Who: Zhivago
When: 7 pm, April 14. The Runway, Carriageworks.
Hair: Richard Kavanagh for Redken
Hair style: "The inspiration for this look is a very Egyptian, Manga character. Manga being the Japanese cartoon - it's like the Egyptian version of that. Every girl is wearing a black bob wig, which we've cut so they have little fringes that sit in the centre. We have razored them out so they're really textured and then prepped them with hairspray and heat so that pieces stick out at all different angles. Before we put the wigs on, we're wrapping the hair and putting it in a ponytail. Then we add black extensions to the ponytails and wrap them around the base of the ponytail until it's about 10-12 inches long. We then paint the wrapped part gold using Redken's new Colour Rebel. Then when we put the wigs on, the ponytail will be coming out from underneath. Other products used are Redken Forceful 23," says Richard Kavanagh.
Make-up: Victoria Cutris for Curtis Collection
Make-up style: "The look tonight is Cleopatra, with a flavour of Las Vegas. The eyes are heavily smoked out, with some bronze and golds to really give that luxurious and expensive feel. We've used a khol black pencil to define and create a smoky effect with the eyes, which we've then gone over with bronze and gold shimmer. It's the gold on the inner corners of the eyes that we're really trying to make shine through. We've also given the brows some defintion and applied lashes and mascara. It's all about the eyes tonight so we've kept the skin very clean but with lots and lots of contouring. To finish off we've used a burgundy stain on the lips, so that they're just flushed with colour - no sheen," says Victoria Curtis.
