Lily Donaldson posing in the Fashion’s Night Out T-shirt began the hype, and now Liya Kebede has been snapped by Patrick Demarchelier accessorizing the shirt with an embellished blazer and massive headpiece.

And while the excitement has been mounting for September 10 for quite some time now, the night just continues to get better and better.

So far Cindy Crawford, Karolina Kurkova, and Stephanie Seymour are the models set to appear in support of the initiative and the list of stores participating has grown to 700 from all five boroughs. Anna Wintour and Michael Kors will sign shirts at the Queens Center, where guests will have a preview performance to Hair; Payless will provide shuttle service via Gray Line double-decker buses, while Aveda is sponsoring pedicabs (how NYC appropriate); Barneys has not only both Olsens in attendance, but their bartending skills as well; Chanel will show off their new jade nail polish with guest DJ Alexa Chung, while Poppy King will use her lipstick knowledge to provide lip-readings; plus there will be salsa and knitting lessons, a cook-off, and fashion games. Not to mention Hamish Bowles on the piano.

Can we clone ourselves? Because that night will just be too much fun to miss out on anything.

Behind every great supermodel is a team of people to ensure she goes down the runway looking like a million bucks. Part of that team is the makeup artist, entrusted with the task of making beautiful women look even better and Eric Sakas is one of the finest. He has been creating runway-ready looks for over 16 years, working with some of the best known in the industry—both in beauty and in fashion.

“Makeup is not rocket science and it’s not meant to be,” says Eric. Having had such extensive experience, he insists that there is not one runway look that you can’t replicate at home. “Yes, some looks are a little more out there than others, but for the most part, they usually are just variations on classic looks.” Eric spent many years working side by side with the late legendary Kevyn Aucoin, helping to found Kevin Aucoin Beauty, and is even readying his own organic beauty product line, Vapour Beauty, due out this month on shopnbc.com. “He was truly a master and cranked out hundreds of looks each year on photo shoots for Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar and for such designers as Ralph Lauren, Isaac Mizrahi, Donna Karan, and Todd Oldham. He was challenged each season with creating unique looks for each designer he worked with.

“All designers look for inspiration,” Eric continues. “They often look to the past for references that help define their collections, and it is the job of the makeup artist—along with the hairstylist—to pull the entire look together and bring the collection to life.

“The top designers prefer to work with artists who can understand their references to interpret the look. A woman on the tundra, the girl about town, country chic, the bohemian. This is part of the creative process. What often happens is that the artist will take a classic look and spin it with a modern twist. Sometimes it is purely classic and others it’s considered a new trend.” While some of the colors may change over time, classic looks will always remain current.

In honor of Woodstock’s anniversary, Modelinia would like to take a moment to fawn over some of the fashion that models chose to sport at music festivals. After all, it was Kate Moss’ look that made wellies with shorts popular. If anyone can look good covered in mud with messy hair, it’s certainly these beautiful trendsetting ladies.

So the scan’s slightly off, but until there’s a better version we’ll just have to share this cover, because it’s one more count for the models appearing on September covers.

This time it’s Erin Wasson on the cover of Flair.

But how amazing is it that the magazine decided to leave a bit of the original Erin in this photo shoot? She isn’t sporting her cool, laid-back Cali-girl-meets-NYC style, but the wavy hair and deep rimmed eyes are still there. And it’s truly the Erin we love.
