The Icon. Nobody does it better. |
Not just pretty faces. Nick Rhodes mastered a look in the 80's and to this day it's rare he's seen without makeup. |
George - almost on trend - minus the corn rows. I've seen him around a couple times, once in Shoreditch with his trademark makeup on and then again without. He's much more interesting with it on. It's amazing work. |
Some strange choices but did it work for him or what! Glossy lips = 80's icon! |
Marc Bolan - Glamtastic. |
Little Richard wore eyeliner for exaggerated eyes and foundation with powder for a matte finish. |
Eyeliner and more eyeliner! |
They tried it without makeup for album "Lick It Up" but had nowhere near the commercial success. Give the kids what they want! |
Robert Smith - he made Goth cool. Trademark smeared red lipstick, pale complexion, artfully disheveled black hair. He's sported this look since the 80's and to this day. |
Oh Nick Rhodes...my tween heartthrob. Of course Robert Smith too - how can I not love a guy that makes a music vid with cats.
ReplyDeleteI was watching Culture Club vids on YouTube over the weekend wondering when we'll see his makeup as inspiration on the runway.
For awhile I believed Nick Rhodes and Boy George to be beautiful women. One sound of Nick's sultry, deep, smooth as whiskey voice made me take a closer look.
