Planning: 1950's cover initial ideas

Makeup + hair

For the makeup and hair I knew that I definitely wanted the model to wear red lipstick from the off. However I did not know much about the fashion and makeup of this time so I decided to research some of the classic looks.

I went on to look at makeup looks that were typical of this era and every model I found had the same makeup this was thick winged eyeliner and red lipstick. It is pretty simplistic and easy to recreate.

I found that most of the hairstyles consisted of tight styled curled with large embellishments in the hair so I will ensure to find an accessory for the hair

 Clothing:

I decided to have a look on clothing apps for inspiration on 1950's dresses. I decided to look on popular shopping apps as well as second hand selling sites. Here is a collection of dresses I found for inspiration. From this I decided I definitely wanted to use a polka dot dress in my cover as I feel it encapsulates the 1950's era the best

In the end I was not able to complete this cover because of schedule issues with the model however I started forming idea for an alternative cover
