They’re Back! Trends from the Past

Bold Brows

Then: The hair raising heyday of the ’80s even extended to overpowering eyebrows. Model Brooke Shields and the ever-iconic Madonna sported bold, caterpillar brows, complete with fuzzy stragglers that may or may not have led to the overplucked look in the subsequent ’90s.

Now: Barely-there brows are blasé. With starlets like Lily Collins and Camilla Belle as poster children for the bold brow resurgence and models like Cara Delevigne holding down the trend in editorials and on the runways, eyebrows are now a fashion statement in and of themselves. But don’t completely ditch your tweezers. While today’s brows are bold, they are more tamed and shaped, unlike the last time they were in the spotlight.
