Polka-Dots and Sunset Shadows
Take her show-stopping look for Lollapalooza 2026. Here, Larsson put polka-dot eyes on the summer beauty map, painting her lids in a playful pattern over a wash of vibrant pink and orange shadow. Rhinestones of all sizes were scattered in between the dot embellishmentsembellishments (noun): decorative details or features added to something to make it more attractive., tucked neatly under her winged eyeliner and wispy falsies. Warm bronzer and hot pink blush melted together along the apples of her cheeks and over the bridge of her nose, creating a sun-drenched, festival-ready flush, while her lips were shaped in a dark mauve liner and filled with a high-shine clear gloss.
The Glamour Architects
The meticulous glam was crafted by Sinot, whose client list also includes creator Danah Leya and model Leomie Anderson. Her hair aesthetic—a blond bombshell blowout featuring extra-long, voluminous extensions—was created by celebrity hairstylist Marty Harper, the talent behind Audrey Nuna’s, Candice Swanepoel’s, and Michelle Monaghan’s recent red-carpet looks.
A Custom Sartorial Spectacle
For her fashion, Larsson collaborated with stylist Caterina Ospina to conceptualize a custom ensemble by James Nguyen and Alexander Cole, built by Euroco Costumes. The outfit consisted of a pink and yellow polo crop top with a plunging neckline, unzipped mini denim shorts, and knee-high stiletto boots by PC Footwear. The pointed-toe boots were heavily customized, covered in references to Larsson’s "Midnight Sun" album and bohemianbohemian (adjective): socially unconventional in an artistic way; free-spirited and relaxed.-inspired sun and flower graphics.

Larsson’s portfolio of past beauty looks includes nods to both modern-day minimalism and "Euphoria"-inspired make-believe, piecing together a complicated portrait of revolving makeup trends. Elements of no-makeup makeup (think sun-kissed cheeks and glass skin) complement color-drenched eyes and purple-hued highlighter like it’s 2016 all over again. And while the adornments have a habit of changing, lash clusters and cat-eye liner have remained fixtures in her aesthetic for years. Larsson and Sinot’s greatest hits include tiger-striped lids, blue lashes, and sparkle scatterplots over her temples.
