Jennifer Lopez understands high-impact glamour — and how to step into a new signature. For a front-row stint at Valentino’s spring 2024 haute couture show (titled Valentino Le Salon) in Paris, Lopez played up and on her freshly snipped mane, opting for a half-up ’60s style, secured with a romantic ribbon.
In contrast to her short-haired debut at Schiaparelli, which saw Lopez’s hair combed into an edgy wet look, as if she had dashed from salon to show, the pop star’s (notably extended) near-bouffant was all about polish and buoyant volume, à la vintage Catherine Deneuve. Lest you have any doubts as to era reference, Lopez’s beribboned (likely teased by Chris Appleton) mane came accompanied by a liquid cat-eye that was further framed by an arch of smokey liner above each lid, a quintessential ’60s statement.
She may be known for her long and luxurious waves, but in Lopez’s world, a shorter hairstyle offers an equal opportunity for drama and versatility.
