Beyoncé
Side ponytails made appearances on the Fall 2015 runways, but we have a feeling Bey is going to be the only one responsible for bringing the style back after tonight.

Gigi Hadid
The model was fresh-faced and glowing; she and makeup artist Patrick Ta looked to Dolce & Gabbana runway shows for beauty inspiration.

Joan Smalls
The model's gorgeous violet eyes were a mix of Estée Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Eyeshadow Palette in Envious Orchid and Pure Color Gelée in Cyber Magenta.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
The actress went dark and glamorous with a slick bun and burgundy lips, but didn't skimp on her signature bronze glow.
5Media Platforms Design Team
Rihanna
Rihanna stole the show with her jeweled headpiece, retro bob and unbelievable yellow gown that required a team to walk it down the red carpet.
6Media Platforms Design Team
Zendaya
The singer looked like a medieval princess (a modern and very cool one) in a crown of suns and waves past her waist.
7Media Platforms Design Team
Lily Aldridge
Makeup artist Quinn Murphy used Marc Jacobs Le Marc Lip Creme in Magenta on Aldridge, who—at the last moment—ditched the classic, Grace Kelly-inspired look she originally planned on and went for dark drama.
8Media Platforms Design Team
Lily Collins
The actress channeled Hepburn's old-Hollywood elegance with a netted veil and subtle, but playful, lip color. The shade? Lancôme Rouge in Love in Miss Coquelicot.

Dakota Johnson
In addition to lots of skin, Johnson showed off her new tousled bob and serious cat-eyes, courtesy of makeup artist Pati Dubroff.
10Media Platforms Design Team
Diane Kruger
Fresh flowers were a major trend on this red carpet and we love how Kruger incorporated them in easily with soft waves.
11Media Platforms Design Team
Adriana Lima
We thought it was impossible for the supermodel to look even more striking than always, but she proved us wrong with new blunt bangs, dark lip and eye makeup and a goth manicure.
12Media Platforms Design Team
Amanda Seyfried
Makeup artist Monika Blunder aimed to balance the actress's ethereal Givenchy dress out with "tough, modern" makeup. She used Clé de Peau Extra Rich Lipstick in Mister Lincoln and Eye Color Quad in Silver Eclipse to make a soft, shaded V-shape at the outer corners of her eyes.
13Media Platforms Design Team
Cara Delevingne
Leave it to Delevingne to translate the Chinese theme in the most original way: with gorgeous cherry blossom ink hand-drawn by her tattoo artist Bang Bang stretching down her arms, across her chest and around her neck.
14Media Platforms Design Team
Selena Gomez
The singer, who looked more flamenco dancer than geisha, proved white orchids and red lipstick are a winning combo.
15Media Platforms Design Team
Jennifer Lawrence
The actress wore Dior Rouge Dior Brilliant Lipshine in Hollywood with a perfectly disheveled bun.
16Media Platforms Design Team
Sarah Jessica Parker
Makeup artist Leslie Lopez gave the actress bold, jade green eyes using Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Jungle layered under Luster Eye Colour in Sheradaze.
