For once, these fashion models don't just look like robots by accident. The make-up artist for yesterday's Marios Schwab fashion show in London modeled the models' faces on "Battlestar Galactica android aliens." That included bleaching the eyebrows, using pale foundation, and putting reflective gloss on eyelids, says artist Val Garland with Revlon. "It's all about a very blank face," she added.

These Cylons need a sandwich.
What's the diff? Same cold robotic looks as at any other seemingly typical fashion show. Give them a chrome helmet and some LEDs.
@san_marino: It's so true. Maybe a Baltar sandwich? Sorry, couldn't resist.
@ManchuCandidate: I think it's the bleached eyebrows and ultra-pasty faces that sets them apart.
I applaud these fashion types who have been able to get beyond the whole "pretty" thing...
I like the look. Very hip.
Except the whole point of the rebooted Cylons is that they look like perfectly normal humans.
(Well, OK, the females are all improbably attractive, but so are the female non-Cylons in BSG.)
Clearly, what we actually need is some Centurions in haute couture, flouncing down the catwalk.
"And turn, and kick, and be fabulous!"
"BY YOUR COMMAND."
Cylons are not robots, they are people!!!!
He "...modeled the models' faces on 'Battlestar Galactica android aliens.'"
Right, that's what we typically refer to Cylons as. This Schwab is full of shit.
@san_marino:
And some pizza, and some ice cream.
I TOTALLY need a nude sheath with hip cut-outs to wear over my mom jeans!
WTFah!? When I saw the headline I thought I was gonna see some Centurions decked out in Armani! I am so mad right now. YOU DECIEVE!
