Life Imitates Art
L'OFFICIEL Malaysia|November 2020
Much like how makeup enthusiasts everywhere live for that one show-stopping beauty moment on both the big and small screen, the fashion world too cannot get enough of them. Case in point: these four Fall/Winter 2020 runway looks are evidently a nod to the all-consuming beauty influence from our favourite movies and television series.

BIRDS OF PREY (2019)

DC fan or not, everyone knows Harley Quinn. The mischievous yet unlikely hero, famously portrayed by Margot Robbie, is widely known as both a wild card and certified style icon. Apart from her lunatic and unpredictable personality that instantly clicked with the audience, her fun costumes as well as quirky makeup have been emulated by many—even going as far as reaching the top of the search trend every Halloween season. And while turning to Harley Quinn for inspiration this season may not be the most original idea, it certainly didn’t stop Christian Siriano from bringing the beloved villainess to life on the runway. To complement his mythical and playful collection that is heavily influenced by the blockbuster Birds Of Prey, Siriano had global makeup artist Eric Parsons recreate Quinn’s key looks on the models. This involved lining the eyes with a black liner, painting a pair of stunning hot pink pout and most importantly, drawing the signature black heart decal above the right cheekbone.
