The Beauty Edit: Makeup and Jewelry for Mint Evening Dresses
THE BEAUTY EDIT · GABY CHARBACHY
A mint gown leaves room for a personal finishing touch: a softly defined eye, a rose-toned lip, or one small glint at the ear. Here, two Gaby Charbachy evening dresses suggest two different ways to bring the whole look together.
Begin with the dress, then look up
When choosing makeup for evening dresses, it is tempting to start with a matching eyeshadow. We would begin elsewhere: with the space around the face. An open neckline, sculptural shoulder folds and dense embellishment each create a different frame. Let that frame guide the size of your earrings, the placement of your hair and the intensity of your makeup.
Gaby Charbachy G2235 and G2242 share a pale mint foundation, but their upper halves tell different stories. Both appear in Onlinemarkat’s New Designer Dresses and Arrivals collection. The styling below is our editorial interpretation, not a rule about which colors you can wear or a promise of how a shade will look on every complexion.
G2235: leave a little space
The strapless G2235 combines crepe with floral lace, curved panels at the hips and a fluted mermaid hem. Its neckline has a delicate botanical edge, while the smooth bodice gives the eye a place to rest.
For this dress, we would try a softly blended taupe eye, a fine line close to the lashes and a rose lip chosen to suit your own coloring. Keep the finish luminous rather than adding shimmer everywhere. If you prefer a stronger lip, try a deeper rose and simplify the eye; the aim is to choose a focus, not to follow a fixed formula.
Small drop earrings could echo the floral detail without filling the open neckline. Try the look without a necklace first. A low, softly arranged bun or hair tucked behind one ear would leave the edge of the bodice visible. These are options to test in the mirror, not requirements for wearing a strapless gown.

G2242 pairs a mint crepe mermaid silhouette with beaded lace and darker green liquid-organza folds across the shoulders. The V-shaped opening, raised hip panels and elongated embellishment give this dress a more layered frame.
Our first makeup direction would be a softly shaded brown eye with a restrained touch of champagne at the inner corner, balanced by a muted rose lip. For a moodier evening version, deepen the outer lash line rather than adding more sparkle across the entire lid. You can also keep the eye minimal and choose the lip color you feel most like yourself wearing.
With fabric already surrounding the shoulders, start with studs or compact earrings. Pin your hair back for the first try-on so you can see the folds clearly, then compare with your preferred hairstyle. If you love longer earrings, turn your head in both directions and check that they sit comfortably away from the organza.

Silver-toned jewelry is one direction we like with this palette; soft gold is another if you want a warmer contrast. Hold each option beside the actual dress before deciding. The photographs offer a useful starting point, but they cannot settle your preference for you.
For a bag, we would compare a small ivory clutch with a quiet metallic finish. Keep its shape simple enough that the gown’s curves remain visible. Shoes can follow the same restrained palette, but choose the pair you can comfortably walk and stand in. During a fitting, check the hem with those exact shoes rather than planning around a different heel height.
One final look before the evening
Try the dress, earrings, hairstyle and makeup together instead of judging them separately. Look from the front and side, sit down, turn your head and take a photograph in the lighting you have available. If the result feels busy, remove one detail and compare. Elegant evening gowns leave plenty of room for individuality; the best finishing touch is the one you feel comfortable keeping.
