Goth makeup has always been around—just look at the definitive black eyeliner and berry lips of the '90s grunge era for proof. But recently, it's taken on a new life: sculpted, sleek, and remarkably elevated. At Schiaparelli's Haute Couture show, the Mother of makeup, Pat McGrath, pushed the aesthetic into high-fashion territory with glossy black lips, subtly smoked eyes, and skin so contoured, it looked carved.
"Pat’s makeup direction for the Schiaparelli show was like the perfect wine and food pairing," says celebrity makeup artist Karina Milan. "While most shy away from a dark, bold lip, this runway proved that a black lip can be worn elegantly, and it doesn't have to be placed in a punk box."
