With a fall-winter 2015 collection inspired by Marilyn Monroe, the hair and makeup looks at Max Mara were also influenced by the 1950s. Marilyn’s more bookish side was channeled through tousled curls in a retro updo. Eyes popped with a winged eye and full lashes while the lip was finished in a pouty pink.
