Napoleon Perdis Fall 09 - Dedicated to Marchesa

Marchesa has taken her rightful position as beauty icon with not one but two different makeup collections created in her image. The enormous, dark-rimmed eyes Peter Philips whipped up for the Chanel Cruise show were a direct shout-out to Casati’s own sultry aesthetic, while makeup artist Napoleon Perdis channeled the provocateur for his fall color range. His Divine Marchesa collection just debuted with a Boudoir Mist Spray Foundation in five shades; an opulent Dramatic Eye Shadow Quad; Black Sapphire, a matte black nail color; and Ravishing Rose Lip Shine, a vermilion lip stain in a black rose-shaped trinket.

The original Divine Miss M, also known as the Marchesa Luisa Casati, was a favourite of the European fashion and art crowd around the turn of the century. Headstrong and beautiful, she has subsequently proved to be a muse to the likes of everyone from writer Jack Kerouac to designer John Galliano.

Plus, if you order a Boudoir Mist Spray Foundation online now you also get a free Ravishing Rose Lip Shine.
