RAFW Trends Spring Summer 2011/12

Here are the 6 major makeup trends (as I see them) to come out of Rosemount Australian Fashion Week for next Spring/Summer. Each trend has some really wearable elements, as well as some fun, but not so wearable (I'm looking at you Alex Perry and Bianca Spender!). Beautiful, polished and satiny skin was, as always, a theme that ran throughout each show.

Don't forget that you can click on each image for a closer look. Enjoy!
