Glowing in green, dancer Danielle Peazer is clicking her heels together in a anticipation of Badgley Mischka's collection.

"They do the most stunning dresses I'm so excited for the show," she says.

Red carpet reporter Guiliana Rancic looks white hot in route to the front row.

"A lot of times on the red carpet I say who are you wearing and they say Badgley Mischka," says Rancic.

And they wear it well -- the models sashay down the runway wearing long coats and dresses that are anything but subtle.

"Super super luxury but very comfortable that was our quest this season. We really discovered that our customer has nothing against opulence. She loves it more than ever but she wants to be comfortable," says designer Mark Badgley.

The coats are off the charts ... gold leaf patterns, leopard and metallics.

Makeup artist Tom Pecheux plays off of the sparkle.

"The collection is powerful ... quite dramatic. A lot of black and gold," he says.

The hair is parted on the side with the top pinned back.

"I wanted to create a round silhouette, almost like a painting. You paint the head shape in," says Peter Gray Stylist.

Heads turned when the fur and pill box hats hit the catwalk .. a little wink to the weather outside.

"We are showing a lot of hats which we never do but it's been so bloody cold all the girls we know have been wearing hats so we had fun with very glamourous hats," says Badgley.
