Diane von Furstenberg brought a touch of  ’70s glamour to New York Fashion Week with her bright lip and bouncy curls beauty. ”Diane is all about empowering women,” said lead hairstylist Orlando Pita, who steered clear of adding extensions to the carefree styles. “To give all the girls the same look doesn’t say much to the message she wants to give.” The look can serve as inspiration—it’s a perfect way to transition from spring’s bright tones to fall’s subdued colors. We were so inspired, we just had to get the step-by-step breakdown. Click through our gallery to see tips from the pros, including the exact products they used.

There was an energetic vibe in the air at the Michael Kors fall runway show, which the designer described as “urban athleticism meets uptown polish.” His vision translated into a powerful lineup of sporty-chic separates—think rubberized pullovers and camo-printed fur—and athletic-meets-glamorous evening looks, the latter of which cleverly mixed basic black minidresses with eye-catching peplum skirts, complete with floor-sweeping trains. In addition to the high-performance fabrics, the color palette was equally bold, from taxicab yellow to neon orange. The accessories, always an instant must-have, included pointy-toe pumps, goggle sunglasses, and structured bags that added an uptown-girl edge. See our favorite looks in the gallery!

The beauty at the Marc by Marc Jacobs fashion show during New York Fashion Week took our breath away, and it’s no wonder, since makeup artist Dick Page and hairstylist Guido Palau (the ultimate industry pros) were at the helm. “The inspiration for this look was a 1940s-era woman, an uptown girl,” Palau said. “But we made the look more fun, and thus, more Marc by Marc.” And it was, with head-turning, amped-up voluminous curls and bold crimson lipstick.
