Last night, Snooki showed up on my TikTok For You page. Today, Zendaya seemingly wore a Bumpit—the very hair-heightening apparatus made famous by the Jersey Shore star—to the Louis Vuitton Womenswear Spring/Summer 2026 show. Coincidence?
Probably.
But it speaks volumes—no pun intended—about how a bouffant defies the parameters of style and time, refusing to be kept down. (OK, the pun was intended that time.)
Zendaya arrived for her front-row seat at the September 30 show in a metallic foil mini dress with fur trim, its retro vibes only amplified by her hairstyle: what stylist Ursula Stephen calls a ’60s-meets-’90s bouffant. The smooth look features a ton of oomph at the back of the head, while the front is framed in a swoopy, super-deep side part.
