Olivia Munn has joined the growing list of celebrities perfecting the sleek, low bun — a minimalist style that highlights natural beauty and elegance. While Munn is often seen with her hair down for red carpet events, her polished updo at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party turned heads for all the right reasons.
The look, crafted by Los Angeles hairstylist Cherilyn Farris, paired seamlessly with Munn’s custom white Fendi gown. With her hair pulled back, she also showed off sparkling earrings by New York-based jewelry brand MARLI.
Munn returned to the look in February 2025, posting a photo on Instagram in a high-neck, low-back gown. This time, she added a few loose tendrils around her face, giving the polished bun a softer edge. Fans and friends quickly praised the style. “Stunning mama” wrote television host Jeannie Mai, while brand consultant Yael Qint added, “AHHHHH!!”
The sleek bun complemented the dramatic open back of her gown, proving that a simple hairstyle can elevate a bold fashion statement. This refined style has become a strong match for Munn’s love of classic, sculptural silhouettes, enhancing her natural bone structure without overwhelming her overall look.
Munn has also worn similar styles recently, including a low ponytail with soft face-framing pieces at the 2024 Creative Arts Emmy Awards. She finished that look with a ribbon bow, adding a delicate detail while keeping the focus on her gown and facial features.
The clean, sophisticated low bun — often called the “clean girl” hairstyle — feels like a natural fit for Munn. With subtle, wispy layers for added texture, the bun strikes the right balance between structure and softness. And for fans looking to try it themselves, social media platforms like TikTok offer easy tutorials to keep the style in place.
Whether it’s a red carpet moment or a social media post, Olivia Munn proves that understated glamour can still make a lasting impact.
