THE SCOOP: Herve Leger by Max Azria is not for the shy gals -- body-conscious dresses with eye-catching embellishments are the name of the game. Think grown-up glamour without the stuffiness. In keeping with this idea, the hair and makeup looks also had a sophisticated-but-youthful twist. "We're doing a matte, red lip," said Butler. "It's quite sharp -- not rounded at all. Like the old school glamour that was very strong." But to keep it from overtaking the girls' faces, Butler did little makeup elsewhere and skipped mascara.
While the makeup was quite sophisticated, the hair was purposefully undone and youthful, and in fact inspired by the way the models show up backstage. "It's an undone ponytail -- not extremely brushed or worked," said Recine.
GET THE LOOK - MAKEUP: All products by MAC. Butler used Lady Danger Lipstick and defined the eyes with Technakohl Liner in Plank, a milk-chocolate brown.

GET THE LOOK - HAIR: First Recine sprayed Moroccanoil's new Luminous Hair Spray (launches next month) through the hair. Then, using only his hands, he formed the hair back into a low ponytail and scrunched the tail with his hands to give it undone texture.
GET THE LOOK - NAILS: All products by CND. Fingernails were kept clean and natural with a sheen, courtesy of Solar Oil. On the toes Wingle used Desert Suede which is an opaque nude color that "look like tan pantyhose, but shiny. It goes with any skin tone."
