Creativity took center stage at the couture shows, making for lots of exciting beauty inspiration for the new decade.

A wave of creativity, broken boundaries, and elegantly risqu&eacute; fashion has taken over Paris for the first Haute Couture shows of the decade. As runways are becoming more diverse in both <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/luxury-wedding-dresses-haute-couture-spring-2020">aesthetic</a> and casting, so are the designers, makeup artists, and creatives behind the scenes, keeping fashion on its toes with stunning couture beauty looks for Spring 2020 and beyond. As a result, this new wave of talented creatives is shattering any tendency towards uniformity to redefine&nbsp;the industry for the better.

While we still have a long way to go in this regard, gone&nbsp;are the days when makeup artists served only to enhance natural beauty or recreate a prescribed standard.&nbsp;From <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/euphoria-makeup-celebrities">Euphoria-inspired makeup</a> to the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/beauty-trends-2020">vivid trends defining 2020</a>, beauty is having a truly creative&nbsp;moment.&nbsp;Because of that, we&rsquo;ve compiled a list of the best beauty looks from Haute Couture Spring 2020, which made bold statements in color and form to imagine a future of free expression (because fashion is&nbsp;an art, after all). Read on for some major eye candy and get inspired by the best couture beauty looks of the season.

For Maison Margiela&#39;s co-ed Artisanal collection, John Galliano imagined an &quot;upcycling of values&quot; with a parade of colors and avant-garde reimaginations of designs past. Pat McGrath and Eugene Souleiman worked together to craft the perfect beauty look to match&mdash;models sported a radiant glow, pops of color on their lips, and low-key hairstyles that allowed the vibrant headpieces to shine. In an age that&#39;s all about <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/beauty-trends-2020">having fun with makeup again</a>, we definitely see this couture beauty look translating into the real world.

Maison Margiela

One word, four letters: p-i-n-k. Beyond being the shade of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/adut-akech-beauty-lifestyle-model-interview-2019">Adut Akech</a>&#39;s stunning closing gown, pink was&nbsp;at the forefront of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/valentino-haute-couture-spring-2020-runway-show">Valentino</a>&#39;s beauty looks throughout the show. We love the monochrome palette, in which&nbsp;the blush and eyeshadow come together to create a feminine, sensual&nbsp;couture beauty look.&nbsp;

Valentino 

As the world learned just a few days before <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/jean-paul-gaultier-rossy-de-palma-conversation-interview-2019">Jean-Paul Gaultier</a>&#39;s 50th-anniversary celebration, it would also be the enfant terrible&#39;s final couture show. To complement the massive range of Gaultier muses showcasing over 200 creations, makeup artist Erin Parsons created a variety of looks. From silver &ldquo;freckles&rdquo; to elongated, Cleopatra-esque winged liner to fuschia eyeshadow applied all the way to the brow, the looks were so eclectic that each model could have walked a different show. Sharing in fun, color, and boldness, each look mirrored, in its&nbsp;own way, the designer whose unique&nbsp;creative spirit has left an indelible mark on the fashion world.&nbsp;

Jean-Paul Gaultier

Pixie haircuts, short bobs, and androgynous beauty took center stage at Givenchy,&nbsp;a show that took inspiration from Virginia Woolf&#39;s <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/luxury-wedding-dresses-haute-couture-spring-2020">romance</a> with poet Vita Sackville-West, who inspired Woolf to write her&nbsp;novel Orlando,&nbsp;which explored gender identity long before it was at the center of modern political debates. We love the&nbsp;non-conforming spirit of these couture&nbsp;beauty looks, which let the diverse range of aesthetics within the collection shine.

Givenchy 

If I&nbsp;had a doll, she would be wearing Chanel couture head to toe, and this innocent yet playful spirit&nbsp;is exactly what the high-fashion house was going for this season. In a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/chanel-haute-couture-spring-2020-runway-show">collection</a> paying homage to Coco Chanel&#39;s time in convent school, models showed off long locks and sleek updos alongside fresh-faced makeup, with a light dose of liner underneath the eyes creating the perfect, edgy&nbsp;je ne sais quoi to complete the couture beauty look.&nbsp;

Chanel 

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/dior-haute-couture-spring-2020-runway-show">Dior</a> looked to the goddesses to imagine what would happen if women ruled the world, and in the beauty sphere,&nbsp;this season was all about &quot;smizing&quot; and drawing attention to the eyes. Makeup artist Peter Philips infused double-lined eyes with hints of gold, creating a modern, covetable take on beauty staples of millennia past.

Dior 

Couture is all about decadence, and Schiaparelli took that to heart&nbsp;this season with a fashion collection that could double as contemporary art. Creative director Daniel Roseberry imagined a range of stunning structures and eccentric embellishment, and Erin Parsons helped to extend this same luxurious energy to the face. Most models sported a natural glow to pair with the maximalist designs, but in a viral moment, Agi Akur wore jewels all over her skin to match those on her gravity-defying dress. Curated piercings are trending as of late, and perhaps the look was a sign that this aesthetic is reaching a new level.
