The backstage hairstyling team for Betsey Johnson was lead by Thomas Dunkin for Sebastian. This particular show was held offsite at the Altman Building on Sunday, February 14th.



Thomas says of the hair, "we went with a country girl meets Brigit Bardot look that was messy, fun and flirtatious, fitting with Betsey's collection."



Hmmmm.... so what do you think? View the entire collection here.

While covering backstage at Andy & Debb, I had the opportunity to discuss the hair look with Phyto's lead hairstylist, David Cruz. He stated that the goal was to achieve a beautiful, perfect texture, that's shiny and healthy, but with very little volume- center parted and tucked a little behind the ears.


The hair was prepped with Phytovolume Actif Volumizing Spray with a mix of Phyto 7 Daily Hydrating Cream and then blown out. The ends of the hair were then flat ironed, section by section. To add shine and control flyaways, the hair was finished with Phyto Professional Glossing Cream from roots to ends.



Easy enough, right? Definitely a look you could achieve using these products, along with the right tools! The complete runway look is available here.

I love Valente Frazier- like SERIOUSLY! I've had the opportunity to see him at a celebrity makeup symposium a few years ago and found him to be such a huge inspiration. And isn't that what life is about- using your gifts to inspire others? He shared with us his journey - the steps and the many risks he'd taken to achieve his dream, and I can't tell you all how much I love meeting people who are living their dreams! And, after watching his makeup demonstration, I was blown away! So now you understand why I had to include him in my fashion week coverage!



And just so you know, he's the Emmy Award-winning makeup artist for such celebrities as Iman and Tyra Banks; and his work has been featured in Elle, Essence and O, The Oprah Magazine. This fashion week he led the IMAN Cosmetics backstage beauty team in creating the looks for the ARISE African Collective fashion show.



Most notable was the strong, sexy IMAN eye look, sheer sexy lip and bronzed cheeks. Complete looks from the show are available here!

I became well versed in all Wella products while apprenticing at Vidal Sassoon and so I was curious to see what the artistic team would create for DKNY's runway show. I was told that the fall collection "encapsulates New York art and soul, reflecting the convergence of creative worlds and individual style that is the spirit of New York City". The hair look was a "refined side-swept ponytail projecting a sexy equestrian vibe with a subtly strong, yet not too masculine look".



Wella Professionals lead colorist Eva Scrivo directed a team of colorists to handpaint extensions using Blondor, Koleston Perfect and ColorTouch to match the natural color palette of the models' hair- ranging from medium brown to a spectrum of blonde shades. Extensions were then woven in to soften the look by placing the paler pieces in the front where the sun would naturally lighten the hair.



Eugene Souleiman (top photo), Global Creative Director for Wella Professionals, led the styling team by creating the low side ponytail using System Professionals Volumagic to give the side part direction. System Professional Hypercurl was used on the length of the ponytail for separation and added texture. Additional looks from the runway show are available here.

Are you all impressed? Love the look?

I can't begin to tell you how much I love Zoya Nail Polish and so covering nails backstage at Peter Som was like a dream come true! And so after arriving at Milk Studios last Saturday, I learnd that Som was inspired by the film Taking Woodstock by Ang Lee, and therefore created a collection of texture, prints, florals, beading, checks, tweeds and knits.



The nail color of choice was "Charity" (pictured on the model's hands above) which is described as a "metallic dusty purple with magical gilded highlights". Erin Giddings of Zoya stated, "they wanted to go with a neutral, but with tone to it- they didn't want to go with a nude. They selected Charity, which has a gold shimmer underneath..."



Lead manicurist Jackie Saulsbery prepped the nails using the Lemon Dream Home Spa collection followed by the Zoya Color Lock System. The nail look perfectly complemented the fall 2010 collection, which can be viewed in full here.

Love the nail color? Would you wear it?
