MAC are celebrating the 25th anniversary of their iconic Viva Glam lipstick by recreating Ru Paul’s campaign with model Winnie Harlow. For 25 years the brand have been raising funds to battle against HIV and AIDS. To date, over $500m has been raised. Winnie says:
“I was inspired to recreate the original Viva Glam campaign after my hairdresser, Jay Brumant, showed me the beautiful images. Working in fashion, I’m surrounded by many types of beauty, and I strongly feel that the contributions of the LGBTQ+ community are both prominent & embraced in the fashion world. I remember being invited to my first Vogue Ball. It was invigorating to see so many people from different walks of life come together and celebrate themselves freely. Ever since then, I have loved & always wanted to try to recreate a “drag moment”. I knew that if I was ever going to attempt it I would need to embrace an ICONIC look! Who is more iconic than RuPaul in the MAC Viva Glam campaign? So when I was in full “regalia” post Adam Burrell’s make-up magic, my friend & New York photographer, Gabriel Perez Silva, helped me recreate the images, and that’s how this costume came to be! I’m so honoured to follow in the footsteps of amazing artists like Lady Gaga, Elton John, and Ru celebrating Viva Glam’s 25th Anniversary alongside raising awareness for the MAC Viva Glam.”
