INSPIRATION: “Elegant femininity inspired by Catherine Deneuve and Grace Kelly with an edge of rebellion like Cyndi Lauper,” said Honor designer Giovanna Randall about the look and inspiration. With the venue set up like a Parisian apartment, the idea was to communicate a merge of innocent femininity and bold sexuality.
LOOK: A round-shaped eye combined with a nude matte lip and an overall blended effect. “We wanted the look to be clean and simple so not to distract from the clothes,” said James Boehmer. To keep the face soft, features were kept streamlined by not using mascara.

INSPIRATION: “The look is full glamour — Michelle Pfeiffer from Scarface 1983.” — Christian McCulloch
Eyes
Contrast, Prussian, and Shadowy Lady eyeshadows — blended together and pulled out from the center of the eye along the crease and lower lash lines for a blue gray smoky eye.
Dalliance Mega Metal Eyeshadow (2011) to highlight the inner corners of the eyelids.
Dangerous Cuvee Paint Pot (2011) blended together on the center of the eyelids.
Haute & Naughty Lash in Black with two coats applied to both upper and lower lashes.
Lips
Subculture Lip Pencil to fill in the lips.
Morange lipstick patted over the liner for an orangey red stain.
Face
MAC PRO Cherche Blushcreme and MAC PRO Shadester Sculpting Powder to contour just beneath the cheek bones.
INSPIRATION: “The boys are part bourgeoisie, part rugged. They have swagger, but they are beautiful,” said designer Phillip Lim. Naïve, fresh and with an affluence for dressing, they carry confidence like it’s second nature. Ruling the streets and proving that class is effortless, the Spring/Summer 2011 Phillip Lim man is gorgeous, and flawless-their innate beauty is best expressed through Lim saying, “Put a bow on this gift!”
LOOK: Athletic skin – dewy with flushed cheeks. “They are like school boys – preppy and athletic but post-game they’re heading to dinner,” said lead artist Francelle Daly. The key point is the beautiful skin and the rosy glow of the cheeks.
