New York Fashion Week – Experience on the World’s Fashion Runways

Not every makeup artist can say that they have worked during New York Fashion Week.

Kasia has participated in one of the world’s most important fashion events on numerous occasions, helping create runway looks alongside international teams of makeup artists. She worked with the teams of Danessa Myricks and James Vincent, for Art Partner, an agency representing international stars such as Anja Rubik.

This experience is still reflected today in the training programs Kasia delivers at Makeup Manufacture Academy.
