With New York and London fashion weeks delivering plenty of beauty inspiration, it’s now Milan’s turn to shine.

The Milan Fashion Week shows are proving that neon and pastel colours are here to stay, along with metallics and dramatic eye makeup. See the dreamy eyelids at Angel Chen and gold-painted lips at the Anteprima show. Meanwhile, Prada turned to the 90s for makeup inspiration and Max Mara channelled everyone’s favourite goth, Wednesday Addams. 

Read on to see all the best hair and makeup moments from Milan Fashion Week:

Iconic makeup artist Pat McGrath was the behind the bold beauty look for Prada, which included dramatic black arcs under the brow bone and white pigments in the corners of the eye. For lips, McGrath choose a velvety matte lipstick with intense pigmentation.

Tiziana Guardini

Ice blue eyeshadow was dusted around the models’ eyes for the Tiziana Guardini show. The rest of the look was kept minimal with glossy lips, as all the attention focused on the accessory – blue wire fashioned into a head piece.

Angel Chen

For the Angel Chen show, a palette of pastel watercolours were blended beneath the eyes, with a blue hue under the lash line and yellow brushed out towards the temples.

Moschino

Inspired by Spanish art and culture, the Moschino show was full of colour, pattern and homage. Strokes of paint were brushed into the models’ hair in shades of yellow, pink, blue, green and red, which were offset by a classic red lip and sleek cat eye.

Max Mara

Makeup artist Tom Pecheux packed powder blue eyeshadow across the lid and made a contrasting statement with dark matte lipstick. The models’ hair were done in Wednesday Addams-style plaits to create the perfect goth look.
