Ginger & Smart The Transcendent collection is inspired by the fourth state of consciousness, lying beyond waking, dreaming and sleeping. Enjoy the video from Rosemount Australian Fashion Week 2010 catwalk plus inspiration behind both the collection and make-up.

Magnetic prints, diffused angles and blurred perspective you see when you close your eyes. The colour palette travels from calm shades of nude, lilac and mint to vibrant injections of blush and earthy tones of olive, smoke and oily blue. Silhouettes are fluid, modern and effortless with sleeveless jackets, sexy slouchy trousers and chic dresses worn with silk printed lingerie. Must-have accessories include sharp shoes with angular metal heels and soft bags in draped and twisted perforated leather in grind grey and nude.

Key make-up artist for Ginger & Smart at RAFW 2010, Natasha Severino for M.A.C says:
The inspiration for this collection comes from inner feminine strength and self-awareness. I wanted the make-up to be naturally sexy for this show. Skin has been left raw yet made luminous, concealing only minor imperfections. Eyes are defined and sculpted – gold pigment has been used on the eyes and peak of lips to give a ‘futuristic goddess’ feel to the make up. Soft cream coloured paint has been used as future tribal war paint in the centre of the forehead and temples, to relate directly to ones ‘third eye’ and one’s own self-awareness.
