Selena Gomez Channels Twiggy With an Unexpected Hairstyle—And Fans Are Here For It

Selena Gomez and her undeniably influential hair, makeup, and manicures never fail to get people talking, and the Emilia Pérez star’s latest look is certainly no exception.

But this time, fans weren’t just influenced; they were surprised—and maybe even a little confused. Because while Gomez is known and beloved for experimenting with varying hair lengths, bangs, and colors, the 32-year-old attended the November 17 Governors Awards in Los Angeles with a hairstyle we had never seen her with before.

Seemingly channeling 1960s supermodel Twiggy with a hint of modern-day Wednesday Addams, Gomez seriously embraced her inner dark feminine energy with a chic, slicked-back style so sleek it’s actually hard to tell if it’s still wet, a pixie cut, or just an elaborately constructed updo. But most interesting of all is the fact that Gomez and her go-to celebrity hairstylist Renato Campora—who’s also responsible for Angelina Jolie’s recent disco curls—opted to leave just a few strands of hair out on and around her forehead, styling them to the side with what looks like gel.

Gomez’s makeup, on the other hand, looked familiar. Created by celebrity makeup artist Hung Vanngo with Rare Beauty products, Gomez stunned with a subtle yet statement-making smoky eye, nude lip, and voluminous brushed brows.

Gomez completed the ensemble with bold statement drop earrings that look like feathers and a classic tuxedo-inspired look. Gomez wore a stunning black sequin Ralph Lauren gown complete with contrasting white cuffs and a crisp white collar, which really seems like something Wednesday Addams would wear if she worked in fashion.

While Gomez’s glam was unexpected, fans were quick to share that they felt Gomez and her glam squad more than pulled it off. How? Well, they literally told them: Both Vanngo and Campora shared a behind-the-scenes reel of Gomez’s complete Governors Awards glam and were met with instant admiration for Gomez’s elegant yet edgy look.
