The Hair Kerchief Is Summer 2025's Must-Have Accessory
Last month, while on holiday in Curaçao, I was at a loss for what to do with my hair. It's in that sort of bob that's too short to be easily manipulated into a ponytail or pigtails, but leaving it free meant being constantly whipped in the face by wet strands as I lounged on the beach. Then Gracie Abrams performed at Glastonbury. While her oxblood Rodarte frock may have been made-to-measure, her hair accessory was far simpler: a matching bandana, folded diagonally and wrapped around her head like Christina Aguilera did in the early 2000s. 'It's a chic and effortless look inspired by style icons like Jane Birkin, Brigette Bardot, and Jean Shrimpton,' says Abrams's go-to hairstylist Bobby Eliot. 'What I love about a bandana is that it elevates a look without much effort. It also can be a way to give your hair a break from heat styling: Just spritz in a little salt spray and go.'

More recently, Hailey Bieber and Alexa Chung have bandanna-ed while on beachy holidays—as has model Olivia Joan, who chose to sweep her braids back with a white version while visiting her mother in Lake Como, Italy. 'I love how it keeps my hair out of my face and protects my scalp from looking sunburnt, while also looking fashionable,' she says of the look. 'Nothing better than when fashion and function can coexist harmoniously.'

Pamela Anderson kisses co-star Liam Neeson on red carpet after his confession about being ‘madly in love' with her
Pamela Anderson kissed Liam Neeson at the London premiere of 'The Naked Gun' after he boldly confessed he was 'madly in love' with her. Anderson gave Neeson a smooch on the cheek as they posed together on the red carpet Tuesday. The two appeared to be close, as the 'Taken' star, 73, wrapped his arm around her back while she leaned in close. The 'Baywatch' alum, 58, looked stunning in a deep purple strapless Rodarte gown, with her blonde bob styled in curls. Neeson, meanwhile, looked dapper in a gray suit, which he paired with a black shirt. The Irish actor gushed about working with Anderson on the cop comedy back in October. 'With Pamela, first off, I'm madly in love with her. She's just terrific to work with. I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you,' Neeson told People. 'She just comes in to do the work. She's funny and so easy to work with,' he continued, noting she doesn't have a 'huge ego.' The admiration is mutual as Anderson called Neeson 'the perfect gentleman.' 'He brings out the best in you … with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolute honor to work with him,' she told the outlet. The mother of two also shared the kind gestures she would do for Neeson, including making him bread and cookies and then leaving them in his dressing room. She also revealed how he took care of her. '[He] sincerely looked after me — wrapped his coat around me when I was cold,' she shared. While the co-stars are both currently single, Neeson has previously shared that he's done dating. 'I'm past all that,' he told People in October 2024. He was previously married to actress Natasha Richardson from 1994 until she died in a skiing accident in 2009. He later dated public relations executive Freya St. Johnston, though they split after two years. Solve the daily Crossword

Anderson's gown featured a form-fitting top with a flowing chiffon skirt that grazed the red carpet with a short train. As for beauty, she put an Old Hollywood spin on the aforementioned side part, with short blown out strands and her signature minimal makeup.

This isn't the first time in recent memory that Anderson has worn her hair in a side part, of course. In May, she debuted a curly, Marilyn Monroe-inspired bob that also referenced an Old Hollywood aesthetic. She also revealed a bombshell side part in the first trailer for The Naked Gun, which was released in June. Her most dramatic hair transformation, however, was arguably her blunt bob and bangs at the 2025 Met Gala. "For the Met, I wanted something strong, brave, and committed—aligned with the night's theme of tailoring from head to toe," Anderson said, adding that the hairstyle made her feel like a "feminine warrior."

Rodarte Fall 2025 Ready-to-Wear Collection
The Rodarte fall collection began with a singular hue. 'It all started with this lavender dove gray color that we wanted to work with, and that basically told the story of just wanting something that felt gothic and moody,' said Laura Mulleavy. 'When you think of these gothic stories you see a moonlit color palette, and I think we were thinking about seeing color through moonlight.' The light shade of gray did indeed evoke the moon, on soft voluminous charmeuse mutton sleeves, and on a gathered chiffon caftan whose ruffled hem gently pooled around the model like a cloud. The palette extended to a midnight crimson red, an otherworldly mint green, and the blackest black—from velvet. The lineup of dresses was imbued with the Mulleavy sisters' signature romanticism and playfulness—albeit in a more austere form than recent collections. That's not to say that the designers shied away from embellishment, but rather that their opulence glowed subtly from within, as opposed to blinding with razzle dazzle. White lace appliqués decorated bodices and delicately trimmed necklines and collars that at times hinted at a monastic feeling; the direct opposite of a simple slip dress was embellished with glitter, and another strapless column was made from sequined crochet. 'It was really fun to pick materials that felt like they created texture [and light] within themselves,' said Laura. 'Most of the dresses are not shiny, so it was the idea of seeing what would happen if you had a window and you're staring at someone and your only source of light is the moon.' 'For us, it's always been so personal; what we put forth is whatever inspires us in the moment,' added Kate. 'I always felt the person that was choosing something of ours also had an emotional attachment to it—I always think, when you can have anything you want in the world, why are you choosing this one dress?' The final gown, with its lace appliquéd Victorian bodice, princess sleeves, and white-on-black floral inlay fabric that looked as if it could glow in the dark seemed to answer that question.

