Kim Kardashian Channels Her Mid-Aughts Vibe with Old Hollywood Waves
Kim Kardashian is no stranger to nostalgia, and she’s taken a stylish trip back in time with her latest hairstyle. Known for her love of vintage fashion, Kim has previously donned iconic pieces like Princess Diana’s stunning amethyst cross necklace at the 2024 LACMA Art + Film Gala and the legendary “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” dress made famous by Marilyn Monroe at the 2022 Met Gala. This time, she’s revisiting her own early style roots — specifically her mid-aughts looks.
While on the set of her highly anticipated new project, Ryan Murphy’s legal drama “All’s Fair,” Kim showcased glamorous Old Hollywood waves, reminiscent of the classic stars we all admire. Fans are eager for this show not only to see Kim embody her character as a law student stepping into her legal aspirations but also to witness the striking fashion and beauty moments that are sure to unfold.
Recent teasers shared on social media, including snapshots from her hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos, reveal that Kardashian is swapping her ’90s aesthetics for a refined throwback style characterized by the soft waves that made screen icons like Veronica Lake and Rita Hayworth household names.
Completing her retro look, Kim sported a white corseted suit, a custom creation by Dilara Findikoglu, enhanced with red fishnet stockings and stylish pointed-toe heels. Her achievement didn’t stop with the waves; her makeup was a throwback in itself, echoing the doll-like lashes, warm bronzing, and glossy nude lips that were all the rage around 2011.
Kardashian has certainly evolved her style since her Old Hollywood era from the mid-aughts, experimenting with everything from long extensions to trendy wet mermaid waves to chic bleached bobs. Yet, she consistently revisits this timeless glam, as seen in her recent appearance at the 2024 Academy Museum of Motion Pictures Gala. And who can blame her? These soft waves remain a captivating choice for anyone looking to embody a sense of everlasting elegance and sophistication.
