After seeing the b&w photo, I definately believe that the dress was the wrong color for her, since she looks amazing in the b&w pic.

The dress had a goddess feel," said makeup artist Ricky Wilson of Coco Rocha, who he made up for "The Model As Muse: Embodying Fashion" Costume Institute Gala on May 4. "I wanted to make her look like she owned the world in that dress. The eyes were shaded in dark chocolate and black tones while the skin was left contoured and very soft lips." Here's how he created the look.

SKIN:
DiorSkin Nude Foundation #010
Dior Skinflash Radiance Booster Pen
DiorBlush in #639
DiorSkin Shimmer Star in Amber Diamond

EYES:
Dior 2-Colour Eyeshadow in 565
Dior Waterproof Crayon Eyeliner in Intense Brown and Trinidad Black
DiorShow Mascara in Blackout

LIPS:
Dior Addict Lip Color in Beige Negligee
Dior Lip Polish #2

I found a little article about Coco getting ready for the Met gala! It's mostly about her makeup but there are a few little tidbits about Coco that make it worth reading.

At Home with Coco Rocha



There are few things that could’ve compelled us to leave the office yesterday as we peered out onto day three of continuous rain in New York. (Side note: Don’t check the ten-day; it’s depressing.) But when Coco Rocha asks you to come over to her place to hang out while she gets ready for the Met gala, you go. And so, umbrella in hand, we went to pre-party with the flame-haired catwalker and her handlers, who included a publicist, a booker, hair stylist Louise O’Connor (plus assistant), Dior makeup artist Ricky Wilson, and Peek-A-Boo, the model’s Maltipoo. Straight off, it was clear that this was not Rocha’s first rodeo: Not only did she do archival image research to get the inspiration for her Grecian/Victorian-era braided mass of ringlets (”I am obsessed with old movies, like period pieces,” the model explained as she showed us her digital tear sheets) but she also art-directed her own makeup look with authority: “We’re going for clean, clean skin—give me coverup!—a dark eye and a nude lip. And make sure the eye is not black, but more brown.” (Don’t you just love a woman who knows what she wants?) To get her hair the right consistency for the full-bodied effect she wanted, Rocha sat through five hours of extensions, which O’Connor then prepped with Barex Gum Gum to give the hair the guts to hold a curl. O’Connor followed this up with sectional braiding to create a crisscrossed structure in the back of the hair before handing the reins over to Wilson. The makeup artist smudged Dior’s Waterproof Crayon Eyeliner in Intense Brown from Rocha’s lash line to the crease to set a sultry base for the smoky-brown look he created using Dior’s 2-Color Eyeshadow in No. 565. “When you do a strong eye, it’s always important to start there first, so if anything falls, the skin stays clean,” he explained, as he rimmed Rocha’s lids with black liner and applied the first of two coats of mascara. “Let that one dry for a bit,” he said, filling in her eyebrows with a taupe shadow. “We’ll come back to it later.” While Rocha’s elongated smolder was truly something to behold, we found ourselves more mesmerized by the Diorskin Nude Foundation in No. 010 that Wilson brushed all over her porcelain skin—the sheer coverage! A few circular strokes of amber shimmer on her cheekbones and some Dior Addict Lipcolor in Beige Negligee later, and the model was off to meet her date, Isaac Mizrahi—and we headed back off into the rain. Sigh…
