“I like things that are hand made- but personally for a man, I’m not interested in fashion that evolves with time. I like things to be the same. For a woman I think it’s fantastic to have things that are different- it’s like a flower where every season there’s some new exotic bloom.”
-Roman Coppola

No doubt you have probably already fashionably feasted on the Burberry ad campaign featuring the lovely Jourdan Dunn. Here at 1966 we are always on the lookout out for more and more lip colors. We loved the the light, airy yet demure tint of Dunn’s editorial pout. For the campaign Jourdan rocked Lip Cover in Devon Sunset No.28 with the color being spread across her lips then applied more intensely right in the center of her mouth. The result was absolutely fab!

Paris-based designer Giambattista Valli will be releasing a fresh lip color collection in collaboration with makeup powerhouse M.A.C. Cosmetics. In regards to the much anticipated release, Valli says,
“I’m very well known for dresses, no? And I thought it was very nice, the idea of dressing your lips… For a creative person, collaborating can be frustrating because you feel that you’re limited or stuck within someone else’s ideas, but with MAC it was 100 percent freedom and 100 percent support just to make my idea become a reality, to pull out my flowers and my sense and my emotion and put it into the color.”
Well, we are totally stoked about this collection and can’t wait to try out the various tints and shades. Colors in the M.A.C. Giambattista collection range from very light pinks to deep purples and plums. Therefore, what type of lady would this collection work for the most?
Giambattista Valli dished,
“The best thing about makeup is that a lipstick can really change your look. If you never wear color on your lips and then one day you wear red, everyone just goes ‘wow! I made these for a woman with personality, a woman who lives her life and isn’t afraid to wear color and isn’t afraid to kiss!”

Living in California we are accustomed to the coast and love everything about the sand as well as sea. The breeze, the calming sound of waves crashing, vitamin D from the sunny one high in the sky and oh yeah… the fashion! Beach wear and just summer couture in general is all about fun and good vibes. What you wear for such moments will most likely be encapsulated by photographs soon to hit a social media platform near you. Therefore, gain a little vital inspiration from the High Times editorial featuring the stunning Lais Ribiero. Photography for the beauty’s editorial was lensed by Enrique Badulescu.

Well she put it down again. Rihanna The Face Of Dior’s 2015 Secret Garden Campaign is out. This a big moment because this is the first time a woman of color has been the face of Dior. Sad but true.
“It is such a big deal for me, for my culture, for a lot of young girls of any color,” Rihanna had told MTV News. “I think to be acknowledged by Dior means a lot, as a woman, to feel beautiful – to feel elegant and timeless.” So enjoy these photos cause Riri has done us proud.
