We fell in love twice during Fashion Week - once with a certain heart breaker, and once with the glimmering headbands at Marc Jacobs. As it turns out, neither were available once the runways had wrapped, but we can still dream…
You’ll need: Netted metallic fabric.
Bags of flat-backed rhinestones.
Super glue.
Step one: Lay out your rhinestones - face down - on a flat surface.
Step two: Coat the rhinestone backs with superglue.
Step three: Gently press the rhinestone backs onto the fabric. Allow 5 minutes to dry, then begin to layer more rhinestones on your foundation. Don’t over-pile or the band will be too heavy!
Step four: Wear the band with a little white dress and give Lily Donaldson a run for her money… or flip it to the front and make Arden Wohl jealous. We think the headband works especially well inside the Met’s Costume Institute, where the Poiret dresses are screaming for a little glitter.
—our Marc band was made by Kevin Khuong and modeled by Shruti Ganguly
