12 women, all nationalities, are body painted and styled as the essence of each month in a calendar. 

The January model is an Angel symbolizing hope and new beginning. The October model is a paradox. She is Cinderella in Halloween. And the December model is a symbol of a Christmas wish. Inspired by the individual zest in every woman, the creative team emphasized the inimitable qualities by embellishing female curves and features, and allowing their pure essence to radiate through the paint.

 

Creating each month began, and continued to grow, through many creative concept meetings. We wanted each look to be symbolic of nature and become a character that women can relate to and rejoice about. We drew inspiration from cultures, fairy tales, natural elements, exquisite fabric, and original fine art and, of course, the model.

 

 The hair and make-up is strongly interrelated and inspired by the body art. One inventive and original collaboration was the month of July. Summer is adored for its long warm nights filled with romance and mystery. We wanted to depict the silhouette of a city and night sky. Visions of a refreshing martini and sexy lipstick came to mind. 

Svetlana had created an extravagant martini shape hair-piece on a tray with the spilling liquid all made out of hair. The sleek airbrushed mask with glamorous detail was the ultimate make-up for summer fantasy.
