Beautygram: Glow in the Dark Girls at Alexander Wang

Last season, camera bulbs flashed nonstop backstage at Alexander Wang as Gisele, Shalom Harlow, and Karolina Kurkova were prepped to make their surprise appearance on the runway. This time, probably because Mrs. Brady is busy being pregnant, the beauty look was the big secret. Makeup artist Diane Kendal and hairstylist Guido Palau were good at keeping their lips sealed, and colorist Laurie Foley was on hand to bleach all of the blonde models’ eyebrows … but why? Foley wouldn’t say; however she alluded to a possible finale “lightshow” (!!!). And their faces were highlighted with unusual amounts of white shimmer on their temples, cupid’s bow, and cheeks, so we’re thinking those areas will glow. Everyone’s hair was parted and accessorized with a strip of electrical tape — the brunettes got black; the blondes, tape was that off-white. We’re looking forward to seeing if our super-sleuthing worked and whether Wang has been watching Tron on repeat.
