Featuring green glittering faces, red fiery faces and coral spawning makeup, the model's cosmetic change reflects the shift in menswear. The cosmetic art direction speaks directly to the season's collection and draws inspiration from ocean. Givenchy is no stranger to putting on a dynamic art-driven show.
