HAIR & MAKE UP
The look at Prabal Gurung, by Diane Kendal, was radiant and fresh with subtle sunkissed sparkle on the eyes and cheek.
Prabal GurungHair was by Anthony Turner, styled in textured twisted ponytails.
Diane von FurstenbergAt Diane von Furstenberg, Pat McGrath created a graphic eye with shadow applied into the crease of the eyelid. Skin was illuminated and lips a soft nude.
Diane von FurstenbergBouncy blow-dries by Orlando Pita were tweaked to suit each model's individual style, from supersized curls to straight and sleek styles.
Derek LamMake-up by Tom Pecheux at Derek Lam was minimal and fresh, with a pale lip to complete it.
Victoria BeckhamAt Victoria Beckham, Pat McGrath decided one beauty look just wasn't enough. A wash of khaki across the eyes was the look for some of the girls, whilst others sported bold red lips.
At Altuzarra, graphic eyes by Tom Pecheux were customised for each model, whilst some had their eyes left bare.
Alexander WangA little natural-looking colour around the eyes gave models at Alexander Wang a "morning after" look, whilst Diane Kendal and her team left skin looking fresh.
Fenty Puma by RihannaPat McGrath gave models perfected skin and bold black lipstick for the Fenty Puma by Rihanna show.
Jason WuThe focus of the Jason Wu make-up look was clumpy lashes, by Yadim.
Jason WuHair was styled in soft waves with deep side partings, by Paul Hanlon.

SPORTS ILLUSTRATED MAKES HISTORY
ASHLEY GRAHAM has spoken about her delight at being chosen as the first plus-size model to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.
I see my cover and I wanted to drop to my knees but this dress would've ripped and I have Spanx on underneath this," Graham, whose reaction on stage as the cover was unveiled made the audience laugh, told People. "I thought Sports Illustrated was taking a risk by putting a girl my size in the pages, but putting me on the cover? They aren't just breaking barriers; they are the standard now. This is beyond epic."

"I thought Sports Illustrated was taking a risk by putting a girl my size in the pages, but putting me on the cover? They aren't just breaking barriers; they are the standard now. This is beyond epic."
Graham has been vocal about her dislike of the label 'plus-size' and previously told E! News: 'I've got plenty of friends [of all sizes] and different shapes and everything,
'And I don't want any of them to feel like they aren't 'real women.''
Taking to Instagram on Saturday night, Ashley gushed: 'Truly speechless!!! This cover is for every woman who felt like she wasn't beautiful enough because of her size.
'You can do and achieve anything you put your mind to. Thank you so much to the entire @si_swimsuit team! I'm so excited to be a part of your family. I love you all!!! #siswim #beautybeyondsize'
Graham, at a size 14, is the first fuller-figured model to take one of the prized spots on the cover.
In addition to her first-ever editorial and cover with the brand, Graham will also star alongside models Philomena Kwao and Nicola Griffin in plus-size retailer Swim Suits For All's second ad.
This year, Swimsuits For All will make history by having 56-year-old Nicola featured in its ad, making her the oldest woman to grace the pages of the Swimsuit issue.
