As it turns out, French girl beauty is as simple as a strategic bit of color coordination. The classic shade in question is crisp crimson, a hue that Léa Seydoux relied on for eye-catching beauty detailing at the Paris premiere of Wes Anderson s Isle of Dogs, which screened last night at Cinema Gaumont Capucine. Though Seydoux s immaculate red lip was strong enough to stand on its own, the actress opted for a perfectly matched manicure, the multi-level pops of cardinal making for an aspirational moment.
Seydoux supplemented with radiance, lids pressed in a shimmering peach shadow that set off a series of golden notes: her glossy, shoulder-skimming chop (worn ever-so-slightly rumpled, another Parisienne cue), a set of gilded sunburst earrings, and the bright buttons that adorned her Louis Vuitton skirt and over-the-shoulder peacoat. The lesson? A femme fatale feel is best achieved with colors as bold as the trope itself.
