WWD reports renowned Makeup artist Francois Nars opens first store in NYC. A few steps from Magnolia's and next door to long time friend Marc Jacobs, the store will be located 413 Bleeker Street.
"Nars credits Calvin Klein — with whom he worked on Obsession print ads and backstage
at fashion shows — with popularizing pushing the envelope sexually in advertising. “A
very sexual, loaded image worked for him so well, and he did it in such a great way, in a
very sophisticated and elegant way. I feel that makeup is also such an incredible, sexy
accessory. You know, women put on makeup to flirt and to really attract men.”
Despite all this talk of sex, Nars claims to be quite shy, confessing that fan adulation at
personal appearances, while pleasant, is still a little overwhelming. “It’s not my favorite
thing. I’m not like an actor that loves to be in front of a camera. I would rather be behind
the camera. I’m more like the painter in his studio — that’s where I’m the happiest, when
I’m behind my camera or creating my colors, putting on opera music. I’m not a very public,
social [person].”
Being a long time fan myself, I know i will be there with bells on to get my orgasm.... and I mean the blush!!! look for my review coming soon! in the meantime, you can find his Spring 2011 collection Narscosmetics.com
