Not that we saw any tutu\u2019s strutting the runways or anything, it was more in the beauty department that this look found its home.\u00a0 From the fresh faced, rehearsal-ready ingenues at <strong>Versace<\/strong> with their no nonsense scraped back hair (embellished with fine black twine) flush of rose on cheek and lip and highlighted inner eye all made for a very fresh and beautiful look.<\/p>\n<p>At <strong>Emanuel Ungaro<\/strong>, the balletic look was taken to the next level, with ever-so-wispy lashes and dreamy-creamy skin. Noticeably, the brows were pale and the lip quite naked and like at the Versace show, the hair was pulled back tight accentuating the face and neck. And lastly, a look worthy of any Prima Ballerina came from <strong>D-Squared<\/strong>. While the hair was more relaxed than previous observations, the makeup was all about the eyes. Burnished with gold, black and a pop of red in the center lid, the eye shape was elongated and extended for maximum effect. The balancing act came from the softly groomed brow, velvety skin texture and sheer lip color. It was beautifully done and effective. \u00a0Want to create some of these looks for yourself?
