Have you ever seen Dita Von Teese without winged liner? Along with ruby red lips, it's her signature look, and her particular brand of midcentury glam has never looked better in the new millennium.

Adele's signature look takes the dramatic bouffants and even more dramatic cat eyes from the likes of '60s sirens like Brigitte Bardot (keep your eye out for her later in this slideshow), and brings the look seamlessly into the 21st century. In fact, when you think about it, it's like the makeup equivalent of the retro-stylings of her music.

Twiggy may have been better known for her penchant for long lashes and legs, but have no doubt about it: She could rock a major cat eye too. With spidery lashes coming back in style, it might just be time to take the former supermodel/ "America's Next Top Model" judge's signature look out for a spin.

Paired with her shaggy lob and her superlative fashion sense, Alexa Chung's take on the cat eye feels almost more like an afterthought. It's not flashy or dramatic, but it definitely adds an extra punch to almost every makeup look she wears, no matter how minimal.

Paired with pale pink lips and big, big hair, Brigitte Bardot certainly has one of the most recognizable beauty looks in the past century. If you're ever looking for the epitome of bedroom-chic, Bardot is, without a doubt, your gal.
