Paris Jackson Did Something Rare And Refreshing On The Red Carpet

October 6, 2017 at 6:00 AM

We have a feeling Paris Jackson’s latestred carpet lookisAlicia Keys-approved.

The 19-year-old attended People’s “Ones to Watch” event in Los Angeles on Wednesday sporting a bare face, a draped Vivienne Westwood dress and flat sandals. Yes. Girl.

Goingmakeup-freehas become somewhatof a movementamong celebrities in an effort to challenge traditional standards of beauty. But such moments are usually saved forInstagram or everyday life.

As a result, it’s especially refreshing to see a young star like Jackson take her efforts to thered carpet. But considering her stance on beauty standards, it’s not entirely surprising.

In an August interview with i-D, she explained that being herself and helping people feel comfortable in their own skin is “a big reason” she wants to “change this fashion/beauty stigma.”

“I’m not symmetrical, I’m not a size zero, I eat hella burgers and endless amounts of pizza,” she said. “I can’t fit into a runway sample size of designer clothes, I have scars andstretch marksandacneand I havecellulite. I’m human. Not a dress-up doll. The idea that we all have to fit one idea of beauty is outrageous and ridiculous because‘perfection’ is just an opinion.”

In our opinion, that outlook is perfection ― and so is the red carpet look. Check out just a few of the other celebs who have gone public without makeup below.
