Oh, . A decade on from the finale, it remains among the best TV depictions of the mayhem (and horror) of navigating your early twenties. To celebrate the news of its impending return, has jumped back into the original series for a rewatch. Aside from digging up a treasure trove of golden quotes (“I , like, the most scared person who’s alive…”) it has also been a reminder of the show’s incredible 2010s beauty moments.

While not quite “Ralph Lauren meets Joni Mitchell”, is it weird to say that, in hindsight, Marnie’s not actually wearing much make-up? Sure, the placement isn’t great, and the colours all lean a bit warm, but it’s not quite so alarming as it seemed at the time. This episode also gave us a classic quote, when the bride briefed her make-up artist on her desired aesthetic nod to her cultural heritage… “which is white Christian woman”.

Actually, Marnie’s wedding in general

Marnie in a flower crown. Shosh’s platinum blonde hair and red lip. Hannah’s actually great pixie. Jessa’s boho mane. Truly a bouquet of millennial bridal beauty inspiration.

The flicked bob – as accessorised with a statement barrette by Shoshanna – is having a revival. But it’s the black eyeliner in her waterline that really screams 2010s.

The collective commitment to some sort of updo

Whether Hannah’s makeshift ponytail or the girls’ various forays into front twists, plenty of attention was paid to jazzing up the hair.

Marnie had never felt more miserable. In Jessa’s eyes, she had never looked better.