Imogen Poots on Working With Rodarte, Kristen Stewart and Embracing ‘BTE'
CANNES, France — The morning after a six-minute standing ovation for 'The Chronology of Water,' Imogen Poots sits calmly in the cooly cream-colored Chanel suite. 'It was the best time ever. Getting to share it with Kristen was so special,' she said. The Kristen in questions is Stewart, of 'Twilight' fame. The actress is now a first-time director, although she is no stranger to the Cannes Film Festival having presented several projects here. More from WWD Chopard's Universe Is an Enchanted Forest Filled With Fashion Spike Lee Laces Up Jordan Spizike Sneakers to Complement His Knicks-themed Zoot Suit for Cannes Film Festival 2025 'Naked Dress Originator' Bob Mackie Defends Cannes Film Festival Dress Code: 'The Trend Has Truly Spiraled Out of Control' The film is in this year's Un Certain Regard section, and in competition for the Camera d'Or prize which recognizes best first film. For the red carpet, Poots selected a black lace Rodarte gown. The British actress does not personally know the L.A.-based design duo Kate and Laura Mulleavy, but they remain a fashion favorite. 'They're my absolute favorite brand and always have been,' she said. 'I just think everything they do is so interesting and cool, and they don't follow any pattern or trends. What they make is artwork to me.' The dress was chosen with her stylist Chloe Hartstein, whom she credits not just with fashion guidance but creative partnership. She finished the ensemble with a smoky eye look made with Inika products, a vegan, organic and cruelty-free Aussie brand. Despite the glamour, Poots is quick to ground herself. 'I'm probably more of a T-shirt and jeans person,' she admits. 'But I really admire fashion. I love it. I mean, it's art. The turnaround is so fast, but it's a very kind of magical realm to me.' Poots' respect for the creative process carries into her work on 'Water,' Stewart's bold and raw directorial debut. Aside from the standing ovation, the film has earned solid reviews. 'It was really great to finally birth the film,' said Poots of seeing it on the big screen at the Palais des Festivals for the first time. 'I was just so proud of Kristen and everybody who worked on the project. It was a pretty bold film that Kristen decided to make for her debut.' The film pulls no punches from its intense, often disturbing and ultimately redemptive storytelling. Based on Lidia Yuknavitch's memoir, the film's non-linear structure and raw story of abuse and overcoming addiction was immersive and emotionally demanding. '[The book] felt very much like a living document, like it was breathing,' Poots said. 'It's not linear in any sense, and yet it's a life that's contained in those pages.' The story's themes hit home for Poots. '[Yuknavitch] was dealt cards that she had nothing to do with,' she said. 'She was subjected to things that she had nothing to do with and made choices off of that. And that can happen so often to women — the expectation on how we're supposed to be, how we're supposed to act, what we're supposed to hide, how we're supposed to be pitted against one another. These are really damaging. It's very much a disease that's kind of inoculated into your brain at birth by culture.' Working with Stewart deepened the experience. 'She's absolutely incredible — instinctive, very precise, completely singular,' said Poots. The two formed a special bond as actor and director, in part due to the intimate nature of indie filmmaking and the intense nature of the subject. As a result, they developed a rare creative shorthand on set. 'The kind of director-actor dynamic melted away,' she said. Everything about working with a director of the same age and same background of an actor that started young, created a close-knit atmosphere on set. The 'Twilight' star's own experience as an actor played a key role. '[Kristen] understands what it is to have three thoughts at once, be saying one thing while you're thinking another,' said Poots. 'What's amazing is she's already there with you.' The mental jump allowed Poots and Stewart to make physical jumps as well. Poots learned how to swim and dive from former child champions from Brazil and Ukraine. Everything that followed was intense. Due to budget limits, the film was shot in Latvia on a shoestring. And besides budget limitations, the material created a sense of urgency and honesty with the two playing off of each other's knowledge. Stewart's essence is putting all her cards on the table, and that ethos was equal on set. 'You're screaming at each other like sports coaches,' she said. 'But because of that, if you really respect someone, you owe them your honesty.' To call Yuknavitch a character is dismissive, as Poots is playing a real person that is not the classic film heroine. 'The female experience has often been so reactive, and that's expected, and it's very confronting when that doesn't follow through. For me the rhythm [of Yuknavitch's story] is jolting. The way she has lived her life is like, there is a right thing and a wrong thing and I'm going to do the other thing,' said Poots. 'It always feels like she is peeling off a layer.' The approach of working with a peer like Stewart, who had felt so passionate about the story that she reached out to the author before she even hit page 40 of the book, was to pursue all-out rawness on screen. There was no competition, Poots said, or proving someone is right or wrong — it was more about making sure the team could achieve the most honest emotion possible. 'That's what happened with the two of us — if it can be better, let's make it better. That doesn't need to make anybody feel insecure or defensive.' Poots' spirit of collaboration goes beyond 'Water.' She recently wrapped the romantic drama 'All of You,' directed by William Bridges and costarring 'Ted Lasso''s Brett Goldstein. The film was less intense than 'Water,' and is expected out in September. These days, Poots spends time on getting back to basics with swimming and life drawing as hobbies. She goes to a studio most days and spends other days swimming. Following 'Water,' she finds the immersion meditative. Both are pretty solo activities, she admitted. 'I should really, like, see people occasionally, right?' she joked. Even though she learned quickly and intensely, swimming brought her more than just skill for the film. She's taken it back to real life. And that is Poots' 'BTE' — a phrase coined by Stewart during a press conference during the festival. 'Imogen was just the only person that could play this part,' Stewart said. 'She doesn't have, like, big tits or anything, but she seems like she does. I'm like, she has 'big tit energy.' Like 'big dick energy' — BDE. She has BTE. I was like, you don't, but somehow, I feel like you have big tits, and you have to play this part.' So how does Poots feel about such a description? It's 100 percent a compliment for the actress, especially coming from Stewart. 'If you have it, you don't know it, you just have it. You don't have to have big boobs because you've got the energy. I've got 'BTE,' watch out,' she joked. 'I would love that on a T-shirt.'
