The Game of Thrones [1] cast travelled all the way from Westeros to New York City for the HBO show's final red carpet season premiere [2] on Wednesday, and it's safe to say they put their best faces forward for the occasion. Take Emilia Clarke, for example. The 32-year-old actress turned heads in a tulle Valentino gown with a sneaky hidden message on it [3], but her hair and makeup are what really caught our eye as she headed into Radio City Music Hall to watch season eight's first episode [4].
Celebrity hairstylist Jenny Cho [5] styled Clarke's dark hair into a braided updo [6] inspired by her Game of Thrones character, Daenerys Targaryen. Cho slicked back her middle-parted hair and gave her a braid that trailed down the back of her head before making a loop at the nape of her neck. We're bending the knee at her hair skills!
Clarke's makeup was just as stunning, featuring fiery red-orange eye shadow and bold deep maroon lipstick, all done by Chanel makeup artist Kate Lee [7]. Read on to take an up-close look at Clarke's Khaleesi-approved braid and makeup, and then, if you're still in the mood for more beauty magic, get the full breakdown on Maisie Williams's beauty look at the premiere [8].
