Optix : GALA, LACOSTE & CHANEL ambassador

Styling a la CONNIE Eisenmann was served up in various GALA magazine issues. She travelled to Valencia and Marseilles with photographer and GoSee member LEO KRUMBACHER to work on the productions. Furthermore, she also collaborated on Lars PILLMANN c/o KLEIN PHOTOGRAPHEN’s production in Morocco for the latest issue of FIVE TO NINE. This month, she will be in the South of France, working on a LACOSTE (Home Collection) production with Lars.

LUCI Schomborg carried out styling for client VODAFONE (international PR material, Gerd Linnekogel) and is currently travelling in Spain for GLOBETROTTER.

This year, make-up artist MARTIN Schmid was crowned as a CHANEL ambassador . He travels Germany and Austria as the press make-up artist. He works closely with Susan Sterling, Chanel’s international make-up artist and spokeswoman. All the ambassadors meet in Paris twice a year, where they learn all the new looks from her. Martin ensures that the four annual looks are communicated to fashion and beauty magazines.

The latest A/W look is inspired by an imaginary garden. Mystical garden scenes with beautiful camellias set the tone. Coco Chanel was once asked: *What do you eat for breakfast?*, she answered: *Madame, in the morning I have a camellia and in the evening an orchid.* (taken from *Chanel Solitaire* by Claude Delay).
