Breaking news: Moschino is doing makeup now. Cue the hysteria and frantic Googling from beauty junkies everywhere. And if we could commandeer your attention for a second, our two cents on the collection is that it's so totally adorbs you might just sellout your next-door neighbor to get first dibs on it. Branded with the same irreverent aesthetic and a hint of kitsch — remember the Spongebob dresses and the McDonald's-themed accessories? — Moschino is renowned for; the collection is a limited edition, seven-piece edit of teddy bear-shaped products that take a leaf out of the label's fashion playbook.
Of course, with creative director Jeremy Scott at the helm, you can't expect anything else. Elaborated Scott: "When thinking about the collaboration [with Sephora Collection], I wanted to capture the iconograph of Moschino and there could be no more perfect of an ambassador to do that than our teddy toy." To further paraphrase the designer, the makeup range is a point of entry for fashion fans, especially the younger crowds, who may not be able purchase Moschino's clothes just yet. So if you've been eyeballing a piece of Moschino, make space at the very top of your lustlist for the teddy bear eyeshadow palette (sized to actual soft toy dimensions) with its matching bear-headed brushes, as well as everything else in the collection. Who said big girls can't have makeup toys that'll catapult you to 'queen of the beauty sandpit' status?
Granted, there's no word yet on whether this coveted collection will be making its way to Singapore shores, but we're entreating the patron gods of makeup and crossing our fingers.
Is this the cutest fragrance bottle ever?
