Spring/Summer 2025 Paris Fashion Week delivers on the beauty front. My dream headband in 2007 was Dior. Angular 45-degree bangs have been reimagined by Mugler and Cardi B. At Shuting Qiu, Princess Leia buns made of confetti decorated Coco Rocha’s ears. This is the season for bold hairstyles.
But if you look at the people attending the show, you’ll see a completely opposite aesthetic. Fusing effortless French girl aesthetics with statement accessories and cuts, her particularly easy-going fall hair trends are dominating her street style scene. The consensus is that the time has come for low effort, high reward hair replacement.
Oversized scrunchies, a popular trend during Copenhagen Fashion Week, continued to adorn messy buns. Attach the metal clip to the air-dried texture. Pigtail braids, a hairstyle that takes just her five minutes to put together, are back, and blunt bangs and bob are widely accepted to make a statement by design.

Kaia Gerber wore pigtail braids, so it seemed like everyone in Paris had pigtail braids. The Library Science founder was out running errands last month with her hair tied back in a nostalgic style, so we guess the current spike is to be expected. What I didn’t expect was the combination of training hair and high fashion clothes. Oh, it works really well.

The love for Bob continues. Untied, unkempt hair may be the hallmark of the Paris runways of Christian Dior, Christopher Esber, and Uma Wang, but the street style circuit is embracing fiery chops. Whether it’s blunt baby bangs or a chin-length bob (or sometimes both), sleek straight is his mantra for fall 2024. “You’re going to see a lot of this really short bob style. It’s really cute and it’s really French,” says celebrity hairstylist Laura Porco.
