Hasta La Ideas

Stocking stuffer alert! Dutch designer Marcel Wanders has brought his witty brand of antique futurism to cosmetics in a collaboration with M·A·C. The Estée Lauder-owned brand recently introduced M·A·C and Marcel Wanders, a limited-edition collection that includes mascara, lip glosses, lipsticks, and makeup brushes in high-gloss black casings that echo the balusterial curves Wanders has deployed in interior design projects such as Miami’s Mondrian South Beach. Those who favor his faceted pieces for Kartell will want to snap up a mirrored compact of “sheer mystery powder” (pictured at right), whose scrollwork flourishes are echoed in a glam tapestry clutch that ties with silk ribbons. Meanwhile, we hear that the collection’s top seller is a $30 wearable metal pendant that flips open to reveal a solid version of M·A·C’s sweetened floral scent, Air of Style.
