What designer would you like to see collaborate with MAC? What kind of collaboration do you see happening? What might it look like?

Love this question! My personal style is way less girly/sexy/pink than, say, Barbie, Fafi and especially Heatherette. I was psyched for the McQueen collection, but it was pretty narrow in terms of colors and products available.
I guess I’d say Comme des Garcons/Junya Watanabe or Duro Olowu. Olowu’s clothes have amazing colors and prints, but are also elegant. Ah, I aspire to look that good…off-beat and eccentric, but also very pulled-together.
I’d love to see a collection that featured more creamy (yay paint pots) and multi-use products. CCBs are awesome and it seems MAC never makes special CCB colors! It’s time! Also, no glitter allowed! :D

Those are all designers I haven’t heard of to be honest (I feel so dumb admitting it!), but I think the lines sound great!

i would love hello kitty boxes for mac for a girly collaboration
for a designer marc jacobs :)
Friday, February 15, 2008
Ha, Hello Kitty boxes! I used to have one of those for pencils way back when!

I’d love a Juicy Couture collection!!!! I know Heatherette is pretty girly and fun but we arent getting that in the UK and I am gutted LOL

Oh, that would be really interesting!
You aren’t? I thought it was going to be in at least one location :( That sucks!

for mac, maybe betsey johnson or gwen stefani’s lamb collection. a bit of funky and classy.
Friday, February 15, 2008
I’d love Betsey Johnson collection!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
omg i had a great idea last night HELLO KITTY for mac would be amazing. and I love Gwen Stefani so maybe Harajuku Lovers or L.A.M.B.
Friday, February 15, 2008
Great suggestions, Gracee!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
The first that came to my mind is McQueen, but they already did, and was not that *wow*. Maybe JPG or some other funky brands.
Friday, February 15, 2008
lol! Yeah, it was kind of a small line, and I wished it was more than it was.

Vivienne Westwood – anyone who visits Buckingham Palace to collect an award while wearing silver horns should be able to come up with something pretty interesting for MAC ;)
Seriously though, I love her use of things old and new to come up with some brilliant designs. Her use of color and texture is amazing.
Friday, February 15, 2008
Ohh, that would be very interesting to see! If only!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
I think Betsey Johnson would be great! Lots of bold black/shimmer/gold/red…
Marc Jacobs could be a really classy line…
Friday, February 15, 2008
I totally agree with the Betsey Johnson line!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
I think that if there were another girly/cutesy collaboration Tokidoki would make for some really cute limited packaging…
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Erin, did you get a chance to check out the Tokidoki/Smashbox collaboration last spring? :D
Friday, February 15, 2008
Hey Erin! I wonder how MAC would do Tokidoki vs. Smashbox.
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Versace, i love their prints on their products like the scarfs, their graphcis or prints on versace furniture!! wow i think the MAC packaging will be awesome hehe
Thursday, February 14, 2008
oops i forgot that they have their own makeup now
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Ohhh I want to see Hello Kitty too!
Friday, February 15, 2008
That would be so perfect!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Oh! I would love to see a collaboration with Alchemy Gothic. The colours I see are flashes of ruby red, emerald green, turquoise blue and dark purple with black and grey eyes. They’d also bring back Feline, only formulated so that it didn’t smudge so easily. I also dream of a pewter MAC necklace designed by AG. (sighs dreamily)
Friday, February 15, 2008
I knew you’d say that, Tekoa ;) It sounds like a gorgeous collection!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Hello Kitty would be absolutely adorable. I’d also like to see a real collaboration with Disney (not just a few lip products). Something with villains and princesses maybe…I dunno. As far as real designers go I’d love to see something with Anna Sui. I adore her perfumes already. Random thought: I think a collaboration with Tim Gunn (I’m Project Runway obsessed!) would be cool and probably really classy.
Friday, February 15, 2008
Hey Christine! I’d LOVE a full Disney line, OMG! I love Disney :D
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
I would adore if TokiDoki did a collaboration with MAC! I can just imagine the packaging, it’d be too adorable not to buy! =) I would predict that the colors be really fun and bright; golds, reds, turquoise…
Friday, February 15, 2008
Hey Rachel! That would be interesting :) I wonder if they even could, since they did a launch with Smashbox!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Not really a designer, but an all-out DISNEY collection would make my life complete :)
Friday, February 15, 2008
I completely agree!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Carrie- actually, I totally did! Duh! No wonder it was such a great idea, it’s been done.
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
my first thought was betsey johnson too, seems like the perfect pairing since she a lot of her designs are classic retro-style, but she also uses really great, vivid colors. hello kitty would be adorable, but i can’t really imagine what colors would come out of that. and LAMB would amazing, they could screen the white logo on black cases, omg – i would buy it all! :)
Friday, February 15, 2008
I agree, Davina :) All these launches sound amazing! Too bad they aren’t a reality!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
Cavalli! I can imagine the animal print powders already.. zebra for a shimmery highlight, and leopard for bronzing. oooh and a velvety black with midnight blue flecks eyeshadow. I shall call that one Panther. heheh.
Friday, February 15, 2008
There are a lot of people who agree! I love it :) I would totally buy it!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
I agree with the Hello Kitty idea! I didn’t even think of that, but when i read the posts above… i was like OMG YES!!!
Friday, February 15, 2008
Hey Vinna! Looks like we have a lot of Hello Kitty fans!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
I doubt LAMB would collab with MAC. Since Stefani already has her own perfume line, I bet she would just start making her own cosmetics first. But you never know…
Friday, February 15, 2008
Yeah, who knows how that might work, but it’s fun to envision!
Wednesday, February 13, 2008
I think LAMB would be great too! Also, I feel that they should re-collaborate with Playboy. They only had a lipstick and cheek set a while back and I feel that since Playboy has grown even more, they could extend the line and do a Holly’s line, etc. I’m not so much in little kid stuff like Hello Kitty…but it would be interesting. Maybe like a british/Burberry theme…Jessica Alba, Beyonce….other celebrities that love the brand. There are endless possibilities.
Friday, February 15, 2008
I would love a new launch with Playboy :) I think that’d be really fun!
Thursday, February 14, 2008
omg cavalli would be hot too i think hello kitty would sell great since hello kitty fans are collectors haha
anna sui and versace got their own cosmetic lines already
playboy would be hot too with the bunny yay haha
Friday, February 15, 2008
Seems like there are a lot of Cavalli fans!! :)
Playboy has done some stuff with MAC in the past!
Friday, February 15, 2008
wow Cavalli would be hot and also Louis Vuitton, they could do it in brown colors hehe
Friday, February 15, 2008
I wonder what a LV collection would really end up being!
Friday, February 15, 2008
juicy couture!!!!!!!!!
Friday, February 15, 2008
Doesn’t seem like you’re the only one who wishes that, Crystalic!
