Shorter than ever before, the micro-mini bang is having a moment

In the Heights

Like so many things in life, it boils down to a commitment issue. Are you ready to go under the knife—or should we say scissors—daring your hairdresser to chop a fringe high above your eyebrows, quelling the words strangling your throat, the voice that says, It’ll take years to grow these things out! Or do you grit your teeth, shut your eyes, and dream that when you open them you will swing around in the barber’s chair looking like Audrey Hepburn in Sabrina?

Fraught and terrifying as the prospect of cutting shorties might be, the micromini bang is undeniably having a moment. Sometimes they skew edgy and subversive, like Bella Hadid’s spiky and gelled wisps for Marc Jacobs’s latest eyewear campaign, or more classic, like Emily Ratajkowski’s and Olivia Rodrigo’s trompe l’oeil fringe for the Met Gala, a choppy, extra-abbreviated hack that made a radical statement—if only for one night.

Coming Up Rosy - The new blush isn't just for the cheek. Coco Mellors feels the flush.

If the eyes are the window to the soul, then our cheeks are the back door. What other part of the body so readily reveals our hidden emotions? Embarrassment, exuberance, delight, desire, all instantly communicated with a rush of blood. It's no wonder that blush has been a mainstay of makeup bags for decades: Ancient Egyptians used ground ochre to heighten their color; Queen Elizabeth I dabbed her cheeks with red dye and mercuric sulfide (which, combined with the vinegar and lead concoction she used to achieve her ivory pallor, is believed to have given her blood poisoning); flappers applied blush in dramatic circles to achieve a doll-like complexion, even adding it to their knees to draw attention to their shorter hemlines
