>> While everybody loves a little Fashion Week makeup theatricality, for most people, the vivid red eyebrows, foiled gold eyelids, and glittery black lips spotted on the catwalks don't really work in real life. However, if there's one time of year to glean inspiration from outrageous runway beauty looks, it's definitely now.

>> Serkan Sarier — alumnus of Giambattista Valli, Carolina Herrera, and Emanuel Ungaro's couture atelier — debuted his third Brood collection on Monday at the Nicholas Robinson Gallery in New York. Sarier's perpetual play with sportif couture was a theme that resonated with a number of designers for Spring 2012, but his take involved avant-garde, inky dyed separates with parachute-inspired pulls. Lest he get caught up in a swell of zips, sheers, and shirrs, Sarier tailored many pieces around the waist and designed to create the appearance of "layering without layering." Spring 2012 also marks the designer's first stab at producing shoes in-house.

>> After five consecutive Chanel campaigns — ending with the Fall 2011 set styled by Carine Roitfeld — it sounds like Freja Beha Erichsen's reign has come to an end. Roitfeld and Karl Lagerfeld reteamed over the weekend at the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, France, where Lagerfeld shot Saskia de Brauw and Joan Smalls for the Spring 2012 Chanel ads, which are “all about athletics and the sea. . . . It’s very modern sportif and in black and white,” according to the designer. He is now headed to Rome to shoot Fendi's Spring 2012 campaign with Arizona Muse, who will pose on the city's streets at dawn and dusk. She replaces Anja Rubik, who has been the face of Fendi for the past four seasons. [WWD]
