Any good Sabrina fan knows Givenchy built his empire on the back—or in this case the tiny waist—of Audrey Hepburn, and his 67-year-old brand has been trading in timeless, classic chic ever since. This year’s Red Line Holiday Collection features the Red Lights palette, a glitter-encrusted case in a quartet of eye colours; Prisme Libre, the maison’s mattifying powder, reimagined as No 10 Sparkling Mousseline; and Rouge Interdit, the iconic brand’s first red lipstick (created by Givenchy himself 30 years ago), studded here with mother-of-pearl for shimmer and shine.

For the limited-edition 2019 Rêve de Kimono Holiday Collection, Clé de Peau collaborated with master kimono-maker Kyoto Tachibana, renowned for his use of Surigata-Yuzen, a method of dying colours and stenciled motifs onto a single sheet of silk. Each separate package is inspired by tatou, a folded paper case designed for wrapping kimonos, and echoes the folds and layers of the kimono itself. Nordstrom.ca

Christian Dior Beauty’s creative director Peter Philips draws inspiration from the dazzle and pop of fireworks to create the Happy 2020 makeup collection.
