HOLLYWOOD LOOKS

Take a cue from the A-listers and create this autumn’s most sophisticated, glamorous look.

This autumn presents a strikingly glamorous look inspired by Hollywood: hourglass shapes and waist-whittling silhouettes meet shiny embellishments and sparkling jewellery. Get inspired by some of this year's best red-carpet entrances, and let us be your guide on how to create cinematic style by following these easy steps. 

Shiny Glamour 

Flowing dresses, long dramatic gowns and bodycon silhouettes: this season is all about feminine shapes and dramatic makeup, all with a sophisticated feel. One of our favourite red-carpet moments is when actress Michelle Monaghan arrived at the Warner Bros. and InStyle Golden Globe Awards after-party in Beverly Hills wearing a Day-Glo-hued satin cutout dress by Vera Wang, a matching chic clutch, a rich dark red manicure and coral-coloured lips. 

- Maxi lengths make a comeback for fall on both dresses and skirts, says Oriflame's Global Head of Editorial, Anna Blom. 

- Top up with classic red lips. Don't be afraid of looking too extravagant; autumn's makeup trend is all about glamour with a touch of boldness. For a softer feel a powdery pink shade will do the trick, says Anna. 

Romantic Reds

Red shades boast an elegant look for fall. One of our favourite red looks is Cara Santana's, the woman in red in an open-back lace dress at this September's Style Awards in New York. 

Opt for red-carpet style with a romantic ponytail and matching lipstick for the definition of Parisian chic. Go for flawless makeup to match the elegant ensemble - it's the perfect example that less is more, even when it comes to the red carpet. 

You can also add some gloss with ultra-lacquered cherry lips, as seen at Marc by Marc Jacobs. The polished-lip look delivers instant evening glamour and will create an exit as worthy as your entrance.
