Less than 24 hours earlier, fresh from hosting Sanremo 76, he had paraded for Bottega Veneta at Milan Fashion Week. Then the intercontinental flight and the appearance – fresh as a rose – on the Hollywood red carpet. The black couture sculpture dress by creates a scene Jean Paul Gaultier by Duran Lantink. With sculpted bust, emphasized hips, plunging neckline and long black gloves to complete the tableau. A deliberately hyperbolic, almost surreal silhouette that evoked Jessica Rabbit’s imaginary bombshell online. But it is in beauty that the most interesting game is played.
Graphic make-up with broken eyeliner
In recent months, Bradley Cooper’s ex-girlfriend has enjoyed experimenting with eye makeup and in particular graphic eyeliner. In November, at the presentation of the new Pirelli Calendar, it was a classic silhouette paired with bleached eyebrows and boardeaux lipstick. At New York Fashion Week in early February, she dared an extreme bold effect together with transparent pink gloss.

The supermodel born in 1986 abandons the graphic line, clear and continuous. In favor of a interrupted eyeliner, strategically broken along the lower lash line. Not a mistake, but a precise exercise in style in which the free micro-space lightens the look and makes it more contemporary.
The result is a less predictable, more airy smoky eye effect. The interruption creates visual tension, emphasizes the natural shape of the eye and matches the architecture of the dress. A make-up that seduces, but with intelligence. Sensual yes, but never predictable just like her.

As soon as she landed in Los Angeles after the transcontinental flight from Milan Fashion Week, Irina underwent a lightning transformation.
