Fashion month has come to a close. Paris Fashion Week– the final city of the Spring-Summer 2024– ended with many surprise celebrities walking the runway for some of fashion’s top designers. From the icon Angela Bassett strutting for Mugler, to FKA Twigs’ performance at Valentino, the shows in Paris weren’t ones you’d want to miss. And, of course, to tie everything together were eye-catching beauty looks.
Louis Vuitton, for one, was all about ’90s, French-inspired makeup by Pat McGrath. The show was a love letter to taupe eyeshadow. Meanwhile, for Rick Owens, an otherwise no-makeup makeup look went dark with black-colored contacts. And per most fashion months– the minimal makeup trend was alive and well thanks to shows like Ferragamo.
As for hair? Saint Laurent kept the models’ tresses concealed — which meant head covers or short, picked out afros. For Acne Studios, middle parted, flyaway-free strands were front and center. Overall, as we look back, it’s clear that this season was a reminder that less is more: dark brown lips or knife-sharp liners go a long way.
In case you missed the shows, below, find 7 standout beauty looks from Paris Fashion Week.
