The makeup for fall 2009 at Tracy Reese’s showing was soft and subtle with flushed winter cheeks. The lip color was pale pink with a touch of gloss. Lead makeup artist for the show, Charlotte Willer for Maybelline New York, used a neutral color palette to complement the collection.
It was an emotional day for designer Tracy Reese, whose mother recently passed away. “I would like to dedicate this show to my greatest fan and most ardent supporter, my Mom, Patricia Reese. Her vibrant spirit lives on in me and in the lives of all she touched.”
