There have been so many different versions of the classic bob style over the decades and one derivative currently proving popular is known as the Botticelli Bob.
Unsurprisingly, the Botticelli Bob takes its name from Sandro Botticelli, an Italian artist of the early Renaissance period. His paintings of mythological female characters typically feature long and wavy hair, reminiscent of waves in the ocean.
Enter the Botticelli Bob. A little longer than the traditional chin length bob but still blunt cut and sitting off the shoulder, it is characterised by gentle waves, as opposed to the traditional super-straight and sleek locks associated with this style.
The style has been seen on the Autumn/Winter 2022 catwalks and on American actress and model Laura Harrier and style icon Taylor La Shae, among others.
Suzie McGill, artistic director at Rainbow Room International, was quoted on https://www.hji.co.uk/ as saying: “Botticelli waves have an almost triangular silhouette. The top of the hair is left quite flat, whereas the mid-lengths and ends have a large amount of volume and texture. You want this look to have drama.”
