Go all out and apply sporty lines across your entire eye. What’s interesting about this graphic liner look is that it uses more than one bright shade, namely blue and orange.
2. Olivier Theyskens
The look seen at the Olivier Theyskens show was in between a graphic liner and a smokey eye. To replicate the look, you will have to blend upwards until you get the sultry effect you want.
3. Dior

If effortless is more your style, simply swipe one line (preferrably in a bold color) on the top and the bottom of your eyes. On the Dior runway, the colorful lines were made to coordinate with the models’ sunglasses, adding a playful touch to the look.
4. Maison Rabih Kayrouz
Want to upgrade your cat eye? The style seen on this show will have you connecting your top and bottom lash line, but abruptly stopping halfway across your lid. The result is new, fresh, and certainly bold.
5. Akris

Don’t be afraid of a little shimmer! While applying liner on your upper and lower lash line is nothing new, adding gold flakes or glitter eyeshadow on top of it will surely make your eyes pop even more.
