We took one look at the startling blue "eye feathers" at Prabal Gurang, and knew we just had to see it off the runway. Our real girl Nayantara Banerjee, aka the Williamsburg Seamster, was game, so MAC senior artist Gina Bettelli whipped up a makeup work of art.

"The smoky eye was the focus for this look," said Gina. "Rich tones of blue and green are blended into tie-dyed color transitions that mimic feathers. The look was expensive and powerful from a distance; fantastic for the runway."
