Paris Haute Couture Week is in full swing, and while it’s mostly about the fashion… it’s not all about the fashion. At Matthieu Blazy’s Chanel Haute Couture debut (the week’s hottest ticket, alongside Jonathan Anderson’s first couture outing for Dior), singer Gracie Abrams was on the front row – and sporting a chic new hairstyle.

Abrams arrived for the show dressed in a black, white and canary yellow Chanel jacket styled with beige trousers and cap-toe heels. But it was her new, French-girl coded pixie cut that caught the attention of team Vogue. “Very Audrey Tautou,” my colleague Liam Hess observed.

Having been something of a bob loyalist since she went for the big chop in 2023, Gracie is the rare pop girly who tends to stay away from Rapunzel lengths, preferring the freedom of a neck-grazing cut. She’s an LA girl, but her fresh pixie cut couldn’t be more appropriate for a trip to the couture shows in Paris.
