Setting the Mood with COLOR

Suzi Weiss-Fischmann Fall Beauty Forecast...
by SUZI WEISS-FISCHMANN

OPI Executive Vice President & Artistic Director
FOR FALL/WINTER 2005, color trendsare seen as an expression of character and mood. Four distinct "auras" - the legendary leading lady, the country artist, the irresistible rebel and the circus sweetheart - all co-exist, giving today's woman a lush choice of palette, application and design. The Chicago Collection by OPI embraces all four color moods, withshades for nails and lips that bring every look into sharp fall focus. Click Here to begin shopping!

The Legendary Leading Lady


Beautifully played, from the 1940's legendary leading ladies to today, this look is updated by bleached, barely-there tones accented with acidic tints. Blonde is done one better when complimented by rich creams, blush pinks, soft aqua, violet, tangerine and yellow. Sumptuous silk taffeta abounds. Chicago Collection Shades: Skinny Dip’n in Lake Michg’n, ChicaGo Get a Manicure!, Windy City Pretty.

The Country Artist


A little rakish, a little decadent, a little pop - the country artist comes to life with a blend of brown neutrals softened by winter gold and cream. Beautifully foggy shades of heather, tea, softgreen and faded yellow are offset by cool browns for hair. Lips are touched with candied pinks and roses, and eyes with an artist's spattering of autumn-garden shades. Watch for metallic brocade. Chicago Collection Shades: The Grape Lakes, That’s an “EL” of a Color!

The Irresistible Rebel


Unconventional and not shy - this is an urban palette that demands notice. Black, gunmetal greys and sumptuous dark violets in shades of red and blue are jolted by beams of electric color, in a seductive, irresistible look. Graffiti and geometric patterns communicate rebellious, seductive appeal.
Chicago Collection Shades: Lincoln Park After Dark, Got the Blues for Red.

The Circus Sweeheart


With its deep vibrant brights, this palette is a magical circus of the 1920s sensuality, 1940s sophistication and 1980s excess. Think vivid orange, turquoise, violet and chatreuse with a counterpoint of warm browns and wines. Look for embellishments like crystals, stones, feathers, sequins, tassels and lace - and Venetian-glass-inspired effects for lips and nails. Chicago Collection Shades: All that Razz-berry, O’Hare & Nails Look Great!, Mrs. O’Leary’s BBQ.

Get into what's left of summer and give in to dazzling summer colors!
Swimsuits have never been so sassy, and the emphasis is on color as in Pucci's cap-sleeved one-piece with starbursts of vivid shades and a black tiebelt. Those with the figures (and nerve) for it willcovet BCBG's daring violet halter-topstyle with show-all side cutouts and a V-neckline that plunges "to belly button and beyond," secured with a bright orange tie.

More modest types will go for Gottex's orange two-piece with sheer insets for an in-betweeny-bikini look or Anne Cole's green and black and turquoise and black suits with wide-set straps. Gucci wins the Summer Skimpy Award, for an itsy bitsy teeny weeny purply brown bikini that shows almost all, even when covered by its matching long-sleeved, very short bolero jacket. Elizabeth Hurley's new collection makes waves--not only the dazzling aqua, hot pink, and lilac bikinis but also the embroidered sarongs and pareas. Will they look as good on us as on her?

The season's necessities: a sarong wrap or sheer coverup, straw beach tote, and great sun-glasses. Essie especially likes Gucci's glamorous over-sized Jackie O shades.Of course, the most important accessories for cruise or beach are beautifully manicured hands and pedicured feet with scintillatingly summery shades from Essie's Cruise Collection.
