Allure Backstage: The Look of FENDI SS15

Directed, Produced and Reported by Karen Morrison

At Fendi Spring/Summer 2015, makeup artist Peter Philips broke the mold with a dramatic beauty statement: graphic strips of blue leather eyeliner, cut to a sharp wing and applied directly to the lids. The result? A bold, modern take on classic Italian glamour — architectural, expressive, and utterly fresh.

 

In this episode of Allure The LOOK Of, Philips shares his inspiration behind the look and how he used leather as makeup, creating a texture and shape that couldn’t be achieved with pigment alone. The beauty was balanced with minimal skin and nude lips to let the eyes command full attention. Top Model Georgia May Jagger also weighs in backstage, offering her take on the unconventional look — a striking blend of edge and elegance that perfectly matched Karl Lagerfeld’s vision for the Fendi woman.
