Olivia Dean's Beauty Styles Capture the Essence of Rom-Coms: 9 Instances That Won Our Hearts.

      Some singers evoke the sound of a 2000s romantic comedy soundtrack, reminiscent of nostalgic characters like Bridget Jones, while others adopt a style both on and off the red carpet that seems straight out of one. Olivia Dean, a 26-year-old singer-songwriter, embodies both of these attributes. Her intimate and warm sound is steeped in nostalgia, complemented by a playful and personal style. Her makeup also deserves admiration. To celebrate the London-based artist's first Grammy nomination for Best New Artist (likely the first of many), we’re highlighting some of her most stunning beauty moments from glamorous fashion events and movie premieres to fashion month parties and beyond.

      **Matte Minimalism**

      Attending the Valentino spring/summer 2024 show during Paris Fashion Week in October 2024, Dean posed for photographers in an exquisite purple sequined dress by the designer, adorned with delicate floral details from the A-line hem to the scoop neckline. Her makeup, crafted using cool tones to subtly highlight the vibrancy of the bold jewel tones, featured matte eyeshadow. A warm brown was applied across the lid and blended into a beige at the corners. The addition of smoky gray provided depth to the elegantly minimalist eye look.

      **'70s Revival**

      While attending the Perfect Magazine and AMI Paris London Fashion Week Party in February 2024, Dean was photographed sporting a disco-inspired outfit that brought to mind the playful sequined ensembles of Donna Summer. For this occasion, she chose a radiant complexion complemented by her signature strong brows, glossy pink lips, and rose-toned shimmering eyeshadow akin to the ambiance of romantic candlelight. We’re already plotting when and where to replicate this look for our next fashionable gathering.

      **Bronzed Touches**

      At the Chanel fall/winter 2024 show during Paris Fashion Week in March 2024, Dean showcased a sleek updo finished with a bow, perfectly suiting this floral makeup look. Appearing at Chanel's show, she displayed bronzed skin achieved with illuminating bronzer on her forehead, cheeks, and nose, paired with berry-toned lips, rosy cheeks, and full brows. While her complexion was the centerpiece, her simple yet playful eye detail with sleek liner and flirtatious lashes also drew attention.

      While attending the Chanel Haute Couture fall/winter 2024 show in June 2024, Dean appeared as if she emerged from a Parisian fairytale, flaunting bronzed skin with a dewy makeup look crafted by London-based makeup artist Emily Engleman. This look featured a fresh base (resembling glass skin), naturally flushed cheeks, and pink pouty lips that complemented her classic Chanel suit.

She graced the red carpet adorned in a black dress by The Own Studio and sky-high pumps styled by Simone Beyene. Her makeup, also by Engleman, featured full, fluffy brows, glossy mahogany lips, and a pearlescent highlighter that accentuated her cheekbones.
