Meet 3 Gorgeous Retired Veterans Who Walked the NYFW Runway

"I like a lot of '40s jazz-era style, and I'm wearing a Michael Kors dress that's a little more edgy, so [the red lip] seemed like the right way to go," said veteran Elana Duffy.

Makeup artist Yuby Leoce used Bobbi Brown Art Stick in Harlow Red ($26) on her lips. Then, she balanced out the bright pout with a subtle shimmer on her eyes using Bobbi Brown Sparkle Shadow in Mica ($32). "Because it's an evening dress, I thought the sparkle would look really pretty," Leoce noted. "Since we were going a little stronger on the lip, I didn't want to do too dark on the eye. We kept it more neutral on the lids."
