Beauty was served with a Bratz twist at the Marc Jacobs spring 2026 show on Monday night, where Manhattan socialites, influencers and fashion insiders celebrated an early start to New York Fashion Week with the designer's latest collection, "Memory. Loss."
The front row was rife with '90s attitude, as was the runway. Pin curls were teamed with dramatic makeup by the likes of Julia Fox and Tina Leung, while singer Monica and Nicky Hilton Rothschild injected life into their high ponytails. Here, WWD takes a look at the best beauty on the sidelines of the Marc Jacobs spring show.
Julia Fox
Fox painted a sea of lavender shadow over her eyes, blending the soft hue with charcoal and black liner in her waterline. The dark hue was cut from the outer corners of her eyes to her temple and just below her bleached brows. Fox opted for no mascara, only a thick line of liquid black above her lashes. Her cheeks and lips matched with a similar purple-tinged shade, while her hair was styled in neat pin curls around her head. Fox tapped makeup artist Jake Dupont and hair artist John Novotny to help create her dark and stormy aesthetic.
Tina Leung
Leung was the archetype Marc Jacobs doll on Monday night, with unruly curls and a red wine lips. The stylist and content creator pulled her blond hair into a disheveled updo, exposing the inky hue at her roots. Her makeup, with the exception of her matte lipstick, was even-toned and glowy; her skin like a porcelain doll. Meanwhile, Leung's nails brought the maximalism, with beads and plastic charms glued on top. The hair and makeup was courtesy of Timothy Aylward and Soo Park, respectively. WWD has reached out to confirm the manicurist who created her silver talons.
Monica
Monica tapped Ricky Wing to slick her hair in a high ponytail and trim micro bangs just above her brows. Rather than leaving her ends straight, she added a bit of bounce by flipping them '60s style. Her makeup was, for the most part, shielded by her sunglasses, leaving only her brown and nude lip to shine. The music artist typically collaborates with makeup artist Eva Kim; however, it's not certain Kim was behind her Monday night look. WWD has reached out for confirmation.
Nicky Hilton Rothschild
Hilton Rothschild made her case for the return of coquette - a post-pandemic trend centered around hyper-feminine fashion - with a half-up pony secured by a satin ribbon, which mirrored the design on her Marc Jacobs dress. The look was crafted by Valerie Vanessa. Her makeup, styled by Joel Vasquez, was just as flirtatious, featuring wispy lashes, rosy blush and a glossy lip.
Ashtin Earle
Influencer and soon-to-be reality star Ashtin Earle took a walk on the wild side, pairing a Gothic eye with a pink lip with the help of makeup artist Sandy Nicha. Black and charcoal shimmer cast a shadow over her lids, reaching up under her razor-thin brows. Her waterline was filled with black liner, which melted into the corners of her eyes. Thanks to Vincent Pelletier, Earle's hair was pulled back into two half-up ponytails; the long ends falling down her back.
CT Hedden
Model and fashion muse CT Hedden cut through the glass skin noise, as they often do, with a full beat. A stark white hue covered the artist's face and brows, from the hairline to the chin, while only a light layer of blush was used to contour the cheekbones. Long, spider-lashes were glued over a smoky blue and black shadow on the lids and around the eyes. Two freckles were carefully drawn on the right side of the face above an over-lined red lip. WWD has reached out to confirm if the creator collaborated with a makeup or hair artist to help achieve their Monday night aesthetic.
