Team CND™ creates latex nails for Vivienne Westwood show
By Helena Biggs | 10 January 2017 | Events, News
Hessian, latex and VINYLUX™ hues rocked the runway on Monday, as Team CND™ lent expertise and creative vision to the Vivienne Westwood AW17/18 presentation at London Men’s Fashion Week.
The dame personally approved the nail concepts courtesy of Marian Newman for CND™ for the ‘ecotricity’ themed show, and Scratch ed, Helena, took a front row seat opposite celebrities including Tinie Tempah and Jaime Winstone courtesy of Sweet Squared.
The show focused on clothing for both man and woman, and featured strong political messages including a focus on climate change and green economy.
Marian and her nail team created a variety of looks, including French tips stuck onto the opposite side of the hand, to stress the message that ‘it doesn’t matter what way you face; you still matter.’
The latex finger puppet creations represented an eco and lies theme and came courtesy of Jennie Nippard, who added to them with fabric from the collection and replicated faces as seen on Vivienne’s outfit, representative of the recycled ethos that was present throughout.
