"Alla Prima" is an artist's phrase, which means "to have your materials ready". A woman who wears make-up could also be considered an accomplished artist as she paints her face every day. As any woman knows, you need to have your materials and your canvas ready before painting… that's where SFMOMA's Alla Prima comes in.
The inspiration for this look comes from the SFMOMA's interior space -- their beautiful black and grey granite striped staircase.
