View this post on Instagram A post shared by Wendy Rowe (@wendyrowe) When you work with clients a number of times, you get to know exactly what works for them, and how to make them look and feel at their best. Sienna Miller always looks gorgeous, no matter what look we go for, but my personal preference are for pared-back, less-is-more makeup, because she’s naturally stunning.

Some of the looks are gorgeous but may need paring down to work in real life, so use the runway images as inspiration and figure out how to wear the look in the real world, or suit it to your style.
