How the Red Carpet Ponytail Became Cannes’s Breakout Beauty Trend

Kendall Jenner

Over the past week, the Cannes Film Festival has found its most stylish actresses and models pushing the boundaries of above-the-neck statement beauty—but there’s one unexpectedly casual trend that is quietly sweeping the red carpet. At once polished, youthful, and feminine, black-tie ponytails channel a new modern elegance, ideal for drawing attention to plunging necklines, glittering jewels, and highly photogenic faces.

Bella Hadid swapped her airport-friendly travel knot for a long, sleek iteration of the ponytail with blunt ends, an aesthetic that was also echoed by Adriana Lima, who finished her glossy tie-up with a black satin hair band and catlike flicks of eyeliner. Blake Lively raked her calling-card blonde strands into an elevated ponytail—all the better to showcase the welcome beauty benefits of a baby bump. And though Kendall Jenner’s lineup of Cannes looks has steered unapologetically glamorous, her high, textured take on the style telegraphed the best of her breezy California-girl spirit. Above, our favorite ponytails of the week from the Côte d’Azur.
