Vogue Japan's latest beauty feature 'A Playground of Color' spotlights contemporary clown makeup that is modeled by Katie Moore. Photographer Sophie Delaporte captures the image series and teams up with wardrobe stylist Irina Marie who opts for a wardrobe that is as vivid as this photoshoot's cosmetics.
Hair and makeup for Vogue Japan's latest beauty feature is a contemporary take on whimsical clown makeup and is the work of Alessandro Rebecchi, responsible for its locks and Alice Ghendrih, in charge of cosmetics.
Gracing the June 2016 edition of Vogue Japan, A Playground of Color rejects the minimalist and bare-faced makeup of the past few seasons and instead embraces wild and artistic cosmetics. While not suitable for everyday wear, each of this editorial's beauty looks is reflective of more conceptual runway themes.
