Paris Fashion Week Spring 2015 Trend Alert: Makeup as Jewelry

How’s this for an oddball trend? Ear makeup! Just like New York, London, and Milan before it, the makeup looks at Paris Fashion Week have been overwhelmingly minimal this season, but one of the first unexpected trends to emerge is makeup as jewelry.

Vaccarello clp RS15 0038

To complement their understated makeup Anthony Vaccarello models had a faux “ear cuff” created using liquid liner and glitter on the earlobes. The tough-luxe finish worked well with the gelled, gym-inspired wet hair look we’ve been seeing on a number of runways.

Van Noten clp RS15 7195

To go with his signature prints (and grass covered runway!), Dries van Noten had his models walk the runway wearing faux gold lip rings created via a stroke of gold liner. Certainly a unique accessory…

What do you think about makeup as jewelry? Is this a trend that can translate into “real life?”
