The MET Gala is the one stage that you will see a lot of glamour. Old Hollywood waves have been coined as being the red-carpet's go-to hairstyle for some of our favourite stars from the 70s, 80s, 90s, y2k and beyond — from Marylin Monroe and Dita Von Teese, these stars have not missed a beat.
It's always true in hair and beauty that everything comes back around. From hair colours to cuts and everything in-between, so many modern and trending hairstyles have taken inspiration from old Hollywood retro looks.
Icons such as Elizabeth Taylor, Mia Farrow and Audrey Hepburn have all inspired decades of hairstyles, including pixie crops and gentle waves.
Then come the MET Gala, the most fashionable and glamourous night of the year we have been fiening over for the last two years. Since we had to miss out on it last year because of the pandemic.
However, boy was it worth the wait. These modern-day A-listers are famous for their lust-worthy locks, and some have bought them back especially for us to bear witness at the iconic MET Gala beige carpet. The girls really brought Hollywood in the streets of the Upper East Side and we are not mad at them.
For some major inspo on some of our favourite New Hollywood wave moments from this MET Gala and other red carpet moments you will be obcessing over from her on out... if you keep scrolling, your eyes won't regret it.
