Cara Delevingne turned heads at the Cannes Film Festival on May 21, unveiling a bold new hairstyle that marked a clear shift from her usual look. Attending the premiere of The History of Sound, the model embraced fall fashion early with a burgundy basque-waist gown and a striking black bob.
Known for her signature butter-blonde hair, Delevingne debuted a sleek, wet-look bob in jet black. The cut included microbangs styled in front of her ears to mimic sideburns, creating a sharp, grungy effect. She completed the edgy look with a smoky eye, muted lips, and a minimalist baby French manicure.
While her dress impressed, it was the hairstyle that defined her appearance, adding a moody elegance to the red carpet. Delevingne’s transformation is part of a recent trend among celebrities embracing bold hair changes. Bella Hadid revealed honey-blonde waves ahead of the festival, and Megan Thee Stallion recently swapped her red hair for a vivid pink before the Met Gala.
These evolving styles hint at a season of reinvention among Hollywood’s fashion leaders.
