Nails were painted pink and lined with silver around the cuticles. Such a fashionable touch.

Vampire meets couture. Black lips and hauntingly eerie eye contacts lined this runway. Floral wreaths softened the looks.

Touches of neon in green and pink were found at Dior. The looks were completed with bright red lips.

Dior displayed natural, nude nails down the runway.

Ultra feminine as usual for Elie Saab this season. Side, cornrow braids, winged eye liner, with soft lips and cheeks made for a pretty show.

Various shades of jewel toned eyes and netted veils made for a memorable beauty look. Butterfly accents over the mouth and metallic vines around the neck completed Giambattista Valli's earthy collection.

Swimming in tulle, winged eye makeup (resembling masks) in rich jewel tones set the stage for Black Swan inspiration.

Wow… the ONLY thing I liked about this year’s Fashion Week were the nails sported by Chanel. The vampire look was positively hideous! As for the rest of the horrifying looks & detestful makeup, well, it all looks as if the models were extras from “The Hunger Games” as pompous, unnatural, egregiously made up citizens of the Capitol of Panem!
Lol! I forgot to mention that look #19 in this slideshow, the one by Yiqing Yin, looks like princess Merida (from the movie “Brave” which is a must-see!) on PMS!
Are you sure these aren’t pictures from the annual comic-con?
