ASHLEY WILLIAMS FW18 MAKEUP

Earlier this year I saw a Chinese opera poster in the MTR and noticed the way their makeup exaggerates all contours and highlights. They do this to make stage performers’ facial expressions be more visible to the audience sitting far away, but what always confused me was their choice in contour colors… Red, against paper white skin.

This odd thought changed when I came across the Ashley Williams FW18 fashion show, basically all the models was having that same makeup that almost looks almost identical to Chinese opera makeup, but with black lips. Guess China is becoming a leading trend now.

FW18 WOMEN’S TREND : UNDERCOVER

People really weren’t wrong when they predicted in 2013 that it would become more and more insignificant to hide certain body parts like thighs, butt, boobs etc. With major celebrities like Kendall Jenner or Gigi Hadid not wearing a bra out or simply just wearing a top that’s so sheer you can see the nipples, it’s really becoming less and less of a big deal now because #feminism. Bigger brands using this element has made the idea seem even less cheap than it originally was, which is actually really inspiring for me. I’d one day like to be bold enough to wear a sheer top like Dennis Basso and Balmain, but for now, I’d still prefer to wear a bralette underneath.
