Any news on upcoming fall collections?

ETA: I found some pictures on MUA --

Ooh, nice pics! I think the only one I'd be interested in getting though is the blue/green one, all the other colors just seem like repeats. I really wish they would create some new colors and keep them around for awhile. Nothing overly MAC-ish, since they are Stila, but something that's a bit different than what they've done in the past.

They're up on the Stila website now.

The look very nice, but I have never been able to get into the Stila palettes because the blushes are always too light for me. Oh well, more money to save.

I wonder how similar the two warm ones are to the OOOOLD sage and peach palettes of similar design, back from the days of the super-crumbly palettes? I love those two, and still have them. If these are too similar, I'll have to pass, though I'm very into supporting the new non-EL version of Stila as much as possible. Hrm.

Yeah, I want Stila to rebound. They have fallen from glory, but I still love 'em.

Stila has closed all counters here in Hong Kong, but lucky I might check out the new collection @ Singapore this weekend !

Lucky you! I asked today in strawberrynet if they were going to have the new fall collection, which I'm absolutely in love with, and they said they wouldn't.

From what I can tell the shades in these ones are a bit cooler (esp. the green palette) and not as golden toned. They really didn't grab me, and I'm a green girl

The blue/teal one though is absolutely stunning. It will probably look crap on me but I'm going to try and get my hands on it - the middle tealish shade is really gorgeous and unique for Stila

I have purchased nearly EVERYTHING Stila for years now but I've got to say that I'm not feeling these palettes at all. The colors look blah and the necklace agate thingies are gimmicky and silly imho. Now I haven't seen these palettes in real life so maybe that will change my mind. It just seems to me like Stila is flailing around right now trying to find their makeup identity.

I really wish Stila would get back to the basics of what made it great (for me anyway). Beautiful and lasting shimmery eye shadows, sticky lip glaze, pretty blushes and awesome convertible colors.

The last time they released new convertible colors was in 2003 (Lillium and Gerbera). Ooops, I take that back, they released Fuschia since then I believe. I'd buy new CC's in a heartbeat! There are only around 12 all together and I can think of many new colors I'd like to have. Imagine how gorgeous a line of metallic CC's would be for Fall, sheer metallics that could be worn alone or blended with other blush-gold, silver, copper, bronze.

I'm probably in the minority here but I miss the trios too, cardboard packaging and all. A few months ago I got sent one that had been exclusively available in Asia (by Stila for a messed up website order) and it is beautiful, I wear it all the time. The colors are gorgeous and not the same old Stila colors at all! The eye shadow texture is lovely. I WISH they did more of that type of thing here!

Just read this on MUA (source):

According to today's Womens Wear Daily, Stila has a new CEO, Laurie McCartney, who is going back to the original Stila roots that Jeanine Lobell created back in the 90s. She is bringing back eye glazes in a pen, and revamping the formula, and calling it Eyelighter. She is bringing back the Stila girl to packaging, too. Also creating a lip and cheek stain called Cherry Crush, to debut for Spring 2008. They are also going back to creating eye shadows (YAY) and will release 56 new shadows for Spring 2008!

Oh Thank GOODNESS! Stila has been so sad since EL dropped them and I was just hoping they would get back to what made them awesome. They used to be so cutting edge in a wearable way (like the CCs although I can't wear most of them, and the AOS Powders were out well before BB's Shimmerbricks or even MSF). And 56 eyeshadows! I wonder if that includes shades in palettes and trios? Probably so because I can't imagine any company releasing 56 new singles permenantly. Either way, I'm excited! Stila's eyeshadow formula is the best I've ever tried I

their shadows!

 

[Beauty Mark]

56 is a gigantic number of shadows to release at once, but I have to say it's exciting. They do have good stuff

 

[silverbelle282]

well this is very exciting! i'm glad i looked stila up here and found this out!!! i actually have wanted to have something stila for a very long time. i had been watching their collections this year, and i even tried out the spring eyeshadow trio's (in the teals and the mauves palettes) and NONE looked good on me. i recently actually purchased "the perfect face kit." i love this bad boy and you can get it at sephora for only $45. it comes with kitten eyeshadow (which to me is like retrospeck, with a better formula), a mini black smudgepot, a brush, a convertible color, a mini mascara, and a full sized lip glaze. so far, i'm in love. i can't wait for their new stuff!!!

[wild child]

I wish Stila would be more creative and come up with something new during the holidays. The deluxe sets sound just like last years. And a bronzing set in the winter? Wouldn't it make more sense to come out with that in the summer? The only thing I might pick up is the gift of glaze since I don't own any lipglazes.

 

[misswillow]

I ended up getting the Laguna palette...and love it

As with the palettes of old, the shadows are a beautiful texture and well pigmented. The thing I love about this is also that the colours are a bit more unique than most of the recent Stila palettes - the mid teal-ish blue is particularly stunning.

I actually bought more stila before EL took it over. Since EL had it, they had too many collections and just seemed to have the same old colors. Too many palettes too. I liked the single colors better. Stila always had eyeshadow singles in colors you didn't see everywhere. So I for one am so excited that Stila is going back to it's roots. I can't wait.

 

[iheartcolor]

Can someone tell me what this trio is, where it was sold? I think I love it, but I would rather see it in person first.

Thanks!
