Zendaya just debuted wispy bangs and we’re obsessed

Just when we thought bangs were out…

When it comes to premieres and red carpets, Zendaya never misses—remember her yellow dress at the Oscars or what about her honey blonde hair moment—and this campaign trail is no exception. 

The looks have been served. First, we had the straight-off-the--runway Loewe SS22 chest plate dress followed by a sculptural Rick Owens gown—name a more iconic Rick Owens red carpet moment—and now, she's just proved the rule again at the London premiere of Dune where she showed off her new wispy bangs. 

Just when we thought the era of bangs was coming to an end, Zendaya has given it a second wind and it’s giving us serious 70s vibes.

Thanks to Dune’s press tour we have been treated to so many Zendaya and Timothée Chalamet fashion moments which we will always be eternally grateful for, but this may be our favorite so far...

The duo posed together, with Timothée wearing a seriously cool mushroom patterned Stella McCartney suit, and Zendaya pairing a Viviene Westwood top constructed of chains with a new wispy fringe.

The actress, who is rumored to be dating Spiderman co-star Tom Holland, wore her long, chestnut hair in soft waves, with her feathered bangs hitting just at her eyebrows—giving her a sultry, effortlessly cool look. 

This has to be one of our favorite celebrity hair transformations, up there with the likes of Billie’s platinum blonde hair and Miley Cyrus’ Wolf cut.

She posted the look to her Instagram account, and the comments prove that we’re not the only ones who just fell back in love with bangs 

One wrote: “Yassssssssssss the Baangsssss!!! 🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️”

Another said: “THE HAIR THOOOO”

And a third commented with: “Come on with the bangs 😍”

For all you Tom and Zendaya stans out there, he’s also been obsessing over her Dune looks, posting a solo picture of her, looking incredible obviously, to his Instagram feed with the simple caption: “Dune😍 ''—we love to see it.

So if you were on the hunt for your fall look, you’ve just found it and so have we. We’ll be taking these pictures straight to the salon because if Zendaya says bangs are back, they’re back.
