The Nars x Steven Klein collection will surely be everything dark, moody dreams are made of
Well, here we were impatiently waiting for spring and warmer weather, when we heard news of the Nars x Steven Klein collection coming this holiday season, and suddenly we just want to skip over everything and go straight to November 2015. Announced today, the brand has partnered with the legendary photographer to release a line of makeup at the end of this year.
“I am honoured to be asked by François to collaborate on this Nars project with him, based on the previous artists he had worked with—Andy Warhol and Guy Bourdin. I have always had the highest regard for François’ work. He was the pioneer of moving from one of the greatest makeup artists to creating great makeup,” said Klein in a statement. “There are few hands that could do what François has done. He has impeccable taste and stands strong by his work. His colours and his eye for imagery is unique and of the highest caliber.”
With packaging designed by creative director Fabien Baron, the Nars x Steven Klein collection is obviously going to earn a spot at the front of our vanities. Considering the collab details we already have, plus the fact that the line will be coming out during the holidays, we’re willing to bet on inky, super-pigmented shadows and dark, high-shine lip glosses, all reflective of the dark and sexy aesthetic we’re used to seeing in everything, from Klein’s work with Lady Gaga on several music videos, to his tour and video collaborations with Madonna over the years, and of course countless fashion shoots (including our personal favourite, “Good Kate Bad Kate).”
Our guess? The collection will likely look a lot like the makeup from “Fame” (pictured above).
