Beauty DNA: Five Secrets to Stealing Rita Ora’s Daring Style
Ora proves that Victorian necklines can be sexy when they’re velvet Chanel. The “How We Do” singer rocked a prim and proper Chanel frock to the Serpentine Galleries Summer Party in London on June 28, but her simple ponytail was adorned with starburst gems, her dramatic winged liner and her signature red lip added sex appeal to a comparably modest silhouette.
It was millennial pink meets cotton candy for the “Your Song” singer’s appearance at the 2017 amfAR Gala in Cannes on May 25. Ora wore a pale pink shimmery Chanel mini dress with tulle detailing at the shoulders and a low back for the formal occasion. The frock was a modern take on flapper chic, yet, the “Radioactive” singer’s hair and makeup channeled mod ‘60s musings with a half-up hairdo and pale pink lips à la Sharon Tate.
The Fifty Shades Darker actress attended the 2017 Costume Institute Gala in a custom crimson Marchesa gown complete with oversized sculpted bows, bias cut ribbon, and a fitted tulle underlay that cascaded into a fishtail skirt. Not only was Ora’s gown complicated, but so was her beauty look. The singer-actress sported an elaborate, geometric basket weave crown, as well as a custom lip created with Rimmel London’s Show Off Lip Velvet in Burning Lava and Rimmel London’s Lasting Finish by Kate lipstick in Kiss of Life.
Embroidery and shimmering pink sequins in one flashy dress? If you’re Ora, this isn't daunting — it’s de rigeur! The singer wore a shimmering pink sequined Valentino dress with long sleeves and a sheer floral embroidered bodice to the 2016 2016 Billboard Music Awards in NYC on December 9, 2016. While her dress was loud, the “Body on Me” singer’s makeup was soft and feminine, emphasized by the wispy bangs pulled out of her messy bun.
The Rimmel spokesmodel attended the annual Costume Institute Gala in May 2016 wearing a fashion-forward silver gilded Vera Wang that was both futuristic and feminine. Silvery elements echoed in Ora’s eyeshadow and in the mirrored embellishment woven into her updo for the occasion, coming together for a delightful contrast between hard metallic and fluttery feathered textures.
