Kara is a Korean girl group and on below is their music video 'Damaged Lady' from Youtube. I found all five of the members makeup looks very eye-catching and I like how each of them have different makeup looks, costumes and styles which make their looks more unique and fascinating.
The ideas of their styles are inspired by the 'Queens' where the 5 members can be seen wearing tiaras and royal attire.  |

The costumes from Kara's 'Damaged Lady' music video and album reminds me of one of the Queen Elizabeth I's portrait which is the portrait from above. The use of gold, black, white and red from Kara's costumes links to the colours used on Elizabeth's costumes and the Tudor rose that she was holding in the portrait. White and black were Elizabeth's favourite colours as they symbolised virginity and purity.
On below is one of the photos of Jiyoung and pearls are used on her earrings. In Elizabethan era, pearls symbolised purity and it is one of the most popular jewelry for upper class fashionable women at that time.
