Tilda Swinton’s Blown-Out Mohawk Is Half Undercut, Half Pompadour, All Artwork

Allure


When Tilda Swinton steps onto the pink carpet, she amps up our creativeness with the eclecticness of her fashion. Her arrival on the London Vogue Awards on December 5 proved as such, with the colourful canvas painted on her robe designed by clothier Charles Jeffrey and the sculptured mohawk masterfully structured atop her head. 

Paired with a poppy pink lip stain, her mohawk was half pompadour as London-based hairstylist Declan Sheils took the lead and gave her layers an inverted blown-out look. It was fierce, artfully styled, and even made us suppose again to the golden dagger-shaped crown her character wore on the battlefield in The Chronicles of Narnia.  

Swinton’s undercut was tapered and light on the sides because the strands instantly above the crown cuffed inward with nice size. The ideas of her hair fell inward and interlocked across the brow.

In dialog with Vogue, she defined her presence on the awards would later take the stage to current Jefferson Hack with the Particular Recognition Award for Cultural Curation. Swinton’s lip coloration, painted by make-up artist Lesley Chilkes, stood out even towards the backdrop of pink lighting on the stage.
