The fashions will not be the only thing discussed and dissected during the 2019 New York Fashion Week. Trendcasters will report on the hair and makeup trends seen on the runway and which ones were a hit and which ones were a miss. If you are lucky enough to attend Fashion Week this February, these are the beauty looks you will see strutting down the runway.
Bright Eyes
Over the top eye color will be all over the runway at this year’s Fashion Week. Teal and coral eye shadow will be very popular shades with makeup artists applying the shadow liberally using color blocking techniques. Drama is created with the application of pastel eye shadow in interesting geometric shapes. Eyeliner is another tool used to create drama around the eyes with lines drawn in matte black and then outlined in matte white.
Classic Beauty
Old Hollywood glamour will be all the rage on this year’s fashion runways. Bright red lipstick is back with a vengeance, but the crimson hue is also going to be used to create sultry eyes. Matte makeup will remain popular on the runway to enhance the dramatic effect of a bold lip and ultraglam eyes.
Gold and Bronze
Metallic shades are eye-catching and bold, making them a consistent choice for runway makeup applications. Gold and bronze eye shadow, lip color, blush, and nail color will lend a futuristic vibe to designers with modern fashions. Metallic makeup is also perfect for retro styles. A golden smoky eye looks will give models a throwback 1970s vibe.
K-Beauty Inspiration
Emerging Korean beauty trends will make their debut on runways at the upcoming Fashion Week. The seamless blending of pastel colors around the eyes will be one high-fashion makeup trend to note. Splashes of pink, purple, orange and yellow eye shadows blend around the eyes to add dimension to the face. Another Korean beauty trend is dewy all-natural skin with only a small amount of glow serum while choosing bold contrasting eye and lip colors.
