00:00Hello, everyone. Welcome to Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2012. You are hanging out with Essence.com at Front Row Backstage. I'm Tia Williams, your beauty editor. This is the lovely Zandelay Blais, your fashion editor. And we're about to go check out Herve Leger, so follow us.
00:30We just saw the Herve Leger show. Oh, my God. Okay, before we get to the collection, let me tell you about this hair.
00:57So, instead of just a boring standard ponytail, these models came out in these super sleek modern ponytails, grabbed into three elastics going down the back of their heads.
01:08It was so chic. It was so unique. It was just a great update for, like, the standard pony. I loved it.
01:15And then the makeup was just very, very sheer, just the faintest hint of metallics, just kind of dewy and clean.
01:22But, God, it was about the ponytail. I was dying over it. Okay, so Zandelay, tell us about the collection.
01:27I have to agree with Tia. The ponytails, and I'm not even a beauty girl, were absolutely gorgeous and just so edgy.
01:32Even when you saw them from the side when the models were walking past us, it looked so beautiful.
01:36But that metallic that was sort of seen in the makeup faintly came out with guns blazing in the clothes.
01:41From the very first look, a straight gold metallic dress. I mean, it was breathtaking.
01:46And they continued that throughout the collection. So, there were some pieces that were all black, but they had, like, gold hardware.
01:51Let me tell you, this collection did not look like spring. This looked like the girl who's wearing florals in the daytime is going out partying hardcore at night with these pieces.
01:59It was gorgeous. And I think the celebrities in the audience would really love it.
02:03We saw Taraji P. Henson.
02:06Selita.
02:07Aisha Taylor.
02:07Aisha Taylor. Yeah. And you can tell these are all girls who, when you look on Essence.com, are actually routinely wearing Orveille Legere.
02:13So, it was nice to see them being supported by their favorite stars.
02:16Yeah, definitely. And they looked gorgeous, too.
02:18Would you say this is our favorite collection so far?
02:20Absolutely.
02:21Hands down. We love this one.
02:22Well, thank you guys for hanging out with us at Front Row Backstage.
