At the New York Film Festival last weekend, actress Cate Blanchett presented her new film Rumors. She caused quite a stir with her outfit because her top consisted of long, blonde hair.

Cate Blanchett turns heads in a long hair top

Cate Blanchett appeared at the film premiere in flared leather trousers and pointed, classic pumps. She elevated the understated lower ensemble with a striking hairy top featuring long, blonde strands of hair cascading past her hips. The blonde hair wrapped around the actress’ upper body like a poncho. The color of the fake hair matched her own perfectly.

Incidentally, the leather trousers with flared legs seem to be Cate Blanchett’s new favorite. Just two days earlier, she wore the same trousers on the red carpet of the “Albie Awards 2024”. She appeared there with her 20-year-old son Roman.

Cate Blanchett’s iconic spoon top: A bold fashion statement

Cate Blanchett has proven that she often opts for eccentric pieces, and not just once in the recent past. It was only a few months ago that the actress dared to take a similarly bizarre walk down the red carpet. This summer, she appeared at the premiere of the film Borderlands in a spoon top. The halterneck top by Swedish designer Ellen Hodakova Larsson was made from 102 recycled silver spoons sourced from Stockholm and the surrounding area.

The Swedish designer is known for garments made from rather unusual materials. For example, actress Emma Corrin was seen wearing a dress by Ellen Hodakova Larsson that was made exclusively from old leather belts.
