First time ever, you’re aiming for red wine lips. At Giambattista Valli models wore the glossiest, wine-iest lips you’ve ever seen. Lips that had seen the bottom of a glass of Nero d’Avola or four and then seen off a glazed doughnut. As party lips go, these are as glammy as it gets, requiring regular re-glossings and quite a lot of sly glances in the back of a spoon. But they’re worth it.
