Nicole Kidman
'The inspiration was a tailored short cut that brought out the essence of Dandyism on Nicole Kidman. I wanted to celebrate this year's theme by honoring the Dandies and their individuality, elegance, and confidence — where every detail is tailored to that unique person,' Abergel wrote on Instagram.
Ciara
Ciara opted for a similar version of Kidman's bob. The singer's hairstylist, Cesar Ramirez, created her look with L'Oréal Professionnel tools, including the brand's AirLight Pro, and Kérastase products.
Anderson wore a short blond bob with baby bangs, reminiscent of Joan of Arc. Her bangs were cut straight across and now sit high above her brows.
Pamela Anderson
Styled by hairstylist Mara Roszak, Saldaña showed up with a 1920s dandy bob. The hairdo was 'inspired by the tapered, sleek, tailored lines and exaggerated shapes found in signature dandy fashion,' according to Roszak.
Roszak created the look using Santa Lucia Styling Oil before blow-drying and an Evergreen Styling Cream for definition.
Zoe Saldaña
The 2025 Met Gala, held Monday at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, featured the theme 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.' The event highlighted Black dandyism and menswear, with a 'Tailored for You' dress code. Cochairs include Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, Pharrell Williams and Anna Wintour.
