GEM DADDY: Both fashion and jewelry addicts will get a fix at the John Galliano show on Saturday when the designer will jazz up his fall offerings with a preview of his new fine jewels. Produced by upscale jeweler Valente, Galliano worked three themes — Topkapi-inspired daggers, flowers and coins. The mix of stones is of the edgy ilk with combinations of lapis lazuli, white and brown diamonds, cornel and orange sapphire, nestled in etched or lacey looking gold. The jewels will hit stores in the fall.

ROCK FACE: MAC Cosmetics and Emanuel Ungaro will launch a cobranded, limited edition makeup line this October. Comprising eight to 12 products, it's inspired by the colors and textures concocted for Wednesday's show. Makeup artist Sharon Dowsett, working with MAC, took newbie designer Esteban Cortazar's lead for the look. "Esteban gave me very great inspiration," she said, using words such as "organic" and "pebble." "I went a bit further along that path and went to see Monet's water lilies at the Orangerie." MAC has had only one other color cosmetics-designer tie-in to date; last year, it produced a limited edition makeup collection with Alexander McQueen, which hit counters in fall 2007.
