You don’t have to be a regular on the film or fashion circuit to have heard about Gemma Chan. For some, the English actress first made an impression as the fabulous Astrid Leong-Teo in Crazy Rich Asians. While others might recognise her from her ongoing ventures in Hollywood’s biggest franchises, including the Eternals and Captain Marvel, Chan is easily one of the most sought after and versatile actors we have today. Beyond the silver screen, Chan has been a quiet red carpet fixture—shutting down the carpet with her signature brand of elegance and beauty. And as a UNICEF UK ambassador, she sure knows how to be a hero off-screen too, using her platform to champion important causes with the same passion she brings to every role.
Her ambassadorships with sartorial heavyweights like Louis Vuitton and L’Oréal Paris have made her a global icon for fashion and beauty alike. With her rapidly growing resume, there is no doubt that Chan has surely made her mark. And by the looks of it, she’s only just getting started. As of 2025, this includes being named the latest global ambassador for Cartier and stepping into the role of a producer, with projects such as Rise of the Empress and the upcoming adaption of Pim Wangtechawat’s novel The Moon Represents My Heart. Whether she’s busy captivating our screens or reinventing herself on the red carpet, Chan has proved that she’s a woman full of grace, limitless talent and a multi-faceted beauty—both inside and out.
From her signature red lip to a multidimensional smokey eye, Vogue Singapore presents a curation of Gemma Chan’s best beauty looks.

Party ready
Nothing screams party ready quite like a smouldering smokey cat eye. One that works its way down to the eye-line—for extra drama. Pair it with a nude lip like Chan did for Vogue Singapore’s June cover shoot, and let your eyes do all the talking.

Power pout
When it comes to a red lip, no one wears it quite like Chan. At the red carpet of the movie ‘Eternals’ during the 16th Rome Film Fest in 2021, she stunned in a bold cherry hue that perfectly complemented her look. A classic red lip after all, can be the ultimate head turner.

Keeping it classy
Channeling her inner Audrey Hepburn at the opening of the 2025 V&A Cartier exhibition, Chan’s sleek old Hollywood-esque bun stole the show, with a loose hanging tendril to soften the look.

All that glitters
At the 2019 Met Gala, Chan went full ice queen with this Elizabeth Taylor inspired headgear; a fitting finish to her Tom Ford gown, might we add.
