Lucy Boynton has embarked on her goth-girl era, and it’s been a gradual but captivating transformation. From sporting a rouge noir lip to adorning her face with harlequin-esque embellishments, she’s now taken her dark allure to a new level. During the promotion of her latest film Chevalier, where she portrays Marie Antoinette, Lucy revealed the ultimate smoky eye that embodies goth-girl dreams.
Created by the talented celebrity makeup artist Alex Babsky, Lucy’s intense smoky eye is a skillful blend of charcoal and gray, accentuated with a solitary glistening jewel, resembling a teardrop, delicately placed on her lower lashes. This look captures the essence of the smudged, mascara-streaked aesthetic adored by fans of Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance during the Noughties. However, Lucy’s interpretation takes it to a whole new level, elevating it to what we now call “elevated emo.” It’s a polished and refined version of the edgy emo style, exuding a captivating moody allure.
To complete her stunning appearance, Lucy Boynton elegantly swept back her auburn locks, creating a trending sculptural bun that showcased her flawless porcelain complexion. Adding to the gothic allure, her nails were painted in a striking midnight black shade, adding that extra touch of vamp to her overall look.
The outfit choice was nothing short of gothic glamour, as Lucy donned a captivating purple metallic gown from the cult New York brand Honor. The gown featured intricate lace detailing and long billowing sleeves, exuding an air of timeless elegance. With this ensemble, Lucy Boynton truly embodied the essence of a modern-day 18th-century queen, combining historical charm with contemporary fashion in a mesmerizing manner.
