Ultimate Festival Style with Rowi
We first met Rowi Singh when she wandered into our pop up shop in Manly in October 2014. We instantly bonded over our shared obsession of statement jewels and eclectic style. Since then, Rowi has blown up into an Instagram beauty and style sensation, with over 250K followers tuning in to learn her incredible self-taught makeup skills and accessories styling. Rowi is our festival style queen, and with the summer festival season upon us, we asked Rowi a few questions about herself, her personal style & her top festival styling tips...
Tell us a bit about yourself and what you do…
I'm Rowi Singh, a full time creative influencer on Instagram. I specialise in creative makeup looks, that you probably won't see most people doing. I fuse my heritage with my modern aesthetic as a means of inspiring young women of colour to create, and be, whoever they please.
How would you describe your personal style?
It's very eclectic, a bit vintage and unique. I love pairing basic pieces with statement jewellery and accessories.
Who are your biggest inspirations for all things fashion & beauty?
For makeup it would be @stella.s.makeup because she's incredibly unique. I always look to @giizeleoliveira for fashion inspo.
What’s your go-to festival look?
A billowing skirt, high knee black boots, a jingly belt, lots of jewellery, a vintage top, a killer pair of sunnies and lots of glitter and face jewels (or something like that).
What tips would you give someone on creating their own festival style?
Wear whatever makes you feel most confident, and don't be afraid to push boundaries, wearing something a little different to most.
What is your least favourite festival trend?
Not a fan of the glitter boobs and hot pants look.
What’s your prediction on the next big festival trend?
I think it may steer away from boho to more edgy, like latex, berets, mesh and chains.
You are absolute killer at makeup. When did this fascination start and how did you learn your skills?
I love treating makeup more of an art form - I find it really fun to be as creative as I can. I love creating looks that make people go, 'wow I've never seen that before'. And I'm completely self taught!
When it comes to festival makeup, you are our muse! What are your top tips for festival makeup?
1. Glitter - but don't throw it on manically. Little inner eye sparkles and under the eyes and cheeks is classy and cute!
2. Setting powder and primer so your face stays on the whole day
3. A pop of colour with the eyeshadow
4. Keep the lips a neutral colour
5. Lots of highlighter for that glow
Scrolling through your Instagram, it’s clear you’ve nailed the selfie. What is your secret to the perfect selfie?
Lighting is everything!!
Quick 5:
1. Song you can’t stop listening to: Doves in the Wind - SZA
2. Favourite quote: "Work hard in silence, let your success be your noise" - Frank Ocean
3. Top place on your travel wish list: LA at the moment
4. Festival you’d love to go to: Coachella and Camp Flog Gnaw
5. Dream artist to see perform at a festival: Kanye West
