Fall 2013 Fashion and Beauty Forecast
Nemo in New York didn't stop Mercedes Benz Fashion Week from taking fashionistas and celebs by storm.
Cuba Gooding, Jr. says, "It's always electric when I come to Manhattan and it's fashion week."
"There are so many creative people around, " says Bono, who was there with wife Ali Hewson, co-creator of their EDUN collection.
And Katherine Heigl was loving all the leather!
Loads of it come next Fall...lots of textures, fabulous prints, and structured silhouettes. But colors, not so much.
"I think after so many seasons of bright, everything is sort of coming down." Hal Rubenstein, Editor at Large, InStyle.
And Glenda Bailey, Editor in Chief at Harper's Bazaar says, "Instead of thinking of the usual black and white, think about adding some camel, navy and some grey."
Pants are getting slimmer, minis get a makeover...and turtlenecks are still trending. The fashion message? WEARABLE!
"The clothes themselves, the silhouette, the shapes are incredibly easily translatable into lines that women can afford into their usual places that they go to at the mall," Hal Rubenstein, Editor at Large, InStyle.
And when it comes to beauty, it's no different, with easy to achieve looks. Go bold with fun eye shadows, or a bright strong lip.
Avril Graham, Executive Fashion & Beauty Editor at Harper's Bazaar says, "We're still seeing a dark lip moment, absolutely."
And when it comes to the hair, pulled back ponytails are swinging all over the place! Don't worry its easy to do!
Ric Pipino breaks it down. "It's a very clean look, whether it's a low pony at the back of the neck or on the higher side. We are using the Conair flat iron to smooth the hair out and then we're smoothing out all the hair around the face with the Conair crimping iron or the blow dryer and a brush for a clean look. We pull it back up into a ponytail, wrap hair around the elastic and secure it."
The Fall fashion and beauty forecast...FABULOUS!
