They’re Back! Trends from the Past

Gothic Pouts

Then: In the times when grunge girls Courtney Love and Shirley Manson reigned supreme, cool chicks opted for the darkest of shades on their lips. Goth worthy puckers could be seen on ’90s queen Drew Barrymore, the first generation of Super Models, and in the girls’ bathroom on the cult-favorite “My So Called Life.”

Now: The gothic lips from the not-so-distant past have been resurrected as a cosmetic must-have. Dark brick to deep plum shades now pair with everything from red carpet gowns to “vintage” rocker tees. Seductive and vampy pouts have been resurfacing on the lips of singer Lana Del Rey to actress Kate Bosworth, and seen on the runways of both Gucci and YSL.
