OVERVIEW
Zang Toi is a master at interpreting inspiration with modernism, futurism and relevance. Here Elizabeth Taylor, the movie GIANT, Texas Rose and cowboy all come together. Opening the show was American Ballet Theatre star, Corey Sterns.


INSPIRATION
For the ss11 Zang Toi collection, the inspiration for the makeup look is a reinterpretation of Elizabeth Taylor's classic beauty as well as the movie GIANT. However, Zang wanted the look to be youthful, fresh and







FACE
For the skin, we kept the skin super hydrated and used Primer first and concealer as foundation so that a very luminous complexion was created for the season instead of the matte skin typical of the 50's.


EYES
The eyes are soft, very bright and open with just a wash of shift shimmer highlight color and very defined black shadow smudged into the upper lash line instead of an obvious cat eye or extension at outer corner.

LASHES
Black mascara defines the upper and lower lash lines and add intensity to the eye.


BROWS
Liz Taylor's beauty is framed with sculpted, defined brows. For Zang's show we used Brow Gel to brush the brows into place and then just a hint of Brow Color was added to subtly enhance and define the brows.


CHEEKS
We decided to forgo blush for the Zang show to really give a free feeling to the look and make the look more carefree, less done.


LIPS
Instead of a red lip color, the look uses a modern petal soft pink. The lips are prepared with a hint of concealer to brighten the pink.
