- New York Fashion Week not only previews fashion trends, but beauty trends as well.
- This season saw crystal makeup, glitter, dramatic ponytails, and more.
- We’re breaking down the best beauty looks from New York Fashion Week.
As much as we look forward to spotting the season’s best new trends every time Fashion Week rolls around, we can’t help but zoom in on the tiny details that make the outfits come together. No, we’re not talking about the bicep jewellery or oversized purses – we mean the beauty details.
Your hair, nails, and makeup can add that finishing touch that makes any ensemble look good (or at least make you feel that way), and the beauty looks at New York Fashion Week were no exception. A sleek high ponytail added a sophisticated edge to a black two-piece suit. A swipe of soft pastel nail polish took a fringe dress from edgy to flirty. The biggest impact is in the details when it comes to fashion.
Now that we’re nearing the end of fashion month, we’re breaking down the best beauty moments from NYFW. The best part: each one is so easy to wear, they could never just be relegated to the runway. From the dramatic long ponytails to the diffused eye makeup, here are the most wearable trends from New York Fashion Week 2022.

New York Fashion Week Hair Trend: Wire-Wrapped Ponytails
The wire-wrapped ponytails at the Sergio Hudson show were inspired by “glamorous girls on safari,” says key hairstylist Naeemah Lafond. The model’s hairs were given a deep side part, slicked into low ponytails and given loads of volume.

Turns out, crystal embellishments aren’t relegated to just eyes or nails, but they also make a fun addition to hair. Just take a look at these embellished braids at the Bronx and Banco show.
