Yes, those are eyelashes. Fake ones (hopefully). The German fashion house SIOK sent this model down the catwalk at Berlin's Fashion Week:
Seemingly a cross between eyelash extensions and Cousin It, the weird lashes were just one of a succession of odd beauty looks, including a Phantom of the Opera style half-and-half face, and a black mantilla veil.
This will be the look of the year. Be prepared.
