Oscar 2023: bun and chignon win. The best hairstyles

A real beauty triumph of sparkles, peaks of color, hair with sleek effects and a succession of buns and chignons declined in all shapes and textures. Starting with one of the most classic, the ultra-clean and rigorous one sported by an elegant woman Cara Delevingne. An essential and unfailingly sophisticated hair look, perfect for framing her powerful doe gaze. In the same vein sleek, we find Elizabeth Olsen and her low chignon, closely followed by Jennifer Connelly and Emily Bluntboth with a crop pinned to the middle of the neck.

Less sharp than its colleagues, but decidedly softer and equally chic is the low crop with salt and pepper tones by Andie Macdowell, and the tall one, indeed very tall and with a fake disheveled effect, of Rihanna.

If classic chignon and bun win hands down, as always there is no shortage of scenographic and sculptural hairstyles – read on Florence Pugh, Ashley Graham and Vanessa Hudgens – but also unfailing loose, flowing hair, like jessica chastain romantic with its bouncy waves, Salma Hayek, who opts for a mermaid hair version that anticipates summer, and more Nicole Kidmanwith XL lengths with a bedhead finish.

Make-up side, the Red lipstick, in all its nuances and finishes, reigns supreme – read, among others, Michelle Williams, Lady Gaga – who will remove make-up for her performance -, Jessica Chastain, Rihanna, Elizabeth Olsen -, as well as prevailing are luminous, ethereal, relaxed complexions, warmed up here and there by touches of blush.

Eyes seduce with fan-effect eyelashes and scratchy feline features, and shine with a sprinkling of sparkling, bright, shining eyeshadows.

It is no coincidence that it is the night of the stars.
