Alexander Wang:

Hair (Guido Palau for Redken): This has to be the craziest hair we’ve ever seen Wang do. Palau had a bunch of extensions dyed the color of model Irina Kravchenko’s hair; Wang loved her hair color when she walked for him last season–it was dubbed “cognac.” Palau wanted the models’ hair to look “cloned” and have a futuristic effect. He essentially “took away the girls’ personalities” by slicking everyone’s hair back and then making the red extensions into a wrapped ponytail, which fit perfectly through holes cut through hoods in the garments.

Makeup (Diane Kendal for MAC): Kendal warned that this isn’t really a look that will translate to real life–the super contoured matte eye (grey shadow in the contour and grey “grease” up to the brow) made the models’ eyes look a bit hollowed out.

Nails (Jan Arnold for CND): The color on the nails creeped us out a bit, but the technique was pretty interesting. Arnold used a fan brush to make an almost streaky, gradient, matte look in a sandstone color (Impossibly Plush). She had used the same technique on her own nails, but done in a metallic grey it looked much more real world and less runway.
