All the times make-up stole the show at fashion weeks Maison Margiela's Artisanal SS 2024 collection was not the only one to redefine the relationship between make-up and fashion

Since last Thursday, when Maison Margiela closed Paris Fashion Week with its Artisanal SS 2024 show, that's all anyone is talking about. Of course, discussions revolve around the show, a true decadent cabaret that featured actress Gwendoline Christie among its protagonists. Certainly, everyone was mesmerized by the deconstructed garments and meticulous details (just look at the gloves or the trompe-l'œil on some pieces). But what has monopolized the attention of every social media platform, website, and magazine is the makeup created by Pat McGrath, transforming the models' faces into eerie porcelain dolls. How did she achieve that extreme glass skin effect? The theories abound, and everyone is on the hunt for the magical product. Is it Kryolan's Liquid Glass or a peel-off face mask like Freeman Cucumber Peel Off Mask, mixed with water? Or could it be a product soon to be launched by Pat's brand? The hype is real.

Indeed, fashion weeks often anticipate beauty trends we'll be flaunting in the future, but the work of makeup artists often surpasses that of designers, overshadowing the runway outfits in popularity and media resonance. This has happened many times in the past, with some of the most unforgettable and impactful looks coming from shows by John Galliano, sometimes in collaboration with McGrath. But there are many others; we've chosen a few. Which is your favorite makeup look?

Chanel FW 1992 Couture

For Rodarte's FW 2023 fashion show, the Mulleavy sisters thought of a gothic fairy tale, inspired by Anjelica Huston's Morticia Addams, especially in the make-up. James Kaliardos focused on graphic looks of black eyeliner for a strong, bold effect. Kaliardos and the NARS team gave the models' skin a radiant glow by using NARS' Radiant Creamy Concealer and Orgasm Four Play Palette for blush, then focused on the eyes. They used tape and an eyebrow pencil to create the shapes, then applied NARS Climax liquid eyeliner to fill in the color. Finally, they added several coats of Nars Climax Mascara. On the lips a matte black or blue rosette, while the stiletto nails were glossy black. The end result was stunning and achieved more resonance than the fashion show itself.
