoin For Clover Canyon
Clover Canyon, Fall 2013.
Kevyn Aucoin lead artist Deanna Melluso describes the makeup for Clover Canyon‘s NYFW Fall 2013 show as a “Russian ballerina, ice princess.” Inspired by the Ballet Russe, Clover Canyon brought the nation’s opulence to life through graphic constructivism, crown jewels and glittering ballet slippers. Below Melluso shares the products used to accentuate the prints encapsulating in the collection.
