Vogue March 2010 Inspiration for high fashion

This is Vogues March 2010 shoot, and perfect inspiration for my high fashion photo shoot. I absolutely fell in love with these images when I found them, I feel like they have mixed the tribal theme into high fashion perfectly. I love how plain they have kept the makeup on her face and focused mainly on the styling and body. The body art symbolises tribal shapes straight away, and I like the contrast with the high fashion styling and the 'jungle lie' background.





Practice make-up

These are some practice shots of lion king inspired make up. I took some ideas from the lion king programme and incorporated them into my own ideas. I looked at the colours used on stage, they were mainly reds, blues and yellows. I used block colours because I didn't want them to blend, instead I wanted them to contrast with eachother and stand out. I was bored in my room, so I thought id roughly experiment a bit with my make up. Looking through the programmes, I gathered inspiration and decided on a look for my final shoot. I also tried to experiment with the lips by doing an ombre look on them. I used red on the outside and white/yellow on the inner lips.
