Analysis of NARS work with Vogue Beauty

From what I've researched, its clear to see that the brand NARS and Francois have a close relationship with VOGUE, having been featured in Vogue Beauty editorials numerous times across the world. The style of work produced in these editorials is much more artistic and fashion forward than the looks I've seen on the catwalk and in advertising campaigns. The editorial beauty looks created are much more avant-garde and seem to take catwalk trends and exaggerate them to create interesting provocative editorial stories.

In keeping with the NARS ethos, Francois often works with models ranging in ethnicities.

Vogue Beauty Stories

The house style of the Vogue Beauty editorials are fairly traditional in terms of fashion editorial layout. A beauty story will focus around a specific trend or a group of similar trends from the same season. The beauty story will feature 3-4 images which can consist of 3-4 different looks. The first image featured in the story will usually be adorned with the 'Vogue Beauty' logo swell as the beauty story title.
