Elle Fanning is already nailing one of 2025’s biggest beauty trends: modern retro makeup.
Fanning, 26, looked magnificent at the 2025 National Board Of Review Gala in New York City on Wednesday, January 7. For the event, she donned 1960s-esque glam including a vibrant pink lip. Her soft eye makeup featured nude eyeshadow blended to her brow bone and mascara. To make her blue eyes pop even more, Fanning wore white eyeliner in her waterline.
The rest of her look featured foundation and soft blush, which let her freckles shine through. The actress’ platinum blonde mane was styled in a half-up coif with her shoulder-length tresses blown out.

Fanning teamed her beat with a delicate Maison Valentino dress featuring razor thin straps, a lavender sweetheart bra top with a soft pink bow adorned with crystals and tiered butter yellow skirt.

Fanning, whose dress was perfect for spring, kept warm in the freezing temperatures of New York City with a tan fur coat.
She dripped in jewels with a pink and white diamond Resonances de Cartier bracelet featuring 60 carats of rubellites and a matching Panthère de Cartier ring.
This isn’t the first red carpet Fanning has looked vintage-chic this week. At the 2025 Golden Globes on Sunday, January 5, she wowed in a Balmain ball gown that was based on a design from the brand’s 1952 haute couture collection.
The dress featured a bedazzled cheetah top and a pleated tan skirt.
Fanning further played into the vintage aesthetic with an Old Hollywood hairstyle. Her hair was parted to the side and swept over her forehead before being gathered in a low bun.

Fanning later rocked more animal print at the Jas Mathur and Michael Braun‘s afterparty, rocking a vintage Dior dress. Her frock featured red flowers attached to her spaghetti straps, a loosely-fitted silhouette and a thigh-high slit. She glammed up her ensemble even more with a long scarf that cascaded to the ground.
