THE SCOOP: Tadashi Shoji has perfected the design formula of creating sophisticated clothes full of pleating and ruching details. And for the Spring 2010 collection, Shoji relied on his go-to hairstylist and makeup artist, Rodney Cutler and Luc Bouchard, to create looks that fit seamlessly with his ethereal designs.

Cheeks were dusted into a C-shape with pink and peachy shades to give skin that "I just laid out in the sun for a bit" effect. And hair loosely coiled up into a chignon with a few strands left out to make models look like "little fairies."

GET THE LOOK - HAIR:
Began by applying Cutler Volumizing Spray and blow-drying in Redken Workforce 09 Flexibile Volumizing Spray for a dry texture. Comb locks back and brush out for smoothness. Loosely twist the sides into an intricate bun to give off the appearance as though you did it yourself. Bangs are left airy.

GET THE LOOK - MAKEUP: All makeup by MAC. Smooth Face and Body Foundation over the body and top it off with Mineralize Skinfinish Natural. Warm up cheeks with Powder Blushes in Pink Swoon and Peaches. Coat the top lashes with Pro Lash in Black and press in Pro Eye Kohl in Power Surge into bottom lash line for that "flick of light glow." Use fingers to apply a combination of Lipgelée in Amber Russe and Limited Edition See Thru Lip Color in Not So Shine for a soft pout.
