Otherworldly beauty and pale sculptural shapes
Alien Girl
Alien Girl brings an otherworldly quality to a fashion look through unusual eye makeup, pale color and softly exaggerated shapes. This interpretation pairs a close lilac tank with a rounded white midi skirt, silver multi-strap shoes and a pale green bag. Long platinum hair, almost invisible brows and elongated lilac eyes carry the idea into the portrait.
An original pastel interpretation of alien-inspired fashion and beauty; the catalogue label describes this direction rather than a single historical uniform.
Background
Alien imagery has moved between science-fiction costume, fashion and beauty for decades. The V&A documents white and silver Space Age designs in the 1960s. Liz Flora’s March 2023 Glossy report traces contemporary alien motifs, holographic finishes and unusual makeup through brand interviews. Chloe Joe’s June 2026 Coveteur essay discusses a further range of alien runway and screen references. These sources establish recurring visual ideas, without giving this particular label a founder or start date.
What defines the look
Make the face and silhouette work together. The softly inflated skirt gives the fitted tank an unusual proportion, while the silver shoes interrupt the otherwise matte palette. Pale green at the shoulder adds a slightly strange color beside lilac. Platinum hair and subdued brows make the cool eye shape more noticeable. Keep the skirt free of floral prints and lace so its volume reads clearly. The selected outfit translates extravagant alien imagery into four wearable pieces; the makeup supplies more of the fantasy than costume hardware. A small bag also keeps the rounded skirt and exposed shoe straps unobstructed.
Hair & styling details
Long smooth platinum hair and a clean central part create a pale frame around the eyes. Let two narrow front strands fall forward while the remaining hair stays close to the back.
Blend lilac over the lids, extend a slim darker outer line and add silver at the inner corners. Subdued brows and a softly reflective high cheek make the eyes stand out; keep lips sheer and cool rose.

Build your own look
Pieces to start with
- Fine ribbed tank
- A close simple upper shape makes a balloon-like skirt easier to read. Tuck the hem smoothly and check that broad straps sit flat beside a bag strap.
- White bubble midi
- Look for a turned-under hem and a rounded lower edge, rather than a tiered ruffle. Choose a length that leaves the shoes visible and check walking movement.
- Silver multi-strap shoes
- Small buckles and a reflective closed toe add fine mechanical detail. Try the straps over the instep and leave enough room for toes; the illustrated pair has a low block heel.
- Pale green rounded bag
- Use a quiet curved shape with a broad plain strap. Keep it short at the shoulder to avoid a long diagonal line crossing the skirt.

Ways to put it together
Styling suggestions from Coreification.
- Illustrated outfit: lilac rib tank + white bubble midi + silver four-strap shoes + pale green half-moon bag. Repeat the lilac in an elongated eye shape.
- Cool-weather adaptation: pale lilac fitted long-sleeve knit + white bubble skirt + opaque pale-gray tights + silver closed shoes. Keep the collar simple and the bag small.
