It wouldn’t be Fashion Week without Bella Hadid serving up some major style moments. Ahead of the Paris shows, the supermodel arrived in the city on September 24, effortlessly nailing the off-duty model look while reimagining a classic hairstyle—the ballerina bun—with her signature edgy charm.
The traditional ballerina bun is typically polished, sleek, and often parted down the middle. However, Hadid put her own editorial spin on it by adding a deep side part, giving the look a fresh and dynamic twist. The side part added movement and texture, while a few loose strands framed her face for that cool, undone effect. It’s the kind of high-fashion twist that took this simple updo from everyday to runway-ready.
To complement the look, Hadid kept her makeup minimal and chic, opting for soft rosy cheeks and a glossy pink lip. Black rimless sunglasses added a touch of mystery to her overall vibe, matching her head-to-toe leather ensemble. She rocked a black leather coat over a tan matching skirt and jacket set by With Jéan, leather boots, and a coordinating tote—giving off major “Matrix-meets-Paris” vibes.
Hadid’s take on the ballerina bun is proof that even the simplest styles can feel elevated with a few thoughtful tweaks. The next time you’re looking to switch up your bun game for a night out, try her side-part version to add some fresh, modern flair.
