Sophie Theallet Says Olé With Her Makeup
For Sophie Theallet's presentation, Nars lead makeup artist Lena Koro was inspired by Chavela Vargas, the 91-year-old singer of Mexican folk songs.
For Sophie Theallet's presentation, Nars lead makeup artist Lena Koro was inspired by Chavela Vargas, the 91-year-old singer of Mexican folk songs. She called the look "polished and bright," and all eyes were on the bold red lip. To get the look, Koro applied Nars Pure Matte lipstick in Vesuvio, followed by a coat of Triple X lip gloss. On eyes, Koro used Cordura and Tzarine duo eye shadows, along with two forthcoming shades: a creamy color from spring 2011's Calanque eye shadow trio, and the black hue of Okinawa eye shadow trio, out for holiday. Skin was simple — just a little tinted moisturizer to even things out — and Nars Deep Throat blush added heat to the cheeks.

Unlike many guests tonight, Vera Farmiga brought color to the carpet. Her blue Sophie Theallet frock is super romantic, and matches her baby blues beautifully. The black ribbon detail adds a sharp edge, while statement Van Cleef & Arpels earrings and ring provide sparkle. Love it or hate it?
