&lt;h2&gt;DISTRICT STYLE CHALLENGE WINNERS ANNOUNCED!&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s the time we’ve all been waiting for, citizens! The Capitol is ready to announce the winners of the District Style Challenges (and the Grand Prize Winner!), and to reward them for their dazzling creations. We’ve received entries from all over Panem in the form of stunning shoes, marvelous maquillage, Peeta’s wardrobe and Capitol finery worn by the citizens themselves. See who got our hearts racing with their sizzling designs!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!-- more --&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;h2&gt;GRAND PRIZE WINNER&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3ekjwLr3I1r8c567o2_500.jpg" width="466"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Winner: Aubrielle Bullock&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; For the grand prize winner, the editors of Capitol Couture were looking for a style icon on par with our beloved Effie Trinket. Aubrielle Bullock took the pink-spiration and ran with it: her luxurious magenta and platinum curls are topped with a giant floral-print blossom, her makeup and body-stencilling are Capitol-worthy and her frothy pink and yellow confection prove her a master à la mode. The Capitol is raving about your winning look, Aubrielle! For your amazing effort, we award you with our grand prize – a $2,000 American Express gift card.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;RUNNER UP: CHALLENGE #1&lt;/h2&gt;

Congratulations, Rebecca! You are the winner of District Style Challenge #1, and we are pleased to present you with a Zappo’s gift card worth $750.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;RUNNER UP: CHALLENGE #2&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3ekjwLr3I1r8c567o4_500.jpg" width="466"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Winner: No Name&lt;br/&gt; Tumblr: &lt;a href="http://chasewillow.tumblr.com" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://chasewillow.tumblr.com" target="_blank"&gt;http://chasewillow.tumblr.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; This District 1 denizen took full advantage her luxurious location for the makeup challenge. She applies 24 karat gold foil to her lips, golden scales beneath her eyes, and tops the whole thing off with shimmering brows. This citizen’s outlook is as rich as her home district! We are proud to declare you the winner of District Style Challenge #2, and to present you with a $750 gift card to MAC Cosmetics.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;RUNNER UP: CHALLENGE #3&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3ekjwLr3I1r8c567o5_500.jpg" width="466"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Winner: May Vu&lt;br/&gt; Tumblr: &lt;a href="http://godtech.tumblr.com" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://godtech.tumblr.com" target="_blank"&gt;http://godtech.tumblr.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; For Peeta’s interview with Caesar Flickerman, May Vu created a slick, charcoal grey and black suit with flaming piping – perfectly evoking the muted coal mines of D12 combined with the spark its two tributes have brought to the Games. The Capitol applaud your smouldering skills, May! You are the winner of District Style Challenge #3, and we award your efforts with a $750 gift card to Nordstrom.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;RUNNER UP: CHALLENGE #4&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3ekjwLr3I1r8c567o6_500.jpg" width="466"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Winner: Jonna Pagaduan&lt;br/&gt; Tumblr: &lt;a href="http://jonnachi.tumblr.com" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://jonnachi.tumblr.com" target="_blank"&gt;http://jonnachi.tumblr.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; The #lookyourbest challenge brought out the best in our fair citizens: for her Hunger Games viewing look, Jonna Pagaduan effortlessly captured the inherent glamour of District 3’s technology. Exposed circuitry is topped with wire-trimmed leather for a magnetic ensemble – the voltaic-stamped wedges are just the icing on the cake! Congratulations on your electrifying design, Jonna - you are the winner of District Style Challenge #4 and a $750 Nordstrom gift card!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sequins make the top sparkle. And skintight latex makes the bottom shine. We&amp;#8217;re jealous&amp;#8230;but we still don&amp;#8217;t envy you having to get out of those pants.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="postContent"&gt;
&lt;div class="showProfile"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;THE CAPITOL MALE&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;INSIDE THE MINDS OF OUR HAUTEST MENFOLK&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you haven’t satiated your thirst for all things Capitol, it’s time to gather ‘round because we’ve got exclusive interviews with all of the most fashionable fellows involved in this year’s Games. From Caesar Flickerman’s fabulous fashion tips (think alabaster pocket squares!) to what Seneca Crane does to keep his skin Games-ready (that luscious salt scrub sounds divine!). To see what makes the gentleman of the Games tick, read on!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!