THE SCOOP: Rebecca Taylor's Fall 2011 collection is full of flowy dresses, tailored jackets and coats, and a few chunky knits. The look was definitely '70s, and so was the hair and makeup.
Michishita, lead hairstylist for Cutler and Redken, created smooth, shiny roots that flared out into tight waves.
"I wanted the skin to be luminous, with a sculpted cheek and a smoky, metallic slate eye," Sil Bruinsma told StyleList. He paired the sexy eye makeup with burgundy stained lips that got a pop of gloss on top, just before the girls walked the runway.

GET THE LOOK - HAIR: All products by Cutler and Redken 5th Avenue. The team smoothed the roots with Redken Fashion Work Versatile Working Spray, then used Cutler Volumizing Spray on the rest of the hair before creating waves with a triple-barrel curling iron.
GET THE LOOK - NAILS: The OPI team painted the models' nails a chocolate-brown shade called Suzi Loves Cowboys from the brand's soon-to-launch Texas collection.
