Floral crowns made a comeback on the runway, albeit with more finesse. Hairdos were kept sleek and pulled-back—both in low ponytails and buns.
Chanel
Makeup was kept simple with subtle russet tones, bold brows and matte-to-perfection skin.
Dior
An ethereal kind of "luminous" beauty was on the moodboard, with light gold over the eyelids, natural lips and velvety skin. Spot the crystal-studded tiaras that make for a regal look.
Dior
“A soft and perfect complexion that is even and translucent,” according to Peter Philips, Creative & Image Director of Dior Makeup.
Fendi
Smouldering, metallic eyes and glossy lips complemented artistic director Kim Jones's opulent creations in his first-ever Fendi Couture collection.
Fendi
Venetian-inspired glass combs juxtaposed brilliantly with chunky ear cuffs, lending an air of androgyny to the overall look.
Giambattista Valli
Volume? Check. Supersized accessories? Check. How chic is this retro hairdo, inspired by photographs of Bendetta Barzini and Marisa Berenson?

The perfect solution for when you can't decide between two snazzy, statement-making bows—wear both!
Iris Van Herpen

Smokey eyes were the only necessary element for Natalia Vodianova's look, what with this transparent, shape-shifting crown (by artist Casey Curran) taking centre stage.
Schiaparelli
While the exaggerated earrings stole most of the attention from this collection, we can't help but to admire the bold red lip—in perfect contrast with bleached brows.
Ulyana Sergeenko
To enliven the couturier's Art Deco-inspired collection, the makeup was truly a glam fest—heavily-rimmed eyes, a strong contour, rosy lips and delicate brows made the look.

The perfectly-in-place finger waves—coupled with a sleek, low bun—were a refreshing take on the vintage hairdo.
Valentino
The appearance of the mullet on the runway merely cements the official comeback of this polarising hairdo—we're sold.
Valentino
The legendary Pat McGrath swathed models' faces in gold glitter for a gilded visage—the only appropriate way to close a couture show.