-- more --&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SENECA CRANE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Signature Look: Most of our moded men have one signature item that sets them a part from all Capitol imitators, and Seneca is no exception. His heavenly hirsuteness culminates in a superbly sculpted beard, the envy of stylish men everywhere.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Favorite Trend: “While I love the flourish of a polished accessory, there’s a reason for the saying, ‘Clothes make the man.’ I like to think that my sartorial sense conveys the same passion and creativity I’m bringing to the Games this year - so consider my wardrobe an exclusive preview of what you’ll see in the Arena!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best Dressed Woman: “I don’t think it will come as a surprise that Effie Trinket has wowed the Capitol and beyond with her baroque-chic aesthetic - from her powder-pale face to her gilded heels, she epitomizes what our glorious city is all about.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prep: Our newest Head Gamemaker is unmitigatedly devoted to the art of gourmet skincare, and tells us, “If you’ve never had a diamond salt scrub crafted from pure ground District 4 sea salt and District 1 gems, you haven’t lived.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What to Expect: While Seneca absolutely refuses to share a shred of detail regarding the challenges of the 74th Annual Hunger Games, he cheekily hints that he has some fun things in store. “None of the Tributes should ever feel too comfortable,” he says with a smile.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Style Tips: “Grooming is integral in making an impression - my beard isn’t just decoration, it tells people who I am before I even enter the room. President Snow has his mane of white hair, Claudius has his teased coif - what do you want your hair to say?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hot for Next Year: Seneca is a huge fan of fur-soled moccasins around the house - and he thinks they’ll soon make the jump to the streets. “What could be more luxurious than walking on tangerine-tinted ocelot fur 24/7?” he asks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2lw1bDF951r8c567o1_500.jpg" width="467"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CAESAR FLICKERMAN&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Inspiration: “From the opulent jewels of District 1 to the inky smoke of District 12, I take a little something from all of Panem to create my signature style - though most of my ideas come from right here in our Capitol, where the fashion volume is turned all the way up!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Signature Look: Flickerman’s known to completely change his look every year, right down to the eyebrow tint. For the 74th Hunger Games, he has been eschewing last year’s crimson hue for a softer powder blue &amp;#8212; surely set to the Tributes at ease during their interviews.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Every Capitol Man should own: “A pristine, alabaster pocket square woven from genuine White Caper butterfly silk. No matter what color you’re wearing or what tint your skin is dyed, it will radiate a simple glow, sure to complement every outfit.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best-Dressed Citizen: “Can I vote for myself?” he laughs. “Just kidding! I’d have say it’s a tie between the terribly interesting simplicity of Cinna and the classic severity of President Snow. When is a lapel rose not in style?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Worst Fashion Memory: “Do you remember the 60th Hunger Games? The one year I didn’t wear my signature midnight blue suit? Back then draped equine silk was all the rage - I looked like I was wearing pajamas! Never again!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fashion Pet Peeve: While Flickerman is welcoming of most trends, the one thing that truly disappoints him are those who don’t try. “I just think there can be so much beauty in the world,” he sighs. “Why not express it on the outside?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Favorite Tribute: “You know I can’t answer that,” he smiled coyly. “I will say that this year’s competition has been truly illuminating.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2lw1u7TBs1r8c567o1_500.jpg" width="467"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLAUDIUS TEMPLESMITH&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Catch Phrase: “May the odds be ever in your favor - people quote it to me on the street all the time. Darlings, I’m not the one in the arena! But I appreciate how enthusiastic they are about my role in the Games.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Personal Style: Claudius considers himself the Capitol’s very own Beau Brummel - a verified dandy. “Tall heels and taller hair is what I always say,” he chuckles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Worst Dressed: “Not even a question! Those outlandish get-ups of Haymitch Abernathy! I mean, who taught that man to tie a cravat?!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Voice Care: Claudius swears by his own concoction: a veritable brew of honey, green tea and a pinch of powdered rhinoceros horn, harvested with silk gloves from one of the rarest creatures of District 10. “It does wonders to create that booming tenor you know and love,” he swears.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Designer to Watch For: Though he admires new star Cinna’s creations, Claudius defers to his personal Stylist - whom he refuses to name. “I can’t have all of the Capitol clamoring for him or I’d never get my gold-flecked, tessellated blazer in time for the Games!