THE SCOOP: Ports 1961 designer Tia Cibani is an adventurer -- exploring new realms every season through her thematic designs.
For her Fall 2010 fashion collection, Cibani sent models down the runway in strong, feminine pieces inspired by fearless aviator, Amelia Earhart. And the hair and makeup team rounded out the looks with fresh and effortless beauty.
Romero Jennings was heavily influenced by the androgynous elements of the collection. So, he created a look that was pretty, yet subtle consisting of blonde brows, bronzed lids, lush lashes and glossy lips. "It's beautiful and elegant so that the focus is on the clothes," said Jennings.
Pearson Knight added his personal touch by reincarnating the '80s perm for coils that were va-va-voluminous! "It's a really, pretty strong look. It's soft, but says a lot," said Knight.
M2M's Myrdith Leon-McCormack used a new slate gray nail polish (set for release in March) called Catwalk.
