On the red carpets, the edgy cat-eye is having its moment too, with multiple A-listers looking beyond basic sweeps of black. At the 2017 Met Gala, Gigi Hadid, Lily-Rose Depp, and Candice Swanepoel traced their eyes with thick obsidian ink that shaped into a sharp point well past their temples. Emily Ratajkowski went with an edging of blue eyeliner that culminated in a green flick. On the Cannes red carpet, Bella Hadid and Jasmine Tookes offered a modern take on classic winged liner, with exaggerated feline flicks extending from the outer corner of the eyes.
