Star Wars-Inspired Nails by Zoya – 2015
Photo: © Helen Oppenheim
The nails by Zoya at the Mara Hoffman Fall 2015 New York Fashion Week show were inspired by the sunset scenes from the “Star Wars” movie, the theme for the show. The colors were Earthones, and had a ’70s vibe, like the collection. Alicia Torello, the lead manicurist, started with Zoya Ziv, then added Brittany for the round sun. “To create shapes,” she advised, “start at the bottom with Taylor, going from light to dark. Make natural swipes diagonally down the nail with Aubrey and finish with Normani , with quick natural swipes across the bottom.” The lines can be a little messy if you want to try this yourself. Hair from the show coming soon. Stay tuned …

Lovely deconstructed destroyed braid at the Mara Hoffman Spring 2015 Fashion Week show was inspired by a Joshua Tree, which grows in the Mojave Dessert. It speaks to the effortless, bohemian girl, according to Nick Irwin, Global Creative Director for Catwalk by TIGI. And was also inspired by the easy, breezy vibe of the Californian desert and what the designer, Mara Hoffman, calls “lightness” as she evolves into a more refined look.

CommentPhotographing Fashion Week Backstage – 2013
Captured by Janet Pytowski photographing backstage at Mara Hoffman during Mercedes-Benz NY Fall Fashion Week 2013. This was just before my camera started playing games with me. Fortunately, I got a few shots in before. You can see them – and photos from the other shows I managed to stay backstage long enough to get the photos I needed – when I post my Fall 2013 photos, later. Have to wait until they are published. Although I am thinking of a way to post earlier. Stay tuned …
Just so’s you know, it is not easy to get in backstage to photo, I can’t always stay through First Looks or, better for more space, through the show backstage, and I try to only photo interesting hair, not ponytails, which so many designers offer, including some major ones. Also, I give a full page per show so, unless I think I can get the photos I need, I don’t cover the show.
