#LOOKYOURBEST: DISTRICT STYLE CHALLENGES COME TO AN ELEGANT CLOSE

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.

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.

AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH MAKE-UP MASTER/BEARD ARCHITECT VE NEILL

Citizens, it’s become pretty clear that a new up-and-comer has stolen the show this Hunger Games season — and we’re not talking about any tribute. Head Gamemaker Seneca Crane’s beard has become the talk of the Capitol, inspiring copy-cat creations all over town. While any old district citizen can pick up a razor, Capitol Couture went straight to the source - masterly make-up artist Ve Neill — to get an exclusive interview on how she crafted Panem’s best-tressed secret.

MAKE-UP YOUR MIND: VE NEILL CHOOSES THIS WEEK’S STYLISTS!

Ve Neill, famed Capitol make-up artist (and creator of Seneca’s incomparable beard), had high praise for the fabulous faces entered, and has chosen three more Stylists from the entries for our second Challenge. Click below to see the amazing designs Ve selected.

In addition to having their work featured in the storied pages of Capitol Couture, Stylists will also receive a commemorative DIP featuring the coveted “Stylist” badge. If you weren’t picked this time, don’t give up hope: we still have six more Stylists to choose in the weeks ahead! So keep entering!

Shoes? Check. Make-up? Check. Devastatingly fashionable ensemble to wear to one of the glamorous Hunger Games viewing parties? That’s what your fourth District Style Challenge is all about! Using the Capitol or your home district as inspiration, we want you to put together a stunning outfit that will make you the standout of any Hunger Games viewing party — we’re talking about a look that would put even Effie to shame.

NOTHING SAYS PARTY LIKE THE HUNGER GAMES: YOUR COMPLETE GUIDE

So you’re going to host a Hunger Games viewing party? Fantastic! Capitol Couture is more than happy to help. The following will tell you everything you need to host the most fabulous fête this side of the City Circle!

Jazz up the joint
The Hunger Games only happen once a year, so festoon, furbish, embellish, decorate, bedazzle, and bedeck until your party space is at max fabulousness.

Dress the part
The Tributes have been trotting out every fashion trick in the book. Don’t let a bunch of District kids upstage the host of the whole shindig. Buy that bronze-fiber blazer and splurge on those chinchilla-leather booties. Make no less than 15 wardrobe changes throughout the evening.

Keep it flowing
Luscious libations are the order of the day. Try a hickory-smoked nectarine spritzer, mojito ravioli or citrus-vapor cider.

Bigger is always better
No small screens, s’il vous plait. Think at least 96”. The Hunger Games are the grandest event of the year; your viewing station should reflect that.

Book that bookie
The Games are the most excellent time to size up the Tributes and make bets on the Games’ outcome. Be sure to have a bookie on hand so your guests may gamble comfortably.
