Ayer, por fin fui a ver la nueva película de los Juegos del Hambre. La verdad es que tenía muchas ganas y después de haber leído los libros de la saga de Suzanne Collins, tengo que decir que la historia es bastante fiel aunque se echa de menos alguna escena.
Yesterday, I finally went to watch the new film of The Hunger Games. I was willing to go, even more after having read the Suzanne Collins books which story is really well adapted to the cinema although I have missed some scenes.
As a trilogy follower, I was happy with the film but as a fashion lover I was absolutely astonished most of the time with the amazing costumes which, form my point of vue, deserve the Oscar. We will have to wait for it.

Anyway, the most important character to talk about concerning her look is Effie Trinket and that's why I am focusing on her. Watching her was like assisting to a McQueen's catwalk and not it's not by chance, the costume designer had worked with him and wanted to make a hommage to the creator. Pure theatricality matching with her mood. Make-up, wigs, imposible shoes and the rest of the accesories are acting for a complete result which is far from the disguise that I was expecting before watching it.

Special mention goes for the false lashes from Paperself, faboulous creations perfect to complete the make-up. By the way, the make-up artist Ve Neill has really make a good work on it and some ideas couldn't be more in, like the bi-color lips showed on various Autumn-Winter 2013-2014 catwalks.

Images talk themselves, Trish Sumerville was in charge of the supervision of the characters looks and she has succeed to the tiniest detail. The costumes of Catching Fire improves on its predecessor, The Hunger Games. Actually, it has inspired the collection Capitol Couture signed by Sumerville, on sale at Net-a-Porter; interesting but, nothing to do with the Effie's haute couture closet.
