As Kristen Stewart continues to comb through a menu of close-cropped coifs, it seems a side of well-executed eye makeup is the ideal accompaniment. And for last night s Museum of Modern Art Film Benefit Tribute to Julianne Moore in New York City, the filmmaker reminded onlookers that, even before she sheared her rumpled lengths, she was a master of the gaze-enhancing makeup moment.
Stewart stepped out for her Still Alice co-star in an ombré mullet-like chop, her bleached tips spiked up, her brunette roots combed back, and her blanched ends left loose to curl over the nape of the neck. The gelled and multi-tonal sensibility was echoed perfectly by a clever smoky eye. But rather than reaching for onyx liner or her trademark brushing of burgundy, Stewart rimmed her almond eyes in a burnished brown that extended away from the outer corners, leaving her inner corners touched with a pressing of soft gold. The overall artistry was an eye-level parallel to her punkish mop, perfectly reimagined right down to the texture of her heavily mascaraed lashes. Just add a pink lip and a smattering of silver chains, and Stewart has created yet another new classic.
