Pure PROVOCATION • Peter Philips’s first big break in beauty came courtesy of Mickey Mouse. On a Sunday afternoon shoot with fellow Belgian photographer Willy Vanderperre, the Christian Dior Makeup creative and image director drew a grinning, open-mouth cartoon of the iconic character onto the face of a male model. Juxtaposed against the dark styling, the surprising contrast catapulted Philips into stardom. Reunited over the course of two days for ELLE, the pair created a portfolio of beauty looks once again focused on shocking touches.