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Define the Capitol’s Style: “I really don’t know much about the dress sense of the Districts, but the Capitol style is all about an eclectic, adventurous spirit mixed with a healthy dose of madcap spunk, finished up with enough sparkle and color to put the entire rainbow out of business! Does that answer your question?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Your Coiffure: Claudius is known across the furthest reaches of Panem for his signature hair - angelic blond curls softly teased into a cotton candy confection. “I’ll never tell,” he winks, in response to pleas for how he does it. “I’ve given up enough secrets today!”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="postContent"&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;#LOOKYOURBEST: DISTRICT STYLE CHALLENGES COME TO AN ELEGANT CLOSE&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Congratulations, stylish citizens of Panem! We have finally reached the end of the road in choosing the three remaining official Stylists, and they are worth the wait. These three took the command “Lookyourbest” to a whole new level: the Capitol finery they wore to the Games almost took our attention away from the action in the arena! Click below to see the creativity that keeps Panem’s stylish heart beating.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In addition to having their work featured in the storied pages of Capitol Couture, winners will also receive a commemorative DIP featuring the coveted “Stylist” badge. And if your design didn’t win, don’t give up hope: we still have to announce the grand prize winners for each District Style Challenge!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!-- more --&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2ms0gozvd1r8c567o1_500.jpg" width="467"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Winner: Annikki Woods&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Hibiscus hues are haute for the 74th Hunger Games, and Stylist Annikki Woods complements the trend with oversize blooms to up the floral ante - this Citizen truly has a rosy outlook!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2ms0qj68C1r8c567o1_500.jpg" width="467"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Winner: Ariana Carbonaro&lt;br/&gt;Tumblr: &lt;a href="http://will-you-wont-you.tumblr.com" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://will-you-wont-you.tumblr.com" target="_blank"&gt;http://will-you-wont-you.tumblr.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Stylist Ariana Carbonaro understands how to make a statement when dressing for the Games - she’s clearly rooting for D12, using golden mockingjay accents to complement her snow-white, feathered gown. The Capitol is rooting for you, Ariana!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2ms0zdJDv1r8c567o1_500.jpg" width="467"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Winner: Leticia Ann Sanidad&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; D1 Stylist Leticia Ann Sanidad certainly knows to take advantage of her home district: she’s created gold brocade confections festooned with ivory lace. If that isn’t the definition of luxury, the Capitol doesn’t know what is! Well done, Leticia Ann.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;PEETA HAS BEEN PREPPED: DISTRICT STYLE CHALLENGE 3 WINNERS ANNOUNCED&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The chic-ness of you fabulous citizens (even outside the Capitol!) continues to amaze us! The ensembles you put together for Peeta’s all-important interview with Caesar Flickerman were fantastic - and from the entries, we pulled three more sartorial savants to act as official Stylists. Click below to see how the winners are keeping Peeta on trend this Hunger Games.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In addition to having their work featured in the storied pages of Capitol Couture, winners will also receive a commemorative DIP featuring the coveted “Stylist” badge. And if your design didn’t win, don’t give up hope: we still have to announce the grand prize winners for each District Style Challenge!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;!-- more --&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2mrzlrEvT1r8c567o1_500.jpg" width="467"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Winner: Curt Welteroth&lt;br/&gt; Tumblr: &lt;a href="http://lavishvelvetknights.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lavishvelvetknights.tumblr.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://lavishvelvetknights.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Stylist Curt Welteroth takes the conceptual, high-fashion route, using asymmetrical details and contrasting colors to create an of-the-moment outfit that speaks just as loudly as Peeta himself. Compliments from the Capitol, Curt!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2mrzvIDon1r8c567o1_500.jpg" width="467"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Winner: Jessica Wilmart&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Peeta’s rough-and-tumble leather suit is softened by velvet and silk detailing: Stylist Jessica Wilmart perfectly grasps the delicate combination of D12 and Capitol sensibilities. Brilliant work, Jessica!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
