Roan’s makeup was by her go-to Dee Carrion, who also did the glam for fellow Daisy Chain Fields performer Doechii. Carrion complemented the lilac look with a soft purple blush diffused across Roan’s face, made deeper as it traveled up to her spiky lashed, sharply lined eyes and temples. Her lips were a deep, sumptuous burgundy.
Chappell Roan is her best self when she’s inhabiting Bob-ell Roan. While she debuted with undulating waist-length curls, she’s experimented with shorter wigs and styles. Roan first tried out a wet-look bob and choppy side bangs at The Moment premiere back in January, complementing her mint leather nurse-like dress by Ilona and offering striking contrast to her softly diffused rainbow eyeshadow. At Paris Fashion Week, she sported a fluffy, face-framing, voluminous bob when attending the Acne Studios show, matched with a gothic gradient eye and a precisely lined maroon lip. As an artist indebted to the world of drag artistry, when Roan rocks the bob, she leans into the fantasy and all its details.
Last night’s look, too, proves the power of the versatile chop—and good products. Her bob stayed sleek and glossy despite the winds and the high-energy performance. Anti-frizz shampoos and serums are your best friend.
