New York A/W ’13: Trend Alert … Purple Peepers Rule the Runway

Accessed http://primped.ninemsn.com.au 11/2/13

'Fashion Week is possibly my favourite time of the year, particularly when the backstage beauty pack inspire us with beautiful – and wearable – offerings that we can quickly whip up in time for our upcoming autumn. As Kat mentioned on Friday, we’re knee-deep in NYFW goodness, and while it was too early to call on the trends last week, over the weekend we spotted glimpses of the colour we’re predicting to be dipping our brushes into in a few weeks time.

It’s purple, Primpers, which – if you follow the makeup rule book – is traditionally reserved to make gorgeous green eyes pop, but is also renowned to look lovely on brown-eyed beauties. And we have to say, we’re loving it equally as much paired with blue eyes, too.'

First seen at the Jason Wu's Collection at New York's Fashion Week the bold, vibrant purple eye. Purple reigns supreme for the upcoming seasons

Check out Rae Morris preview of what's to come at the L'oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival guide, with Megan Gale wearing a similar purple/gold eye combination as seen in the below images. We can expect to see some beautiful jewel like eyes on the runways this season. Be bold, be daring! For day keep the rest of the makeup muted and amp up the glamour for night with a matte deep crimson or grape lip.
