Allure Backstage Jason Wu Spring 2013 backstage beauty video. Jason Wu Spring 2013 backstage beauty look by makeup artist Diane Kendal and hair stylist Odile Gilbert was sexy and elegant. Photographer Helmut Newton was the inspiration for Jason Wu Spring 2013 Collection, one of the hottest shows at New York Fashion Week.

Hair stylist Odile Gilbert used Kérastase Elixir Ultime Oléo-Complexe to give her sleek, braided updos shine and a sense of chic elegance and sophistication. As she explained backstage the look of Jason Wu Spring 2013 is “Expensive and elegant, but not vulgar, updos with a masculine side and feminine side.”

“She’s a very strong, sexy woman—very bold,” makeup artist Diane Kendal said of the fierce brows and vibrant red mouth she created. Kendal used a combination of six products to create the “very bright, feminine lip,”. She applied M.A.C. Lip Pencil in Cherry to the entire mouth, then darkened the outer edges with M.A.C. Lip Pencil in Vino.

Go backstage at Jason Wu Fall 2013 with top models Cara Delevingne, Jourdan Dunn, Daphne Groeneveld and Jessica Stam and find out why Jason Wu is one of the most buzzed about designers at New York Fashion Week. On Friday afternoon, even with threats of a severe snowstorm about to hit the city – it was still a full house at his show on the Upper East side.

As Cara Delevingne told me backstage – “this is really the show that opens NY Fashion Week…Jason is such a sweet guy, I just love doing his show – it’s always so elegant but cool”. All of the models feel the same way about Jason – they adore him because he knows how to make each one of them feel beautiful.

Jason Wu is only 30 years old. In just 6 years since launching his business he has become one of the most important designers working in American fashion. Originally born in Taipei, he was raised in Vancouver, Canada and he now owns a very successful design studio in New York. He is First Lady Michelle Obama’s designer of choice and created both of her inaugural gowns, which helped put him on the international map.

For Fall 2013 Jason Wu celebrated the beauty of a woman – focusing on femininity and strength. As he explained to me “I really wanted to propose the idea of femininity as seen through my eyes – it wasn’t about a complex concept or over reaching idea – it was about the idea of a woman – feminine clothes that women want to wear“.

The collection was a knockout, full of seductive wearable pieces that have become his signature. Watch the Jason Wu Fall 2013 Fashion Video here now and discover more online at JasonWuStudio.com
