Fashion month s half-way mark saw this week s best beauty Instagrams centering on graphic, unexpected details—and a collective lean toward shades of blue. For one Khadra sister, an exchange of lid-level aqua for a more shimmering iteration of the same spectrum—edged in a Pop art-inspired onyx outline—offered a jumping off point for a star-spangled manicure, a rumpled chop, and a duet of expressive hair accessories. An assemblage of colorful and shimmering snakes (dreamed up by Peter Phillips) slithered over model Luisana González s glowing complexion to pleasing effect, while makeup artist Lucy Bridge s high-impact gaze was built of eye-echoing delineations of glitter.
For Bella Hadid, a feline flick of liner was best paired with under-eye swipes of red and white and a splash of London sun, as elsewhere, FKA twigs got her shine from a few well-placed facial adornments, two smile-enhancers among them. And while most of the models at Moschino offered a visual time portal to the era of Jackie O, Soo Joo Park was given an alien-minded adaptation of the retro look: beneath a blanched bouffant wig, the model s skin was painted allover in sky blue, taking the trend to a level not yet identified.
