Celebrities Lead the Charge on the Bob Hair Trend for Summer 2025: Leslie Bibb, Halle Berry and More

Yahoo6 hours ago

Buckle up — it's a bob girl summer.
First popularized by movie legend Mary Thurman in the 1920s, 'the bob' has rapidly made its way onto almost every star-studded scene and red carpet over the last year. From Hailey Bieber to Zendaya and even Nicole Kidman, there's been no shortage of stars who haven't taken the plunge, chopping their long ends into a blunt cut above the shoulders. Some like Selena Gomez have kept their ends trimmed just in line with their shoulders, while others like Keke Palmer have stuck to traditional measures, clipping their hair chin-length and even adding micro fringe à la Anna Wintour.

Leslie Bibb, a long-standing bob supporter (might as well call her Leslie Bob), is careful not to let her ends get too close to her collarbone, noticeably subscribing to a 'the shorter, the better' mindset. As a top model for the hairstyle, Bibb's also influenced other women in the A-list echelon. On Tuesday, she brought her hair artist Chris McMillan on the 'Today Show,' convincing Jenna Bush Hager to let him give her a bob — she was successful.
Here, WWD takes a look at 10 celebrities who've rocked the short hair beauty trend, from Carrie Coon to Charlize Theron.
Carrie Coon stepped out with her finely-cut bob during the 2025 Tribeca Festival in June. The 44-year-old noticeably clipped her tresses for her role in Mike White's 'The White Lotus' Season Three.
Leslie Bibb kept her blond bob during an appearance on the 'Today' show on June 17. Bibb has worked with celebrity hairstylist Chris McMillan on the upkeep of her short 'do.
Halle Berry stepped out with a balayage bob for the closing ceremony red carpet at the 78th annual Cannes Film Festival on May 24. Berry has worked with a number of hairstylists, including Neeko, Castillo Bataille and Renato Campora.
Charlize Theron marked her return to the public eye with a dirty blond bob for her appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' on May 8. Adir Abergel has been her go-to hair artist, helping her achieve effortless waves above her shoulders.
Sarah Paulson slicked her dark brown bob behind her ears at The MOCA Gala 2025 on May 31. Paulson has kept her tresses ultra-short for some time now, working mainly with stylist Michael Forrey.
Pamela Anderson, a pioneer for the no-makeup-makeup trend, debuted a brand new bob at the 2025 Met Gala in May. She added finely-chopped micro bangs, flattening them on her forehead for the occasion.
Nicole Kidman shocked the masses at the 2025 Met Gala when she stepped out on the carpet with slicked bob. Kidman has kept her hair long for most of her life in the spotlight, never truly straying from the style until the first in Monday in May.
Ayo Edebiri gave her hair a trim above her shoulders for the SeriousFun Children's Network's 'A Night of SeriousFun' Gala in April. Edebiri has collaborated with her longtime hair architect Ro Morgan in the past, but it's not certain he was behind this look.
Cynthia Nixon sported a blond bob at the 'And Just Like That…' Season Three photo call in May at Hotel Napoleon in Paris, a far cry from the burnt orange coloring she's kept as her character, Miranda, in the show. Rebekah Forecast is the stylist who's helped maintain her even cut.

People Are Sharing Who Bradley Cooper Looks Like In These "Awkward" Photos, And I'm Going To Pee My Pants

Bradley Cooper is a jack of all trades. He's been recognized for his work as an actor in movies like Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle, and American Sniper. He's been recognized for his work as a producer on films like Joker and Guillermo del Toro's Nightmare Alley. He's also been recognized as a writer and director for films he starred in like A Star Is Born and Maestro. Writing, directing, producing, does it all! But modeling? Based on the internet's hilarious reactions, that might be an area for improvement. On June 24, Bradley was in the chillest dude outfit at Pharrell's Louis Vuitton Men's SS26 show, where a bunch of celebrities were in attendance. Bradley arrived in beige trousers, casual blue and white sneakers, and a soft blue shirt, which, in my opinion, was a vibe... ...but when he tried to pose for photos, the internet couldn't help but drag him. Related: Keke Palmer's "Sickening" Dress Has The Internet In Shambles Some people were quick to note, "Hes doing his best." But it didn't hide that he was incredibly "awkward." That pose. Some people even said he was going for the "suburban dad" look. Related: 31 Celebrity Slip-Ups On Social Media That Revealed Wayyyy More Than They Ever Intended One person said it looks like he's working a nine-to-five job. 9–5? It's also giving picture day at school. People even made jokes that he didn't look like he was attending a Louis Vuitton fashion, but perhaps another dad-friendly brand. Saying he "looks like he's wearing GAP" is wild. The best reactions were all the comparisons people made, one person asking, "is there a new Forrest Gump movie he's auditioning for?" If not Forrest, then perhaps Charlie Chaplin? Somebody wrote, it's the "Most Jason Bateman aura I've ever seen," and now I can't unsee it. "He could play Timothée Chalamet's dad in a movie," one person wrote. Other people said they "thought it was Zac Efron." But, joke's on everybody because Bradley got to sit next to Jay-Z and Beyoncé, and there was no point in trying to compete with her Cowboy Carter-inspired outfit. I think he passed the assignment, and people are just hilarious haters!

3.Paradis Men's Spring 2026: Circles in the Sand

Emeric Tchatchoua is on a mission to slow time, taking a trip to the desert for spring. 'Our main character is trapped in the desert looking for a way out, and is going round in circles looking for purpose,' said the designer backstage. 'In the desert time goes slowly.' Far from arid, his setting proved fertile inspiration for cleverly constructed tailoring that featured delicate rippled pleats evoking the movement of the sand, and tailored jackets adorned with diaphanous, sculptural sleeves embroidered with star-like crystals, evoking a mirage. More from WWD Attending Louis Vuitton With Mason Thames Beyoncé Knowles-Carter Shuts Down Paris Fashion Week With Grand Entrance at Louis Vuitton Études Studio Returns to the Runway as a Design Duo The opening look, a bomber in a patchwork of suedes in sandy hues, featured the brand's bird motifs and the message 'We are all travelers,' reprised through the collection on fun book clutches or woven leather shoppers. A graphic print of vintage watches featured on shirts and denim, and a heavy coat was embroidered with real-life timepieces. The more elaborate styles were contrasted with bright sporty tone-on-tone silhouettes with trompe l'oeil details and a series of airbrushed designs evoking the setting sun. Models including French Montana and Jean-Charles de Castelbajac meandered through the sand-strewn venue. The veteran French designer, who wore wristwatch-printed jeans with a neon pink tie and shoes under his trenchcoat, was playing the role of authority. 'I play a powerful character, a bit like Anthony Hopkins,' he said before the show, practicing his imperious face and admitting to a bout of nerves. He is an admirer of Tchatchoua's work. 'It's highly constructed and functional but very poetic, there's that duality. I love his sensitivity,' he said. The collection featured a number of collaborations this season, with J.M. Weston for the brightly colored footwear, Vilebrequin for swimming shorts and the estate of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, with well-known motifs from the classic work 'Le Petit Prince' featuring on shirts and sweaters.
