Sneak Peek: NARS Fall 2010
It looks like we’ll be seeing heiress Daphne Guinness in NARS’ fall campaign. The full collection will debut on narscosmetics.com on July 15th before arriving at other retailers in August.
The eye shadow shade named for Guinness is a rich, royal purple. “When I started thinking about colors that meant Daphne to me, purple felt right — and when I tried it on her at the shoot, I immediately knew it needed to be named for her,” said Nars. Guinness wears it in the campaign along with Mangrove, a new eye shadow in an yellow-green hue; Douceur blush, a soft pink-brown, and Rouge Basque Lipstick, a “quintessential red” inspired by the French Basque region. The eye shadows will each retail for $23, the lipstick for $24 and the blush for $26. “Daphne’s like a painting in this image,” said Nars, who used a set of mirrors to reflect Guinness’ image from every angle. “Since Daphne was the inspiration for the campaign, I thought, ‘Why not have more of her?’” — WWD
WWD also noted that in November, Nars is planning to open up a freestanding store as well as working on two books–perhaps released next year, if we’re lucky.
That promo image is dragtastic. FIERCE *snap*
As a Nars addict, I will b buying all of the products. Yes Enchanted blush was huge disappointment. Glitter mess!
Yay - a new blush!! Do you know if it will be matte? I hope so.
Wow Daphne Guinness just looks amazing. I wish I can age gracefully like she does. Well, she does have an amazing life! Anyway, I'm hoping the new blush wouldn't be much of a disappointment like the Enchanted blush that they released last season..
The blush sounds ideal, but the part that got me really excited as the Basque lipstick, especially considering that I'm half Basque and most people barely even know my people exist. :D So SO glad we'll be seeing more pics soon. WOO!
WOW i am so excited the purle eyeshadow looks like it may be even better than MUFE #92....a must have in my book!!!
i love her eyes!!!
Collection sounds nice. Horrid model.
just as a point of interest, i think that corset is made by an Irish designer. there was an article about her in the paper recently. Lady Gaga saw her designs and wanted one but she was so broke (only starting out as a designer) that she could barely afford to buy the materials to make one! (they are really expensive as they are strips of leather!) Love all nars collections so i'll definitely be trying these out.
Is Nars Zulu nail polish coming out with this collection ?
Whatever details are here are all I know for now.
I am a sucker for purple, can't wait to try Guinness
I'm looking forward to the "Guinness" eyeshadow and "Rouge Basque" lipstick (I swear I will have a dozen red lipsticks by the end of the fall!). The "Douceur" blush isn't appealing to me but we shall see.
That is a beautiful image!
I just love the photo. I think it's fantastic. :)
so looking forward to that blush!!
Yay! I love Nars products. Definitely will be looking into that blush.
Yup, I'm gonna need that blush~!
