Backstage at Milan Fashion Week Redken’s global styling director Guido’s, created a look for Dolce & Gabbana’s fall collection that made us swoon. While the theme was fit for a queen, Guido had more of an “Italian princess” in mind when crafting this look. “This elegant style is another variation of the Dolce & Gabbana woman this season, playing on that Sicilian idea of softness, romance, and a certain cinematic, womanly beauty. I took inspiration from the idea of an iconic woman with a kind of natural Italian allure- think the actress Sofia Loren or the women in the 1960 film la Dolce Vita.”

If you are trying to create this look at home, perfection is not necessary; it’s shine that will be your best accessory. “I did not want a look greasy look – just a soft, glossy finish,” says Guido.
