Valli was asked about the collection:
How did you and M·A·C decide on collaborating? Why beauty now?
A: I started working with M·A·C almost 10 years ago and since the beginning they understood and supported my vision as a designer. To celebrate this long standing relationship, we thought it would be great to create a collection that was one-of-a-kind, more of a collector’s edition! I’m known for my dresses and with this collection you can dress your lips in Giambattista Valli.
Why did you choose to focus solely on lip products for the collection? Describe your involvement with the process.
A: Lipstick can revolutionize a woman’s look. A lipstick shade or texture can radically change the way you are feeling in the moment. Makeup not only completes a look, it often makes the look. I love the idea of dressing up your lips in couture colors. The matte, highly pigmented shades are very modern and contemporary for a daytime look and then you can add a touch of the lip glaze over the top for a more sophisticated evening look.
How did looks from past collections inspire each lipstick and lipgloss?
A: Each of the lipstick colors were inspired by the colors of dresses from my past collections. The colors come from pieces of fabric from each dress.
Which shade is your favorite in the collection and why?
A: I can’t name just one! I love them all. There is a shade in the collection for every woman. I love the unexpected so I feel like every woman can wear any of the shades.
