Disco Days – a beauty story by Victoria Bond and Natasja Fourie

Beauty, Feature

MAKE-UP artist Victoria Bond goes full throttle drawing inspiration from Pat Cleveland’s twinkling, disco-era days to transform the gorgeous Grace Sharp into a dancing queen.

With a sedulous attention to detail she plays with reds, blues and greens against stark hyper real skin, whilst hairstylist Paul Donovan creates a strong androgyny vibe with a pop of colour giving Grace Sharp a Newton edge. Natasja Fourie and Victoria explored Guy Bourdin’s vintage beauty campaigns to create the look and feel.
