Back to blond for the Academy Awards, she put the spotlight on her baby blues. "I rimmed her inner lids with metallic gray liner, which is sexy and sparkly, but not heavy," said her makeup artist, Fiona Stiles. She also added a swipe of violet liner under the bottom lashes and blended matte nude shadow along the brow bone. To make the eyes really shine, she filled Banks brows a bit: "A strong, sculpted brow provides a great frame for subtle eye makeup."

For the Costume Institute Gala, Banks rocked an edgy low ponytail. "I wanted her hair to mimic the flirtation and texture of her dress," said Frederic Fekkai stylist Adir Abergel, who worked with the star. To keep the ponytail from feeling too gym-ready, Abergel had a little trick: He skipped elastics and turned to bobby pins instead. "I wanted the hair to hug the nape of the neck. If I had used a rubber band, it would have lifted the ponytail up and away from her neck too much," he explained.
