Some are more out-there than others, but what would you expect? It's couture!
We look forward to the couture collections for so many reasons--the pure fantasy of it all, the exquisite details, and of course, the often equally as fantastical beauty looks. We've already broken down the gorgeous looks at Chanel (left), but here's a look at the rest of the collections. From elaborate hair accessories to full-face makeup, click through for our favorite beauty looks from the spring 2012 couture collections.
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. Click through to see the best beauty looks from the Paris Fall 2011 couture shows. *Photos: Imaxtree
Paris couture week is officially over. In case you were too focused on Raf Simons' and Kimye's couture debuts to take everything in, those dilligent couturiers showed some pretty great collections. Nothing compares to couture, a thriving and important part of the fashion industry. The fall 2012 collections were full of so much delicate, restrained gorgeousness it was tough to pick our favorites (especially when it came to Dior and Valentino), but we did our best. So, click through for one last look (well, until all the celebs start wearing them) at the 25 dresses we found ourselves gawking at--in a good way.
