There's been a lot of hype around the latest comic-turned-superhero blockbuster Birds Of Prey, and it seems as though not even fashion designers were exempt from finding inspiration in the story — or its heroine. Kicking off the Fall 2020 New York Fashion Week, Christian Siriano sent models down the runway in Harley Quinn-inspired Birds Of Prey glam, from the hair and makeup all the way down to the nails.
Inspired by the shiny, sculptural pieces in the collection, Maybelline New York's global makeup artist Erin Parsons recreated the comic book character's look with a soft and subtle twist. According to Parsons, Siriano had to have Quinn's signature heart tattoo, which the team drew on each model's cheek with a craft store stencil and Maybelline's Liquid Eyeliner.
The look was rounded out with top and bottom mascara, using Maybelline's Falsies Lash Lift, and the Tattoo Studio Sharpenable Gel Pencil for a lived-in subtle shadow."It's really just about a black pencil, the Tattoo Studio Pencil, and we blended it out slightly on a bare eyelid, and that gives a little bit of shadow," Parsons tells NYLON."It's the easiest eye, it's a five minute eye, we want it not perfect.

And the easiest way to achieve a perfect heart beauty mark - use a stencil! I filled it in jet black with #maybelline Hyper Easy Liquid Liner 😘 For the hair, TRESemmé managed to channel Quinn's cotton-candy dyed hair without feeling like DC Comic cosplay — a notable feat...
Finally, Julie Kandaelc created a jewel-inspired nail look for Essie, resulting in a strip of glitter using the brand's Set In Stones, over a black base coat in Licorice ."We wanted to do something that was elegant and edgy together," she tells NYLON. Kandaelc also noted that the team wanted everything to be approachable and easy to DIY at home — which is why instead of fancy tools, the entire look was completed using just the bottle of polish.
