Simona Tabasco Was Credited With Beginning the Italian Bob Craze. Now, She’s Ditched It
In late 2022, Italian actor Simona Tabasco starred in The White Lotus’s second season—and a hair motion akin to “The Rachel” was born. Dubbed “The Italian Bob” due to Tabasco’s nation of origin and the romantic, la dolce vita ease that the haircut conjures, the type—a chin-length bob parted to the aspect and worn with lots of physique—quickly started popping up in every single place.
A little bit over a yr later, we’ve seen the chop on everyone from Hailey Bieber to Zendaya (and this editor has it herself)—and it’s nonetheless going robust on the 2024 awards circuit. That’s, aside from on Tabasco herself, who arrived at tonight’s Emmy Awards with hair that reaches…past her collarbone?!
Is it time to place down the proverbial shears? (I solely say “proverbial” as a result of I might by no means have the ability to reduce my very own hair.) Are we following Tabasco into longer-hair pastures? Solely time will inform if lengths proceed to develop, or if the bob is right here to remain. However for tonight, Tabasco’s Outdated Hollywood hair (completely paired with a Marni sticker gown) is nice springtime inspiration.
