BACKSTAGE| Ji Cheng SS14




















Ahead of this afternoons Ji Cheng catwalk show, the Fashion Scout team caught up with our sponsors Tony&Guy and The Body Shop UK to see what looks they have created.

Ji Cheng’s collection derives heavily from far eastern influences; therefore this needed to be reflected in both the hair and the make-up. The Body Shop UK have been working with a palette of cherry blossom pinks and natural hues to create a light base tone, with a dewy radiant feel and dramatic blocked Geisha inspired eyebrows, using The Body Shop ‘Radiant Highlighter’ and the ‘Palette 21’ Shimmer Cube.

Similarly the hair is traditionally Geisha with a modern twist, inspired by both The Great Gatsby and a Chinese 1920’s opera singer. Tony&Guy’s stylist Becky Dobney told us how the simple style encompasses a braid flat to the back of the head and a split ponytail bun on top; both stylised and conceptual.
