We are accustomed to see the models walking on the runway in a perfect way. They are accurate in every detail. But who works behind their beauty? The makeover got in the backstage: makeup artists, hair stylists and manicurists do their best to accomplish the mannequin work.

All this artists, leaded by Antonio Sacripante, CEO of the National Academy of Nail Art "Nails&Beauty", contributed to made perfect the DSquared2 and Stella Jean fashion show, thanks to the use of the nail varnish by Morgan Taylor, a Californian brand that made a success in the backstage of New York.

The brands presented their Fall/Winter 2014-2015 collection on the last day of Milan Fashion Week.

DSquared2
For DSquared2, parade both models wearing a 60s look and nurses wearing tight dresses. They are located in a surreal atmosphere between feathers and rhinestones, dark sunglasses and flashy jewels. In an explosion of shining womanliness, Antonio Sacripante adapts his work to the fashion show mood and creates a 60s manicure with a clear cut, polished and essential, by applying to the models nails some varnished and flash-tone tips named "In the Nude", and a total mat named "Mattes A Wrap", the top coat Morgan Taylor which dims all the varnishes. Then, the manicurists give a squared shape to the attached tips, reducing the models' nails and extending the nurses' ones, giving them a sensual look.

Stella Jean
Stella Jean is a combination of 3 different cultures: Japanese, Italian and African. They coexist in a galaxy of colors and graphic elements.

She contrasts her beloved kaleidoscopic and exuberant wax print with the flash-tone and pinky nails that stand out the rigor and elegance of the oriental beauty and are almond-shaped, rounded and sinuous, obtaining an elegant and polished goal.
Once again, Antonio Sacripante relies on the Morgan Taylor Californian brand to dress the hands of this contemporary geisha girls.
