There s nothing quite like a dramatic haircut to ring in a new party season. Just ask Suki Waterhouse, who took to Instagram yesterday to debut a scene-stealing mop of short blonde hair that brought her face into flattering sharp focus. Heightening the effect of Waterhouse s trademark cool girl signatures—power brows, glowing skin, petal pink lips—the look was an instant frame-stealing star, lending a gamine mood to her doe-eyed gaze and fine bone structure.
The model s transformation called to mind Demi Moore s iconic 90s Ghost haircut, made modern by Waterhouse s slightly wavy texture and a lived-in sensibility that skewed slightly punk. Given that her look is typically marked by the artful bedhead and grown-out bohemian bangs of a modern day Anita Pallenberg, her abbreviated length was a noteworthy departure for Waterhouse, but one that still riffs on the romantic-meets-retro mood she keeps close to her heart. Whether her latest makeover is born of a brazen chop or a masterful one-night-only wig, consider this one bold beauty risk that s bound to inspire its fair share of permanent pick-up-the-scissors commitments.
