Shiseido Signs Deal With Italian Opera House

Faces at La Scala will wear makeup line.

Shiseido signed with the Italian opera house La Scala to be its lead partner, according to reports.

For the next three years, the Milan-based cast of artists, dancers and actors are set to wear Shiseido’s makeup line. To introduce its forthcoming 2011 collection, Shiseido has installed a retrospective exhibition in the theater’s lobby that showcases the brand’s advertising campaigns from 1870 through today.

Also, to promote the partnership, Shiseido has realized an advertising campaign that features black-and-white images of opera divas Maria Callas and Shirley Verrett applying make-up, sourced from La Scala’s archives.

The Shiseido Group-owned brand Carita is also set to contribute backstage, offering performers a selection of its skin care, body and hair products, according to reports.
