TOM PECHEUX
BIOGRAPHY

French make-up artist Tom Pecheux is highly sought after for his sophisticated take on Parisian glamour. Throughout a stellar career spanning three decades, he has consistently worked with the finest fashion photographers in the field’s history, such as Mario Testino, Patrick Demarchelier, Mario Sorrenti, Peter Lindbergh, Craig McDean, Inez Van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. Believing that makeup should flatter rather than conceal or embellish, he is highly sought after as a creative consultant and has advised at many of the world’s leading beauty brands.

Pecheux began his career by assisting the legendary makeup artist Linda Cantello, but it was through his close creative relationships with Mario Testino and Carine Roitfeld at the start of the 1990’s that Pecheux established himself as a leading force in makeup. In landmark advertising campaigns for the newly revitalized House of Burberry and later for Gucci, the team formulated a highly recognizable visualization of femininity: powerful and sexually charged, yet vulnerable. Choosing not to mask the entire face with product, Pecheux communicated this aesthetic via a deft play between nudity and coverage in audacious looks where either the eyes or lips were emphasized, or in many cases, model’s faces appeared entirely bare.

Such groundbreaking and much emulated style innovations led to Pecheux succeeding fragrance virtuoso Serge Lutens as Creative Director of Shiseido. In addition to devising their innovative 'Shiseido The Makeup' line, Pecheux was also central to the brand’s pioneering online experiments, launching their interactive Beauty Navigator as early as 2001. By the time the relationship ended in 2006, Pecheux was credited with transforming Shiseido into a modern beauty empire. He is also fêted for his striking runway looks created for leading fashion houses including: Prada, Yves Saint Laurent, Ralph Lauren, Givenchy, Balmain, Marni, Max Mara and Jean-Paul Gaultier. Pecheux is a regular contributor to the most influential fashion titles, particularly Vogue (Italy, Paris, and U.S. editions), Vanity Fair and V magazine. He has also created memorable advertising campaigns for prestigious luxury brands including Yves Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Balmain, Burberry, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Michael Kors and Versace.

In November of 2009, Pecheux became Creative Makeup Director for Estée Lauder, the flagship brand of The Estée Lauder Companies. In his current role, he works with the brand to help set artistic direction for the next generation of Estée Lauder makeup and communicate his point of view on modern beauty to consumers, press, and fashion and beauty influencers.
