The Dior Fall 2019 Couture collection wasn't just about the clothes; it was a complete statement, a holistic vision encompassing every aspect of beauty. And central to this vision was the eye makeup, a departure from the classic, perhaps even expected, smoky eye. Instead of relying on the retro-glamour of a traditionally arched smoky eye, Dior's makeup artist opted for a completely fresh approach, one that resonated with the collection's overall theme and captured the spirit of the season. This article will delve into the specifics of the Dior eyeshadows (Lidschatten) featured prominently in the Fall 2019 collection, examining their textures, colours, application techniques, and the overall impact they had on the runway looks. We'll explore the different categories this innovative eye makeup fell into, from the "Wild Earth" inspired palettes to the reimagined smoky eye, touching upon the face and undereye makeup that complemented them.
Beyond the Classic Smoky Eye: Redefining "Smokey Eyes: Der Make-up"
The Fall 2019 collection challenged the conventions of the classic smoky eye. While the smoky eye remained a cornerstone of many makeup looks, Dior's interpretation transcended the traditional understanding. Instead of relying on heavily blended, dark shadows that created a dramatic, almost theatrical effect, the focus shifted towards texture and subtle depth. The "Smokey Eyes: Der Make-up" approach seen in the Dior show was less about sharp contrasts and more about creating a soft, diffused smoky effect that enhanced the eyes without overpowering the overall look. This was achieved through a careful layering of eyeshadows, utilizing a range of textures from matte to shimmer, to achieve a multi-dimensional effect. The colour palettes were carefully chosen to complement the overall aesthetic, moving away from the typical black and grey smoky eye towards warmer, earthier tones.
Wild Earth: Natural Inspiration Meets High Fashion
The "Wild Earth" theme permeated the entire Dior Fall 2019 collection, influencing not only the clothing designs but also the makeup choices. The eyeshadow palettes reflected this natural inspiration, featuring earthy tones like deep browns, muted oranges, and subtle greens. These colours weren't harsh or jarring; instead, they were subtly blended and layered to create a sense of natural depth and dimension. The textures were also crucial; a mix of matte and shimmer shadows allowed for both depth and luminosity, creating an eye look that was both sophisticated and naturally beautiful. This approach mirrored the collection's clothing, which often featured natural fabrics and earthy tones, creating a cohesive and harmonious overall aesthetic. The "Wild Earth" eyeshadows were designed to be versatile, easily adaptable to different skin tones and adaptable to both day and night looks.
