LONDON FASHION WEEK: MARK FAST AW20

The final day of London Fashion Week is here and what a show to end our trip on. Mark Fast took us right back to the Swinging Sixties with his catwalk, vision and makeup.

Last season we had contrasting pops of colour on the cheeks and eyes, with a sea of bright green and purple eyes from our Electrify Artistry Palette. This season the neon colours were nowhere to be seen, instead a strong wing outlined the eye with False Eyelashes. Paired with a nude lip and lightly blushed cheeks.

‘The makeup was very Sixties inspired. We created a very thick black wing on top of the eye, making sure it was very angular and straight. We used False Lashes in style Desire to emphasise the wing style. Finishing the eye with a little bit of smudged Eye Shadow underneath from the Elemental Artistry Palette to make it balanced.’

‘We kept the skin quite matte and for the lips and cheeks we gave them a peachy tone. For the cheeks we used Colour Veil in Enamour paired with Chara Antimatter Lipstick for the perfect duo. The inspiration was all the 60’s icons all blended together. Francoise Hardy, Brigitte Bardot also a bit of Lana Del Ray thrown in there too. A very pretty and very flattering look because you can tailor the liner to your eye shape.’

The bold shades still featured on the catwalk with crochet gowns, micro hemlines and even men’s clothing making an appearance. Mark Fast ensured that his collection wasn’t just limited to women with street-style sportswear being heavily featured in the line-up.

With a ‘classic colour palette such as rose pink, red and royal blue mixed in with camo-graffiti, off set with neon highlights of fluorescent yellow. Playful pink and sharp green project a fresh personal adaptation.’ As explained by Mark Fast himself on the little sheets he left out explaining the inspiration to his collection.

That is all for Fashion Week Autumn Winter 2020 sadly as we pack up our makeup bags and travel back to Manchester. If you have missed our backstage coverage, head over to our Instagram where we have saved it all in a highlight for you. Until next time London Fashion Week.
