The Marques’Almeida Girl: Fresh from their recent win of the coveted LVMH prize in Paris, London-based design duo Marta Marques and Paolo Almeida will explore the beauty behind the brand with Terry Barber, M.A.C Director of Makeup Artistry, looking at how beauty has influenced and inspired their past collections in a talk hosted by Sarah Mower.
