Runway Vs. Real Girl: Beauty Edition!

When you’re backstage amidst the hustle and bustle of Fashion Week, it’s easy to believe a very charming makeup artist when he tells you triangle-shaped eyeshadow is totally wearable off the runway. Not so.

But now that the NYFW haze has cleared, we figured we should put the runway-to-real-world theory to the test.

The result was predictably hilarious.
