Sydney Sweeney's Modern Ballerina Beauty Look For LACMA Is So On Point

From Barbie-core to ballet flats, pretty-in-pink has been the reigning hue of this Autumn's palette, and beauty is once again, no exception.

Despite associating her Euphoria character Cassie more with Y2K, baby blue and not-so-tearproof make-up than armfuls of blush tulle, Sydney Sweeney's 11th Annual LACMA Art + Film Gala red carpet look this weekend was nothing short of pristine pink. The White Lotus actor debuted a new iteration of this season's rose-toned beauty palette, a graceful and infinitely feminine look that we're dubbing 'The Modern Ballerina'.

For Sweeney's whimsical dance-inspired look, make-up artist Melissa Hernandez matched clustered faux lashes with an eye-widening white pencil across the waterline. Pared back with powder perfect skin, a pastel lid-to-cheek flush and barely-there gloss, it's safe to say the doll eyes have it on this occasion.

Hairstylist Glen Coco Oropeza completed the prima ballerina ensemble with an elegant side-swept bun, finished with a flawless mirror-worthy shine. A girly twist on the the sleek, side-combed buns sported at Max Mara and Adam Lippes, not only is this clean knot in keeping with Autumn's return of ribbons and ballet pumps, it effortlessly echoes our predictions for 2023's hautest hair trends.

Even Sweeney's tights nailed the ballerina dress code, perfectly matching her ruffled rose Giambattista Valli Couture dress. And what ballerina beauty look could be truly complete without a delicate ballet slipper nail?

Never one to play it safe, we're here for yet another unpredictable beauty look from the 25-year-old. A far cry from her LACMA pink couture confection, Sweeney's previous looks have included nineties nude lips and tousled, mermaid hair at the ELLE Women in Hollywood celebration in Los Angeles last month, and a preppy blunt bob and red lip at Tory Burch SS23 just weeks prior.

Whether it's dabbling in this year's copper hair resurgence, or a retrospective take on a modern classic, it's undeniable that, when it comes to beauty, Sydney Sweeney has range.
