Milan Fashion Week Fall 2013 backstage beauty: 3 bold lip colours we love

We still have Paris to go, but it’s safe to say that so far, there has been a lot of pared down beauty this season. When makeup artists do drag the colour out, it seems a strong lip is in favour. As Milan Fashion Week Fall 2013 winds down, here are three of our favourite bold mouths from that city.

Blurry vision at Marni:
Tom Pecheux layered two creamy red pigments and a rich berry lipstick on mouths, before using a Q-Tip dipping in setting powder to diffuse the outline of the lip.

Matte exercise at Bottega Veneta:
According to Pat McGrath, Tomas Maier knew exactly what he wanted the beauty look to be for the Fall 2013 showing of Bottega Veneta: very matte lips. Inspired by some fabric swatches the designer sent McGrath ahead of time, burnt orange was the shade they settled on.

Classic beauty at Dolce & Gabbana:
A picture of super muse Sophia Loren picture was spotted backstage at Dolce and Gabbana. For Pat McGrath, that inspiration manifested into a perfectly drawn scarlet lip that referenced the heavy helping of the shade featured throughout the collection.
