The bob haircut has always been a symbol of elegance and versatility. In recent years, some of the most famous style icons from the world of cinema have embraced it—always adding their personal touch. Among the latest to adopt this timeless cut at the start of the year were Keira Knightley, Zendaya, Cate Blanchett, Selena Gomez, and Gia Coppola, who demonstrated at the 2025 Golden Globes how this classic cut can be reinterpreted and given new life. Let’s take a look at how to wear the 2025 bob haircut.
Zendaya: The Old Hollywood Bob
Zendaya wore a short, slightly rounded red bob, reminiscent of the retro Old Hollywood style but with a contemporary twist. The bangs and the slightly tousled, voluminous lengths evoked the unmistakable elegance of past divas. Her hairstylist, Coree Moreno, explained that he was inspired by vintage glamour, reinterpreting it in a modern way.
Vintage Bob for Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez’s 1950s curled bob added a romantic touch to her much-loved outfit. The medium-short length gave it a contemporary flair that we really love. Full marks all around (engagement ring included).
2025 Bob Haircut: Keira Knightley and the Classic Bob
The actress captivated the audience at the 2025 Golden Globes with a minimal yet elegant bob, confirming the versatility and timeless appeal of this haircut. Her bob, with a center part and a length just above the collarbone, was highlighted by light golden highlights on a warm brown base. If you love a classic and understated style, Keira Knightley’s cut is the one for you.
Side-Parted Bob for Cate Blanchett
Very similar to Keira Knightley’s cut, but with the part styled to the side, the actress’s bob (which had already won us over in the past months) is just the right amount of refined. The decision to wear it shorter than the trend gives us hope: long bobs aren’t the only option. Cate paired this hairstyle with a golden Louis Vuitton dress, previously worn at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, which perfectly highlighted the honey-blonde tone of her lengths.
Bonus: wear this cut either soft with romantic waves or in an ultra-sleek version.
2025 Bob Haircut: Gia Coppola and the Flipped Bob
The director opted for a slightly messy and natural bob with an “effortless” style. With her look, Coppola demonstrated how an informal bob can be worn even on an important red carpet, like at the 2025 Golden Globes. The added touch is the long side bangs that partially cover the forehead and the “flipped” tips.
