Her makeup was done by celebrity glam squad hotshot Alex Babsky who went for a "super-classic" look, and revealed that he actually "covered the ends of Florence's brows" in order to give her shorter-looking, more Audrey Hepburn-esque arches to compliment her micro bangs and fan-inspired updo, created by hairstylist Peter Lux.
