Heads-Up: There's a new hair accessory du jour among the fashion crowd. And it's not a bow! Headbands are having something of a renaissance. No, not the girthy padded Prada ones we've grown accustomed to seeing in our feeds. (Sorry, Blair Waldorfs of the world.) The newest version decorating models' and showgoers' heads is a thick, 60s- and 70s-reminiscent jersey headband. Like the one you might wear to work out or wash your face, but chicer.
Kidding aside, wide, stretchy headbands have gathered the hair of many an iconic film star in some of their most iconic roles. Think Barbra Streisand in 1973's The Way We Were, Brigitte Bardot in 1962's Vie Privée, Ursula Andress in 1963's Fun in Acapulco. It's not just film stars who've made waves in headbands, though. For her runway debut at Marc Jacobs Fall 2014, Kendall Jenner wore a rich plum headband that accentuated her pearly iridescent makeup and dusty-colored wig.
