Phillip Lim Spring 2017

Sally Hansen Global Color Ambassador, Madeline Poole, created the nail look at the Phillip Lim SS17 show yesterday where the collection was inspired by Western and Victorian themes. For the nail look, Madeline used Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Let It Snow and Gilty Party to create a look that was both “stark” and “dynamic”.

“For Spring 2017, I wanted the nails to feel stark and dynamic. To avoid a “white-out” effect, metallic is layered on top to evoke the collection’s hardware and inspiration. The overall effect is brushed – as if done by the hand of a young girl – but still elevated, refined and accessible,” explained Phillip Lim.

  

THE INSPIRATION

“Keeping in mind the various references of 3.1 Phillip Lim's Spring 2017 collection from Western to Victorian, we came up with a nail that is accessible yet elevated. Not just a solid color, but a white with a metallic overlay. The nail is painted in two coats of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Let's Snow and then lightly brushed on top with strokes of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Gilty Party. The result is an optical, three-dimensional texture. The metallic is inspired by the hardware, elaborate studding, and zippers from the collection." – Madeline Poole, Sally Hansen Global Color Ambassador
