From sculptural updos—like the one worn at the Golden Globes by KPop Demon Hunters singer EJAE—to the vivid eye makeup musician Zara Larsson has been embracing, lots of exciting beauty trends are already emerging in 2026. With awards season just ramping up, Vogue beauty editors Margaux Anbouba and Arden Fanning Andrews joined Chioma on The Run-Through this week to share what they anticipate seeing on red carpets in the months ahead.
Arden is all in on what she calls “romantic beauty”—soft makeup and windswept hair—inspired by all the period dramas this year, including Wuthering Heights (don’t forget to join our book club!), Sense and Sensibility (set for release in September), and Netflix’s forthcoming Pride and Prejudice series. Margaux, on the other hand, thinks we’ll be opting for “imperfect beauty”—meaning leaning into messier aesthetics online as a counter to the rise of AI. But both editors agreed that bobs are here to stay—even if they’re also both planning to grow out their hair this year.
But first, earlier in the episode, Vogue Business editor Maddie Schulz breaks down what’s really going on behind the Saks Fifth Avenue bankruptcy and what fashion’s “reset” may actually look like. Plus, Chloe and Chioma share their takes on the menswear shows so far and reflect on the death of Valentino Garavani.
