Hipsters will call it “The F/W 06 Dior Homme”. Fashion Insiders will call it the “Crass Cut”. Celebifans will call it ‘the hairstyle-of-that-women-who-inspired-that-supercool-movie-The-Devil-Wear-Prada-but-I-can’t-remember-her-name-right-now”.
Patricia Schmid w/ Proezna Schouler
No matter what you dub it, the banged bob is back!
With its blunt ends and graphic shape, the banged bob is emerging as the top hairstyle for fall. Seen on everyone from the model in the F/W 06 Gucci ad campaign to Proenza Schouler muse, Patricia Schmid, it appears that the time has come to bid a final adieu to Gisele-like waves. This new cut complements the dramatic shapes and linear lines of fall’s looks – it’s the same no-nonsense, utilitarian approach that’s has pushed grunge and sauvage chic to the front of fashion.

The real question remains whether this look will translate down to the streets? While most will probably steer away from the Wintour-take on this look, variations on the cut can be seen on Leigh Lezark from MisShapes, her asymmetrical bob a signature of her rock style, and

Ms. Anna Wintour
Get ready to look fierce, a la Miss Wintour, this fall. After all, they don’t call her the devil for nothing.
Have you seen Vogue’s editorial featuring Natalia Vodianova wearing a red bob wig? It’s pure pleasure.
