OPI offers a new take on classic neutrals with must-have hues in the Swiss Collection. These highly anticipated lacquers feature rich shades sure to become the new standard basics, or “new-trals” for Spring/Summer 2010.
“Switzerland provided the inspiration for this season, with a backdrop of snow-peaked mountains, lush glacial valleys, and glittering lakes,” says Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive Vice President & Artistic Director. “With luxurious hues across the colour spectrum, the Swiss Collection features jewelled tones from ruby red to shimmering gold and everything in between.”
This season, deep shades of rich colour become the new basics, from dark green (Cuckoo for this Colour) to glowing red (Colour So Hot It Berns). Metallic shades of exquisite pewter (Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous) and gold (Glitzerland) offer touches of effortless elegance to every wardrobe.
“The Swiss Collection features the same relaxed luxury that walked the fashion runways, where timeless shades of black, camel and cream were met with a wealth of jewelled emerald, sapphire, and gold,” explains Suzi. “Wearing these colours on fingers and toes will accessorise the season’s must-have pieces – from masculine-inspired tailored jackets contrasted with ultra-feminine dresses to beautiful bohemian garments with toughened touches of leather.”
The stand-out new shades (as sampled by beauty media at the Swiss Collection launch) are green-grey-blue Ski Teal We Drop (pictured below), stunning pewter Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous, and crisp burgundy William Tell Me About OPI.
