BACKSTAGE| Renli Su

The TONI&GUY team are hard at work for Renli Su’s debut show at Fashion Scout this afternoon. At the heart of this collection is a unique combination of Indian handmade linen with organic fabrics from Ireland. Stylists are seeking to reflect this in the hair, “We’re trying to project the organic feeling of the clothes into the hair by combining two elements”  Daniel de Angelis explains. “Strength is will be reflected in the ‘peek-a-boo’ plait at the front of the face whilst the long waves capture the youthful and free vibe of the clothes”. Stylists blow dried Label.M body mousse into the hair to achieve the volumised and textured finish. A spiral wand was then used to create natural looking waves which maintained the distinctly untechnical and earthy look.

Make-up was kept natural to in keeping with the organic theme which permeates the collection. Model’s cheeks were flushed with light colour and make-up artists strayed away from statement colours. Emphasis was placed on natural beauty with an earthy brown palette. Brows were groomed, filled in then rubbed off and eyeshadow was lightly applied to accentuate the eyes. To finish off the look, lips had brown undertones which a combination of shades to achieve a rusty pink
