Your Favorite Royal Couple

Your Favorite Royal Couple starts with a choice. It is Valentine’s Day, and before any styling begins you pick which pair of royals to dress. The options are fairy-tale couples: a pair of winter wizards, a princess and prince from a distant desert kingdom, or the rulers of a great sea power.

Each couple brings its own natural palette. Icy blues and silver suit the wizards, warm jewel tones suit the desert pair, and sea greens and pearl shades suit the ocean royals. Whichever you pick, they are being prepared as participants in a fashion show, so the looks should be dramatic rather than everyday.

The wardrobe matches the occasion: luxurious dresses for the princess and gorgeous outfits for the prince, with makeup, hair and accessories to complete each look. Because it is Valentine’s Day, the strongest results treat the pair as one presentation — two outfits that clearly belong to the same romantic story.

1. Choose your favourite royal couple.
2. Pick a luxurious dress for the princess.
3. Choose a gorgeous outfit for the prince.
4. Finish both with makeup, hair and accessories for the fashion show.

Let the couple's setting choose the colours. A winter, desert or sea theme gives you a palette that ties both outfits together.
