Fall makeup trends being touted as revolutionary

PEOPLE ARE taluing abeut 2 revolution.

“New naturals,’ “understated

elegance,”’ the ‘‘anarchy of | _ deconstructionism,’’ loose layers,

the Edwardian dandy, sweater dressing ... the list of time-warp- ing, gender-bending trends goes onand op: “ ;

Through the chaotic mix of col- ors, textures, silhquettes and period influences, emerge the . themes for beauty and fashion that are being routed as revolu- tionary by fashion editors both a home and abroad. _ a

At a tirne when a top model can comand $19,000 a show, it is no surprise that designers and make- up artists often gain their inspira- tion frorn the mannecytiins ©. themselves. Three portraits of © modei beaut, — the waif, the gamine, and the coquette — il-

_lustrate'the major trends for fail.

Se Waif

Five-foot seven-inch Kate

a Moss’ meteoric rise to supermodel

stardom has been dogged by con- «

troversy ever since she first floated -

«While designers are lining up to

drape their creations oz her * teed-thin pre-pubescent non- figure, Calvin Kiein having snap- ped her up as his new muse, the public voices its displeasure over such unnatural! ans unobtainable thinness. ;

Still, the fresh-faced makeup worn by the waif has come to the

_ forefront this falt.

At Calvin Klein, mode's had the air of fresh-scrubbed sc!:oolgirls: no eye makeup, no mascara, Vaseline on eyelids and lips, rosy pink lipstick rubbed across cheeks and down the nose. A watered- down base revealed ‘‘visible im- perfections’’ — dark circles, lines and freckles — that left the fesh- ion hounds’ tongnes wagging.

- The Body Shop’s ‘“‘Colourings”’ line of cosmetics offers new pro- ducts for falt that can help you

obiain this natural, no-makeup ook. : Liptinis provide a transparent gloss of color, in rich yet muted shades of heather, peach, copper, rose and mulberry. An added bonus: Liptints blend jojoba and roschip oi} with aloe extract, wheatgerm oi! and sunscreen to moisturize and protect lips.

And to popularize what profes- sional makeup artists have been doing for ages — using lipstick as an all-over color application — The Body Shop has come out with Complete Colour, an all-in-one cream eye shadow, lipstick and blusher that dries to a soft matte finish. It is available in terra-cotta and rosewood.

Gemine

The dictionary definition of the gamine is ‘‘a girl who roams the streets ... a girl of elfin appeal.” The °90s take on the gamine wears designer rags, sports a shag hair- cut arid is a more polished version of the waif.

Following in the footsteps of famous gamines Audrey Hepburn,

Jean Seberg, Leslie Caron and Yves St. Laurent muse LouLou de La Falaise are Amber Valletta, Canadian newcomer Shalom, ac- tress Jane March and Lucie de La Falaise.

Lips are filled in with muted berry tones, eyebrows are plucked and pencilled, eyes are unlined, cheeks are delicately rouged and the face is lightly dusted with loose powder.

Paris-based Stendhal cosmetics offer creamy lipsticks in rich col- ors like Rose Natur and Gipsy, a deep wine. For a clean and longer-lasting finish, lips should be outlined with lip pencil in a matching shade.

Coquette

The heavily decorated coquette, French for ‘‘flirt,”” blends ele- ments of the English dandy and the French courtesan.

At New York designer Anna Sui's fall show, models were made up like Kewpie dolls, with heavily powdered faces, circles of pink blush, cupid’s bow mouths and thin, pencilled eyebrows.

A finger-in-the-socket frizzed bouffant at Vivienne Westwood, Louis XIV curls at Anna Sui, and an upswept hairdo with braided tail at Christian Lacroix injected an element of fantasy and harked back to the court of Versailles. At Dolce & Gabana, Prada, Chanel and Jil Sander, innocent, rouged faces and glossed lips offset ruf- fled poet’s blouses, fitted Edwar- dian jackets and crushed velvet bell-bottoms.

In keeping with this mood, Chanel's cosmetics colors for fall are rich and flirtatious.

A word of caution to the adventurous: heavy-handed makeup, elaborately coiffed hair and washed-out waifs are meant to be directional statements. Take only elements that suit your face and your lifestyle and disregard the rest ... for as we know, to- day’s ‘‘new neutrals’’ are tomor- row’s “tired tones.”
