Simone Ashley: This is what makes her side swept bangs so special
The British Fashion Awards, which are presented annually at the Royal Albert Hall in London, are a real fashion festival. Ashley Graham, for example, wore a black, semi-transparent one, which once again reminded us that transparency and elegance are not mutually exclusive, and Nicole Kidman appeared in a tight floral dress with spaghetti straps that clearly said: the 90s are here to stay.
But the beauty looks were also on point this year - right at the forefront was Simone Ashley's hairstyle, which brings a breath of fresh air into the world of pony hairstyles. Her “side swept” bangs are visually somewhere between Audrey Hepburn’s iconic baby bangs, loose onesand an asymmetrical onefrom the Berlin techno scene.

What achieves this special effect? Let's take a look at the details of her bangs: The ends are cut and almost appear choppy - and yet don't form a clear line because of the different asymmetrical lengths. The different strands are longer than a micro bangs but shorter than a classic straight bangs and end well above the eyebrows. And as if all that wasn't special enough, Simone Ashley's bangs were also set to the side using a styling agent (we assume gel) and a comb so that the lengths lay diagonally over the forehead.
