Lux Pascal, Vanessa Kirby and Xochitl Gomez Lead '60s-inspired Beauty Trend at ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps' Premiere
1960s glam was in full gear on 'The Fatastic Four: First Steps' premiere red carpet in Los Angeles on Monday night, where the star-studded cast, including Pedro Pascal and Joseph Quinn, as well as a litany of A-list fans, flocked to celebrate the upcoming release of the Marvel Studios film, directed by Matt Shakman. The hair trends of decades past united with mod makeup fads outside the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, creating a diverse palette of looks, not one with less prowess than the other.
Xochitl Gomez led the charge in the '60s glam resurgence, recreating a carbon copy of Tracy Turnblad's bouffant hairdo in 'Hairspray' on her own head. Lux Pascal, similarly, added 'oomph' to her aesthetic, drawing exaggerated eyeliner across her lids and in her waterline like a '90s runway model.

Lux Pascal
Lux Pascal stepped out for 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' premiere in Los Angeles last night to support her brother, Pedro Pascal, who plays Mister Fantastic in the film. Honoring the night, the 33-year-old Chilean actress styled her fringe in messy waves around her face. Her makeup, comprised of back cat-eye eyeliner across her lids and in her waterline, settled somewhere between '90s runway model and '60s editorial glam, but a little less abstract. Pascal has worked with makeup artist Melissa P. and hair artist Audrey Lampron in the past; however, it's not known if either helped with this look.
Xochitl Gomez
Xochitl Gomez cast herself as Tracy Turnblad in the cinematic world of 'Hairspray' on Monday night, a far cry from the Marvel Studios universe. Instead of playing with beauty themes apparent in 'The Fantastic Four' franchise, Gomez-styled bouffant hair, securing a BumpIt behind a thick white headband. Gomez slicked her front pieces across her forehead, tucking the ends into the headband behind her right ear. Her makeup was just a dramatic, complete with dusty mauve shadow jetting out under her brow bone, white shimmer stamped on her inner eye corners, baby pink blush and a matching lip à la Ariana Grande in her 'Positions' music video.
Julia Garner
Julia Garner muted her trademark teased curls for the premiere, opting for a slicked side part instead. In fact, there was not a curl in sight on the 31-year-old actress' head, only a single bobby pin holding down her straightened front pieces. She kept the same bleach blond pixie cut, however, choosing to add volume only at the crown of her head. The androgynous hairstyle evoked English actress Twiggy in the '60s with her well-known cut created by stylist Leonard Lewis at the time.
Vanessa Kirby
Vanessa Kirby revived the soap brow trend on Monday night at the movie premiere in Los Angeles, opting to ignore the burgeoning skinny brow trend that had infiltrated the runways during the past haute couture season. The 37-year-old actress brushed her bushy brows up with thick gel to create a feathered effect. Her dirty blond tresses were parted on the right side of her head and styled in loose curls around her face.
Sarah Niles
Sarah Niles donned a sculpted updo on the red carpet on Monday night, harking back to the beehive hair trend popular among '60s movie stars and music artists, such as The Ronettes. The two-tiered bun on top of her head complemented the protruding drop waist on her lime green gown. Her makeup, on the other hand, was much more toned-down, complete with a touch of highlight on her cheeks, blended black shadow along the top of her eyes and a maroon shade on her lips.
