After the glorious Indian inspired collections 2008 brought us: Lancome Maharani Jewels and Manish Arora for M.A.C Cosmetics, comes another India inspired make-up collection by Givenchy.This wonderful information comes from Nicolas Degennes' personal website, where he has updated it to feature his Spring/Summer collection. To view the entire collection, and his own little notes for the collection, click here.
"Like a Bollywood film, Nicolas Degennes creates an extravaganza of color to make everyday life a dream. “I saw India as a bombardment of colors bursting forth to the rhythm of filmi music. I had already been a fan of this infectious, upbeat music for a long time, but of course it was the imagery that really grabbed me — Bollywood and its palettes of colors burst with beams of light. Melodramatic love stories… But love stories all the same, with all the emotion, the ardor, the passion of hearts that are torn apart and the struggle through hardship… The stuff of life! And the women! So beautiful, vivacious, dazzling… … and yet so sweetly demure. A homage to Indian beauty, heightened with a discreet air of eroticism and anchored in the purest tradition. What I adore in these love sagas is the eternal femininity in a showcase of flashy, ultra-kitsch glamour and gaudy music."
