The Jean-Paul Gaultier Runway is a Tangerine Dream
So far, the Paris couture runways have been a parade of orange makeup — from Chanel’s peach lips and cheeks to Alberta Ferretti’s bright, red-orange lips and Armani’s soft orange draping, it’s been a tangerine dream. On Wednesday, Jean-Paul Gaultier took the trend to the next level with a vibrant, almost fluorescent hue.

With a canvas of fresh, undone skin, eyes were painted with a matte red-orange shadow from the upper lashline to the brows.
Select models’ lips were varnished in a similar shade, and the contrasting finishes of shiny lips and matte eyes gave the look dimension.

From textured coifs to waist-length fishtail braids, hair was fierce and bold.
Hairstylist Odile Gilbert embraced models’ natural hair texture, creating a each with her own unique and intricate look.

JPG isn’t the first runway to debut unique looks for each model.
Also on Wednesday, Maison Margiela sent models down the runway, no two looking alike; and Dior’s last season called for graphic eyeliner customized to each model’s eye shape. We love to see designers embracing beauty as a testament to individual tastes and personalities.
