The hottest ticket in town was Jason Wu’s show at the St. Regis hotel. Ever since being put on the map by Mrs. Obama for designing her Inaugural gown, Mr. Wu has been in high demand and the collection for spring is beautiful. His inspiration came from Ted Burton movies, where all the actresses have huge eyes and dark mouths.
Makeup artist Lucia Peroni who was freelancing for MAC cosmetics created a look that was beyond amazing. There were three different lip colors and something new from MAC for the eyes that will be available Spring 2010 called Crushed Metal Pigment. It’s a champagne color that is dabbed on the eyes for a soft sparkly look.
