Le Métier de Beauté has collaborated with Marchesa to launch a capsule collection of fall cosmetics.
“We have always been huge fans of their designs, the attention to detail, beading and tactile nature of every gown,” said Joanna Vorachek Austin, president of Le Métier de Beauté. “They embody from a couture standpoint what we embody from a beauty standpoint.”
“We love makeup, and have always enjoyed experimenting with different colors and looks,” said Keren Craig, co-founder of Marchesa.
According to the deal, Marchesa for Le Métier de Beauté offers two five-pan facial palettes each retailing for $65, four lip glosses at $35 each and a liquid-to-powder highlighting pen for $48.
Marchesa’s designers, Craig and Georgina Chapman personally composed the facial palettes to reflect their individual styles. Chapman’s palette, dubbed La Lune, is a smoky, high-contrast look, while Craig’s compact, Le Soleil, mixes a bronzer with vibrant hues for eyes and lips.
“We wanted to create a palette that was glamorous but also functional,” Chapman noted. “With a shadow, lip gloss, blush and liner, everything you would need for touch-ups during a night out is accessible and easy to use. The sleekness of the palette was also important to us because evening bags are so small and often do not have room for multiple beauty products.”
