Eye looks complemented Versace’s couture at the Fall-Winter ’21 show. The Hadid sisters and Precious Lee showed off their colourful monotone eye makeup and glossy nude lips, courtesy makeup artist Pat McGrath. Straight shiny hair, combined with Versace branded headscarves completed the models’ runway look.
Prabal Gurung
Prabal Gurung’s models who walked for his Pre-Fall/Fall 2021 Collection, ‘In the mood for love’ flaunted slicked back hair, tight single plaits with curled and styled baby hair by stylist Evanie Frausto. Brightly painted lips and cat eyeliner by makeup artist Romero Jennings, provided a flick of drama to the Gurung’s polka dot designs.
Ferragamo
Stunning in silver; makeup artist Fara Homidi’s work embraced futuristic silver skinthetics & sci-fi lips. Ferragamo’s Milan Fashion Week’s closing look had the models dipped in silver, lips painted in apple red and edged with metallic silver.
Moschino
Makeup ‘artist’ takes on a whole new meaning at Moschino’s Fall Winter show. With a variety of different themes at the show, jungle, farm, and old Hollywood, the museum theme had models with their faces painted in wide strokes by makeup maven Kabuki.

Hairstylist Guido Palau showed preference for slicked back hair, with a glossy sheen at Italian luxury brand Prada’s FW 21 presentation. Makeup expert Pat McGrath uses metallic and pastel tones on the models’ eyes. In a shimmering duality, one model donned silver on one eyelid and gold on the other.
Kim Shui
Couture with prints, patterns and splashes of colours blended with the bold beauty looks at Kim Shui’s New York Fashion Week 2021 show. Sean Bennett uses the models’ hair as a base to create show stopping looks with metallic gold hoops, tightly curved braids, and a myriad of headpieces. The makeup look is kept simple and neutral by artist Kento Outsubo.
Dior

The Palace of Versailles was not the only magical part of Dior’s Paris Fashion Week show. The dramatic half-complete smoky eyes by Peter Philips is a beauty look you could definitely try to recreate at home. Leaving the centre of the eyelid neutral, Philips uses Dior’s makeup line to accent the edges with a heavy black shadow.
Altuzarra
Vivid beauty brows make an appearance on Altuzarra’s runway, under the hand of makeup artist Stevie Huynh. Shades of blue and orange top the models’ entire brow area, more concentrated in the centre, making it a true work of art.
Coperni

At Paris Fashion Week, all eyes were on the glittering models of Coperni’s show. Makeup artist Fara Homidi used raw edged crystals to adorn the eyelids of models walking the ramp. Combined with the solid tones of Coperni’s FW21 clothes, Homidi’s “post pandemic glam” dazzles the runway.
Giambattista Valli
Playful and eclectic eye makeup seems to be the flavour of the season at Paris Fashion Week. Makeup artist Helene Vasnier uses the models at Giambattista Valli’s show as her canvas to create looks in bright pinks, teal, neon, and metallic silver. Pearl headbands contrasted the colourful eyes to add a touch of old-world glamour.
