Another couture season is behind us, leaving in its wake more Dior rumors, a rare Alaia show, and lots of strange hair accessories.
It was a gorgeous week for beauty, though. If nails were less-than-spectacular–we’re moving towards a more ladylike manicure, perhaps–the eyes were artful and strong. Lips were mostly neutral with a few notable exceptions. And hair ran the gamut from punky to slick to softly romantic.

Runway shows are all about giving the audience an idea of a designer’s influence. Hair often completes a look, and many times can be more riveting than the clothes themselves. During this couture week, designers were obviously bored by the limitations of hair alone and added adornments, ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous.

Obviously couture is all about the clothes. However, many designers also get pretty fanciful with hair and makeup, too, which makes the whole package really fun to watch.

Finding a new creative director for a brand is a painstaking process. Not only do you want someone whose aesthetic lines up with the brand’s image, but there’s contracts, availability, and a ton of paperwork before a collection sets foot on the runway.
In this process, sometimes bad decisions are made. Like Alessandra Falchinetti at Gucci or Marco Zanini at Halston, short lived, unprofitable directorships are plenty in the fashion industry. Not every decision puts a Giles at Ungaro, nor is every rumor about a Pugh at Mugler.
