Beauty Watch: The brows have it

New York Fashion Week feels like a distant memory now — that’s the dream-like nature of fashion weeks — but there was one glaringly obvious trend that marched up and down those catwalks with relentless consistency.

Brows — bold and sweeping, fat and black or romantic and whimsical. Whichever way you look at it, brows are back.

The bold brow was tempered with a natural look of perfectly prepped and primed skin, invisible eyelashes and the barest suggestion of a flush on cheeks. It’s not just on the catwalks we’re seeing this look either. In her new film, Anna Karenina, Keira Knightley’s look is almost barefaced, apart from the brows. She’s kept the look, pictured here at the London premiere of the film.
