This year’s Venice Film Festival has been a spectacle, and the hair and make-up moments are no exception. Amid the sparkle, dampened waves, and slicked coiffures, the black hair bow has been the clear spotlight stealer.
The opening soirée saw Julianne Moore sparking the trend in a subtle way, her glossy burnished waves bound in a low ponytail with the help of a thin black ribbon. The simple addition grounded the actor’s shimmering Alaïa gown, echoing the rows of onyx sequins and tying the entire look together.
Next came Sydney Sweeney, who attended the Bones And All premiere in black-bowed Armani, her hair pulled into a polished half up-do, finished with an exaggerated and impossibly chic version of the staple accessory. And for Tessa Thompson, a similarly mirrored moment took shape in a tautly-pulled ponytail, a black ribbon trailing between her shoulder blades.
Hair ribbons have been an aesthetic mainstay this year, serving pretty power that feels both timeless and just-like-new. From cozy autumn days to festive cocktail parties, a simple black hair bow may be all you need to elevate 2022’s remaining days.
