At The Art of Being by Elizabeth Emanuel show we had so much room backstage – one room for a hair, one for makeup and another one for all the clothes and accessories – so it was very calm backstage.
Make up artist Lan Nguyen backstage with her team.
Tim Furssedonn, International Artistic Director for Toni and Guy, styled the hair for the show!
The models looked so lovely on the staircase just before the show! Imagine three changes and running up and down two flights of stairs – our models were truly amazing!

Any woman with the tiniest whisper of fashion will have a fool proof, wonder of LBD in her closet. The LBD dress is instant glamour; it gives the wearer a combo of sex appeal and self assured confidence. I feel women should have the same fool proof instant power product in their makeup kits… the perfect red lipstick.
On a clean face with barely there product can give the wearer a strong, edgy, androgynous tone straight off the catwalk. A red lipstick worn with a flick of black cream eye liner on the eyes can give the wearer a dash of flavour straight out of Mad Men. Create a moody, oversized smoky eye paired up with a red lip and you’ve got 1930s silent film star personified. But which one to choose? I was asked to go shopping with the beauty editor from Celebs on Sunday to create, pick, choose create a chart of red lipstick for every skin tone. My absolute favourites are Giorgio Armani 401 and Benefits Flirt Alert. They are the most wearable colour for most skin tones, feel nice on the lips and has lasting power.

Every holiday season I seem to have a favourite dress. It started from a very young age. When I was little we used to go to England for Christmas to visit my grandparents and every Christmas my mother would make me a special dress to wear for Christmas day. One year she made me a blue velvet dress with white cuffs and a white collar. I must have been about seven but I still remember how wonderful it was and how much fun I had wearing that dress.
I recenlty received this lace dress from Very and it’s become one of my favourite dresses this Christmas! I seem to wear it all the time. I like dresses because they’re easy to wear. You just throw it on and you’re basically good to go!
