Kat, Depending on what look you're going for, you might have an issue using pressed powders with runway lighting. If you're used to a certain intensity, they will be faded-out by the lighting. Remember that the lighting is focused on the runway area for the attendees to see the clothes, so it's going to be more intense and that tends to wash-out powders.
Things to consider: Are the models doing a series or single walk? Strap lines, sleeve length and necklines can play a role in changing the the look of the body art design and the clothes. It can also be covered or smeared when pulling on "top-load dresses". (Step-in dress - bottom load. Pull-over-head dress - top load) The key is to talk to the show coordinator and be able to see the sketches of the outfits your designing AND find out how the models get into them. NOTE: I'm sure you have already done many of these things, but I put it here for those "just reading". Good luck & send us pics!!! Kat B.
