The Met Gala can always be relied on for breakout beauty moments. Case in point: Michelle Williams’s new cool girl bob. The actress took to the red carpet in a decidedly on-theme look, her debut crop heightening the high-impact head-to-toe effect.
Williams’s take on the style was nothing if not forward-thinking. Chin grazing and textured, the piece-y, baby blonde chop was instantly elevated by a set of micro bangs that tapered to wisps mid-forehead. The resulting look transmitted a French girl feel that
s both modern and timeless, and seems bound to inspire an avalanche of similar snips, proving that—whatever machines may offer—the appeal of an expertly handcrafted haircut is hard to match.
