WHO: Revlon Global Artistic Director, Gucci Westman, backstage at Assembly
WHAT: Revlon Global Artistic Director, Gucci Westman, created a minimalistic, beach inspired look with an edgy twist and a pop of color for Assembly’s Spring/Summer ’14 collection.
“I wanted this look to represent a really sporty, cool girl,” said Westman. “I started with healthy looking skin and added a bit of a natural, bronzy glow then paired it with a matte pink lip, inspired by a girl whose just come from the beach with zink on her lips. Since all of the girls were sporting these really cool sunglasses, we kept the eyes bare and instead added a graphic hot pink stripe on one cheek. The look really complements the graphic look of the clothing and is super flattering on all of the girls.”
“I was really inspired by the metallic copper color used throughout the collection and definitely wanted to do something a bit graphic with nail look. I wanted it to be a bit tough and not too feminine,” says celebrity manicurist Jin Soon Choi. “To recreate the look, apply two coats of rose gold polish, then swipe the white across one section of the nail and finish with a thin curvy black line to separate the colors. It’s easy to do at home because you can really play with it and get creative with each nail.”

Love the nails! Not sure about the pink stripes, though - I don't think it'd go down well if normal girls showed up at work looking like that! Interesting concept though, and great post :)
