Editor’s note
The 2024 Spring/Summer street fashion, particularly in the context of the S/S runway shows held in the world's four major fashion capitals, was scrutinized for how makeup and hair trends have evolved into real-way styles. A predominant theme was minimalistic styling and restrained color palettes, echoing the runway's luxurious but understated makeup and hairstyling. This trend seems to be an extension of the soft grunge look and no-makeup look observed in the last 24 S/S ready-to-wear collections, with foundational makeup elements like red full lips and moisture-plumping skin makeup.
In this column, we delve into the street fashion makeup trends compared to the collections, sharing insights into the experimentations with makeup.
1. Smokey Eyes Captured Inside

The realm of smokey eye makeup has transformed. Unlike the traditional approach, which achieves a layered gradient effect by covering the entire eyelid, this collection witnessed a change. Black eyeshadow was applied only up to the crease, mimicking the appearance of thick eyeliner. The focus was on enhancing the horizontal length rather than the vertical, giving the illusion of larger eyes.

2. All That Red

Vivid red has emerged as the mega-trend color in lip makeup, manifesting in various shades with different brightness levels in the real way. The use of red as a bold point color gives an impression of minimal makeup yet somehow achieves a look that is both complete and maximalist. This might be what epitomizes classic makeup. While runways showcased red lips in various textures like glossy and matte, real-way trends predominantly display matte textures, focusing on the entire shape of the lips.

In the Dior ’22 spring haute couture collection, Peter Philips used white eyeliner to highlight the makeup. At that time, the white liner was thought to brighten the face, while black eye makeup emphasized classicism.

4. Jello Skin
Paris
NY
London
Jello skin refers to a complexion that radiates natural luminosity from within, akin to America's iconic Jell-O - transparent yet firm pudding.
Upon first meeting, we often assess someone's condition by their complexion. The skin, covering the largest area of the face, is always deemed beautiful and healthy when transparent and glowing.

5. Scarf Hair Styling
NY
Paris
Milan
As seen in Lola Casademunt's ready-to-wear runway, scarf hair styling has made a comeback. This revival hair trend, which cannot overlook headbands, can be interpreted as a modernized version of the 90s hairstyles.
