THE GODDESS OF POP AND ORIGINATOR OF GYPSY MEETS SHOWGIRL GLAMOUR HAS BEEN GETTING US BABES SINCE 1965. OVER FIFTY YEARS ON, THE AMERICAN SONGSTRESS REMAINS A FASHION AND BEAUTY ICON AND THE COOLEST EMBODIMENT OF THIS SEASON’S ELEVATED, NEO BOHEMIAN CHIC.

One of Cher’s most iconic beauty moments saw the late makeup legend Kevyn Aucoin swathe her lids in glitter – a look that’s huge on the S/S ’19 runways. Recreate the same irreverent drama with Marc Jacobs’ highly pigmented See-Quins Glam Glitter Eyeshadow, along with defined brows and smudgy kohl eyeliner. (Opposite) Cotton shirt, Tod’s. Denim jeans, Chanel. Camelia 18K white gold necklace with diamonds, and Boy.Friend 18K beige gold watch with diamonds on alligator skin strap, Chanel Fine Jewellery

Perfect a graphic cut crease the way Cher did with Nars’ Tinted Smudgeproof Eyeshadow Primer, which helps the main, lighter eyeshadow shade slide on smooth and stay in place. Match it with glossy, neutral-toned puckers using the likes of Hera’s Sensual Intense Glaze liquid lipstick in Innocent Coral. Cotton and leather shift dress, Longchamp. Leather belt (worn on head), Gucci. Metal ring, Givenchy. (Opposite) Silk halter dress, Diane von Furstenberg. Filet d’Or 18K rose gold hoop earrings and silk Grecian sandals, Hermes

Cher’s shiny, pin-straight black locks would have been impossible without a flat iron. Dyson’s Airwrap Smooth + Control styler kit includes a firm brush that allows one to achieve the look using air – not extreme heat – while reducing frizz and flyaways. Leather miniskirt and D-Bag leather bucket bag, Tod’s. Amazone silver cuff, Hermes. (Opposite) Cotton camisole and denim jeans, Sandro. High Jewellery 18K white gold earrings with onyx, rubellites, spessartites and diamonds, Monete 18K pink gold necklace with ancient coin, mother-of-pearl and diamonds, and matching ring with malachite, Bvlgari

Long, doll-like lashes have always been a Cher beauty signature and call for a high-definition mascara like Giorgio Armani’s Eyes To Kill Classic, which contains a sculpt-fix gel that curves and gives structure, and comes in a deep inky black. Viscose slip dress with crystals, Miu Miu. Terres d’Or 18K white and yellow gold bracelet with sapphires, diamonds and lacquer, and Cascades Royales 18K white gold earrings with emeralds, onyx, and diamonds, Chaumet. (Opposite) Silk crepe de Chine midi dress, and leather and Lycra boots, Givenchy. Filet d’Or 18K rose gold hoop earrings, Hermes
