Taylor-Joy’s pleated green scarf was perfectly wound around her hair and chin, with the two braids peeking out from either side. At first, I thought they were just tucked under the scarf, but if you check out the side view, you’ll see that they’re actually pulled through an opening in the fabric. (I also love that she used regular hair ties—one brown, one black—instead of wrapping hair around the tie to disguise it or cinching her style with clear bands.)
While the braids may be more Little House on the Prairie than Parisian, Taylor-Joy’s Dior sunglasses and cherry red lipstick are definitely high luxury. And if you thought one scarf was enough, think again! The actor wore another scarf wrapped around her shoulders like a shawl and tied another around her bag.
Taylor-Joy’s scarf-and-braids combo isn’t just stylish; it’s also practical. What if she got invited to ride in a race car? Her hair would stay in place even at high speed! There’s a reason old movie stars like Marilyn Monroe always wrapped a scarf around their pin curls before hopping into a convertible. Plus, once Taylor-Joy takes out the braids, she can rock summery beach waves. That’s what I call multitasking.
