Another early call time, this time 7am at the Southbank Centre for the Antonio Berardi show. Val Garland was keying this show so I was very much looking forward to it for that reason! I've done a few shows with her before, but the novelty certainly hasn't worn off yet! He first assistant carried out the demo on the model, as Val was running late. Turns out she had decided to walk, but it was a lot further away than she thought it was! She arrived as the demo was going on (which seemed to be going on and on......). There was two lip looks for this show, a nude lip (Myth lipstick with gloss), and a dark burgundy lip, with a bright coral pigment pushed over the top on to the centre of the lip. Generally, the blonde girls had the nude lip, and the brunettes or black girls had the dark lip. The rest of the make-up was kept really simple, just a light base with a bit of contouring on the eyes and cheeks. Everything ran smoothly, there was the usual chaos backstage where the models have to change and get in line up and we have to do the final checks and their body make-up. I'm starting to get used to it now but it can get really irritating! No matter where you stand you get told to move, you are in the way. There are so many people there all trying to get their job done, it just gets really chaotic. The photographers are the main thing that I find a hindrance because it's not just them you have to contend with, it's all their apparatus too! And you have to be so careful not to get make-up on the clothes, thanks God it's not happened to me yet, and I pray it never will!!!
