Rick Owens: Hairstylist Luigi Morenu gave boys a sharp, monk-like cut - a grooming look which slotted in perfectly with make-up maestro Lucia Peroni's ghostly pale, powdered faces

Dior Homme: Kris Van Assche's brief for the collection was a strong, confident man. Hairstylist Anthony Turner and make-up artist Lucia Pica responded by creating a defined, healthy look

Maison Martin Margiela: A collection of revisited sartorial silhouettes was accompanied by a sophisticated scruffy look, with ruffled hair and naturally groomed faces

Kris Van Assche: A celebration of youth on the catwalk, Kris Van Assche's collection was filled with young references and slogans, which were reflected in the youthful hairstyles sported on the cast of barely legal-looking models

Raf Simons: Guido Palau sculpted a configuration of overlapping locks to reference the geometric elements of Raf Simons' collection, while make-up guru Peter Phillips created an even, pale tone for the skin

Hermès: The 'chic le sport' feel at Hermès was matched with a clean look by make-up artist Alexandra Schiavi, who left faces bare and healthy, while Delphine Courtelle chose a casually brushed effect for the hair

Ami: A quiff by Vi Sapyyapy created a head of structured hair, while make-up artist Adrien Pinault highlighted faces, adding a hint of gloss to the lip

Paul Smith: Matt Mulhall gave the Paul Smith boys casual, wavy hairstyles, while Natsumi Watanabe's smart, understated make-up added a cool glow to their faces

Miharayasuhiro: In keeping with the collection's punk inspiration, Odile Gilbert's structured hair at Miharayasuhiro emanated urban charm, while Marie Duhart focused on uniform skin with a touch of colour on the mouth

Louis Vuitton: Hairstylist Guido Palau conjured gently tousled waves, which make-up artist Peter Phillips paired with soft, powdered faces, highlighted with a hint of blush

Damir Doma: The Croatian-born designer's sportswear references were picked up by hairstylist Anthony Turner, who chose hairbands to frame the heads of spiky locks. Make-up artist Yadim at Callistè created a soft palette for faces

Valentino: A simple side parting for hair and luminous make-up was the perfect grooming formula for Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli’s latest show for Valentino

Dries Van Noten: The grooming at Dries Van Noten was as natural as it gets, with Rudi Cremers and Paul Hanlon creating a bare, just-out-of-bed look to complement the grunge vibes of the collection

Givenchy: Riccardo Tisci's black and white collection for Givenchy was filled with Rock'n'Roll references, which Luigi Murenu and Pat McGrath enhanced with a sophisticated yet roughened-up look for hair and make-up

Lanvin: Pale, polished complexions were accentuated with sleek, combed-back hair
