And just like that, yet another season of Fashion Weeks from the world’s style capitals has flown by. This conclusion was marked with the end of Paris Fashion Week on October 4. Fortunately for beauty aficionados, the Paris Fashion Week SS23 beauty looks on the runways were every bit as chic as you would expect from the elegant city.
Whereas the season’s previous Fashion Weeks have also played host to experimental beauty approaches alongside more classic miens like dewy skin and red lips, it was in Paris that the distinction between these two cosmetic camps was most blurred.
When it came to the looks at Paris, rather than veer towards the overtly unconventional, most commonly observed was a timeless beauty base accentuated with eye-catching, atypical details. Call it that inimitable Parisian je ne sais quoi, but the extraordinary was made attainable through stunningly subtle touches. There was the azure eyeshadow paired with blue nails at Off White. Separated lashes reminiscent of ‘60s supermodels like Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton at Givenchy. Silver hoops adorning face-framing micro-braids at Eenk.
Take your next styling cues from these runways and elevate your everyday beauty with an injection of Parisian glamour. Below, the most chic of Paris Fashion Week SS23 beauty looks:
