Hairstyling and make-up with Flora Contraffatto for the Brooke Magazine shoot

Milan, 17 February 2022

A collaboration between our salon and the prestigious magazine, Brooke Magazine, enhanced by the presence of the photographer Fernando Arias starring Flora Contrafatto.

Actress, dancer, TV presenter and model Flora Contrafatto (Instagram @floracontrafatto) requested the services and advice of COLONNA Metropolitan Beauty Makers for a special photo shoot, published by Brooke Magazine. (Instagram @revista_brooke).

Il salone è stato contattato proprio da Flora, per seguirla e consigliarla nello styling e make-up per l’editoriale di gennaio di Brooke Magazine.

Una collaborazione inaspettata e piacevole, che il nostro team ha abbracciato con dedizione e motivazione, gestendo le varie richieste di Flora, in linea con il mood del servizio fotografico, sviluppato dal fotografo Fernando Arias (Instagram @fernandoarias_photo).

For the actress' hairstyle, we were inspired by romantic and sensual styling allo stesso tempo con un perfetto equilibrio di onde e volumi. Mentre per esaltare e sottolineare le linee sinuose del viso e lo sguardo profondo di Flora, abbiamo preferito un make-up con un leggero smokey-eyes effect.

A hymn to beauty and Mediterranean femininity, against the metropolitan Milanese backdrop of Porta Volta, classic and modern coming together to best represent iconic Italian style.

Milan Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2020

Milan, 15 June 2019

In partnership with Redken, COLONNA Metropolitan Beauty Makers collaborated on the hairstyle of models for the fashion show of designer Dorian Tarantini at the helm of the brand M1992, in the impressive deconsecrated Basilica of Sant'Eufemia in Milan, during the fashion week for menswear which was held from 14 to 17 June.

The hair style of the models was very diversified, ranging from the well-known 60s rockabilly style with a high topknot modelled with gel and then brought upwards creating a wide curl with the fingers and stopped with hairspray, to punk with coloured manes and shaved hair at the sides, while for the models the hairstyles had an androgynous style.
A contrast between past and modern was certainly reflected in the designers' outfits.

Backstage photo shoot spring 2019

Milan, 20 May 2019

COLONNA Metropolitan Beauty Makers organised a photo shoot in May, turning our customers into models for a day.

A tale of different moments of Milanese life from which we take inspiration!

We created different situations using four different locations within walking distance of our salon. Despite the rainy weather, our models were fantastic, despite not being professionals, they participated with energy and initiative, having fun with us reconstructing this typical Milanese day, from the moment of waking up until the evening ended back home for a relaxed evening with friends.

The locations used were: a flat on the 18th floor of Via Turati, an office at the marketing agency H+ , of Via Varese, the well-known Milanese venue Radetsky, and, of course, our salon while we take care of them, their hair and their beauty.

The video below summarises the backstage of the day. The experience we had was very exciting and we will certainly do more shoots of the same kind in the future. We would like to thank all our model clients for their availability, and the owners of the different locations.
