NARS Backstage at Tome Spring/Summer 2015

NARS created the look for the Tome SS 15 runway show

Show: Tome SS’15

Lead Artist: James Boehmer, NARS Director of Global Artistry

LOOK: “The inspiration for the collection came from two Indian artists -- Rukmini Devi, a classical dancer and Dayanita Singh, a contemporary photographer -- who represent the richness and diversity of old and new India.  The look fuses traditional elements of the Indian culture and modern makeup. The skin is very matte, with a clean, liquid eyeliner on the top eyelid, no mascara. Some girls will have a pale, chalky-pink lip.”

Backstage at Tome Autumn/Winter 2014

The Tome A/W 2014 runway show saw James Boehmer behind the brush. “The collection has subtle elements of the 60's. The beauty muse was the Iranian artist Shirin Neshat and we specifically wanted to capture the spirit of how she wore her eyeliner. This look is a modern interpretation of that, distilled in its simplest form. The definition is only along the bottom lash line and the boyish brow and glowing skin keep the look modern,” said James.
