Is Paris Fashion Week just an extension of the Oscars? At Valentino, all signs point to ‘oui.’

Models also wore similar makeup to the movie star, with deep red lips and kohl-etched eyes. And though the runway babes weren’t styled with their own baby blue ACLU ribbons, they did sport red beaded necklaces—a talisman in some Buddhist sects for power and positive action.

(At this point, we’ll take all the help we can get.)
