I know that we're in London land right now and gearing up for Milan, but it's imperative that we rewind slightly to look at what treats we'll be sporting on our talons sometime soon. NYFW was abuzz with great nails (told you so, didn't I?). Backstage, the colours were largely dark or neutral but the name of the game was texture. Lots and lots of texture. Check out these snaps to see what you'll be wearing.
Missed the shows? Not to worry, we've got the recap of the top makeup trends seen on the runways at 2010 Fall NY Fashion Week. Watch now!
As we bid adieu to Fall 2010 New York Fashion Week, it's time to look back over the hundreds of looks that sauntered down the runway this season.
We've seen the more 'fashion-forward' looks that start and end on the runways, but a few styles will actually translate into everyday wear. Here are our picks of the best looks from Fall 2010 in New York.
New York Fashion Week is over (now we're onto London), but the trends that it sparks are just beginning.
And while it's easy to spot styles and colours that will become real-world trends, others are likely to stay runway fantasies. While we love the creativity behind these looks, you and I probably won't be wearing them anytime soon.
I love everything about Kate Moss. The clothes. The hair. The makeup. The Croydon twang. Even her fragrances. And I'm not overly partial to a celeb fragrance, y'know. But Kate's latest release has the "it" note of the moment: pink pepper.
It also features white freesia, mandarin, heliotrope, jasmine, almond flower, tonka bean, vanilla and musk, all holed up in a finely faceted flacon, complete with rose-gold collar. It's very '80s. And very cool. I think it's the smoky topaz and jade bottle: very vintage-y. But I guess that's the idea.
Anyway, you know the deal by now: to accompany our amazing 2010 Fall Fashion Week coverage, everyday through Sunday, 21 February, we're giving you the chance to win Kate Moss Vintage.
All you have to do today is share with us in the comments section whether you'd like to see Miss Moss branch out into the hair and makeup arena, producing cosmetics as well as clothes and fragrances?

Helena Christensen is quite possibly the most gorgeous woman to have graced this planet. Now, I'll admit that I'm no Helena, but I'll be damned if I'm not going to steal, perfect, and maybe even trump Ms. C's metallic rose-gold eye makeup. I'll do it. I will. Now, being a front-rower-from-the-comfort-of-your-own-home thanks to Fab's (and OK, mine, if you insist) awesome NYFW coverage, you should've picked up on one thing along the way. Well more than one thing, but, most importantly, you should realise that even if a makeup look is mega, mega simple, it's probably taken four different eyeshadows to get there. Whenever you get disappointed that you can't find the perfect match to a celeb shade—don't be afraid to mix. 'Tis what the experts do. So, after you've prepped and primed eyes, coat the lid in MAC Eye Shadow in Brown Down ($32), then apply Napoleon Perdis Light Patrol Palette ($72) in the metallic bronze hue over the top. Voila! Now Helena called, she wants her look back . . .
I had thought (sadly) that Melissa George might be the only Aussie flying the flag at the NYFW Fall shows, but turns out, Naomi Watts and Isabel Lucas were just waiting for Mr. Klein's invitation. Now, the front row is just as important as the runway; we look there for inspiration too so the FR is definitely a place to bring out the big guns. Sadly Isabel Lucas didn't. Though she does do chillaxed-Australian-style-meets-Erin-Wasson-meets-grunge very well, don't you think? Naomi and Kate Bosworth went down the more traditional 'Calvin' path of sleek, straight hair. But the time has come, which look do you prefer?
Clearly Francisco Costa stuck to the Calvin Klein way of thinking: sleek and simple. Lips were nude, cheeks were bare and brows were decidedly full and filled. Skin took on the same dewy texture that we saw earlier in the week at Toni Maticevski, Daniel Vosovic and Victoria Beckham. Hair was styled in an exaggerated side-part and secured in a low pony at the nape of the neck. It's beautiful, wearable and traditional. And that makes you like it less or more?
