All of the Beauty Trends That Are Yet to Pop Off, According to SS27 Runways
From anti-blush to chunky glitter highlighter.
While runway beauty looks don’t always seem wearable, they’re undoubtedly shaping the trends that are bound to pop up on our feeds. Fashion month keeps proving itself as the earliest signal for where makeup, hair and nail trends are headed. This season, Spring/Summer 2027 beauty is all about playfulness over practicality. From feather nails to skin drenched in sparkles, brands like Kim Shui and SHOWPONY are proving beauty can carry a show just as much as the collections do.
Ahead, we’re spotlighting the most memorable beauty trends of SS27.
Glittery Everything
Of course sparkly eyeshadow is a New York Fashion Week staple, but on the Spring/Summer 2027 runway, glitter extends beyond the eyes. While Anna Sui sent dreamy shimmery eye looks down the runway, Wiederhoeft emphasized chunky, glitter highlight to match and SHOWPONY took the trend even further with faces soaked in glitter.
Anti-Blush
Although ultra-saturated, pink blushes have had their moment, the SS27 runway is predicting that anti-blush will be far more impactful in 2027. Making use of muted, skin-like shades, brands like Conner Ives, Sandy Liang and Coach all highlighted barely-there blush rather than the usual bright, flushed cheeks.
Impractical Nails
While some runway beauty looks are wearable in our everyday routines — others, like impractical nail sets, are meant to be fleeting. At Kim Shui, models wore feather nails to match the collection’s maximalist aesthetic, and at SHOWPONY, things took an absurdist turn thanks to nails adorned with deadstock strands of hair.
