But what surprised me even more is how lovely it looks when I leave it straight. I adore the way it frames my face at the front, and my ends appear so healthy, with plenty of shine, playfulness and movement. “This haircut suits a lot of people because it’s very versatile and it can be worn curly or straight,” Hägelstam confirms. “You can play with the shorter layers, but there’s still an illusion of thickness thanks to the dynamic layers, and it’s long enough to be tied up.”

Though they’re nearing their 11th wedding anniversary, George and Amal Clooney still maintain the sweet, romantic energy of newlyweds—and Amal is dressing the part of a blushing bride.
Ahead of the Venice Film Festival this week, the couple hosted friends (including actor Shailene Woodley) in Lake Como. For dinner in Tremezzo, Clooney opted for a white off-the-shoulder minidress from Taller Marmo. Trimmed with ostrich feathers, the long-sleeve dress fit perfectly into the barrister’s recent dolce vita M.O.

COBRA TEAM / BACKGRIDUSANearly all of Clooney’s recent looks have nailed a disco bridal brief—be it the white flapper fringed Loris Azzaro dress or the one-shouldered Badgley Mischka dress, complete with silver sequins and fringe. While none of these are exactly befitting a ceremony dress, they make for great auxiliary wedding weekend looks.
So, for anyone looking to round out their wedding wardrobe with a dress fit for welcome drinks or an after-party, allow Amal Clooney and her Lake Como closet to lead the way.
