Sartorial Shadows
The runways were aligned on one thing: Eyeshadow is back! At Sandy Liang, makeup artist Fara Homidi channeled “doll eyes” with colors pulled from the collection itself. While the fall and winter seasons typically usher in browns and burgundy shades, pastels will carry over from summer to fall, so keep your bright shadows out for the colder months.
Sartorial Shadows
Collina Strada traded inner eye highlight for inner eye color. The look was crafted by makeup artist Dick Page, who used Ilia Beauty’s new Eye Stylus Shadow Sticks in gold and olive green shimmer shades to create “little flashes of color on the inner corner of the eye” as decoration, he explains to Bazaar.
Matte Skin
Matte Skin
In the same vein, Pamella Roland sent models down the runway with matte, cloud-like skin and feminine pink cheeks.
Gloss Over
No-makeup-makeup was taken to greater heights when makeup artist James Boehmer created “just got out of the shower” makeup using Saie’s Glossybounce on the lids, lightly-curled lashes, and lips in a super-sheer pink shade for a natural sheen.
Gloss Over
Matte skin might be back, but the lips remain shiny and glossy. The makeup on TWP’s Fall/Winter 2025 runway was understated, yet it perfectly complemented the utilitarian collection with plump, glossy lips by makeup artist Romy Soleimani.
Dainty Nails
Our favorite nail look of the season features dainty pearls and the perfect brown hue for fall, as seen backstage at Meruert Tolegen.
One-Sided
It’s time to dust off your tail combs and side part skills because many designers, including Christopher John Rogers, defended the side part this season. At the CJR show, hairstylist Sonny Molina created a zig-zag part and a side bang, securing the style with Bumble and bumble’s Flexible Hold Hairspray.
One-Sided
Hairstylist Lacy Redway balanced a deep side part with tousled and textured hair at Prabal Gurung’s Fall/Winter 2025 runway show. To create volume at the root near the part, Redway used TRESemmé’s lightweight texture spray.
Shades of Gray
The runways featured a resurgence of cool-toned shadows–specifically airy, gray hues. At Tory Burch, Kendal gave a wash of gray across the lids, sans mascara or liner and against bare skin.
Shades of Gray
A more dramatic take on cool-toned shadows, Luar’s runway featured multiple shades of gray across models’s entire lids, courtesy of MAC Cosmetics makeup artist Terry Barber.
Vintage Glamour
Retro, high-fashion hair was major on the runways. At Anna Sui, models donned teased bouffant hair, courtesy of hairstylist Garren, who used R+Co Bleu’s thickening spray to add natural volume and its hairspray to keep the style in place.
Vintage Glamour
The bigger the hair, the better was the theme of Christian Cowan’s Fall/Winter 2025 runway show. The designer sent ‘60s-meets-alien hair, with sky-high volume and flipped ends.
Wing It
The eyes had it this season, and for Ulla Johnson’s runway, Soleimani created a subtle wing just at the outer corner of the eye using Sisley’s black liner.
Wing It
La Pointe’s runway also featured a sharp winged liner, perfectly paired with utilitarian brows, contoured cheeks, and pink lips.
