The 17-year-old Belgian is astounding people around the world with her skillful use of hair and makeup to transform into actresses including Hepburn and Vivien Leigh, historical figures like Anne Frank, and Disney princesses Belle and Snow White.
Van Overbeek posts the makeup transformations on her Instagram account, along with the vintage fashion finds that help complete her makeovers.
Van Overbeek: I have always loved using makeup and hair to transform myself into other people and movie characters.
It really started about a year ago when I cut my hair into a pixie cut and people started telling me I looked like Audrey Hepburn.
HuffPost: Who was the first classical character or historical figure you transformed into? How long was the process?
Van Overbeek: The first classical character I ever tried to transform into was Audrey Hepburn, and it took me quite some trial and error to get the look right, but practice makes perfect! Before that, I did dress up as movie characters such as Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Sansa Stark from “Game of Thrones.”
HuffPost: W do you get the wigs, accessories and clothing to complete the looks? Do you do your own hair and makeup?
Van Overbeek: I think out of all the ones I’ve taken, the first Scarlett O’Hara one came out really well, but I also like my Audrey Hepburn in “Sabrina” one.
