"It girl" Iris Law, daughter of Jude Law and Sadie Frost, is living up to her art school status with this latest hairstyle. You may not know that as well as being a big-time model and a particularly cool nepo baby, the born and bred Londoner studies at the city's Central St Martins University, and if you've seen the creative crowd that bubble up out of there, then you probably won't find this look that 'out there'.
In 2021, Iris chopped off and bleached her naturally brown hair into a punky peroxide pixie cut, which she now wears as a sort of hybrid pixie bob cut. Think the 00s wag 'pob', but edgy and sometimes combined with slits in her brows. Well, she just took it up a notch (see what I did there? Notch, like in her brows), and just added two extra-long baby braids in the same bleached tone, and it's taken two-length hair to another level.
Rather than being at the front as baby braids often are, these fall down from behind her ears. It's kind of like a double rat tail plait (you know, when people grow out one braid at the nape of their neck while keeping the rest short).
Swiping through the slides, she's accessorised the look with an array of clips and bows, a youthful touch contrasting with the punky 'do in a way that feels very 90s.
We did question if they'd, in fact, been sneakily growing while clipped up, but given other recent snaps, it seems they must be clip ins.
And lets face it, she certainly knows her clip game.
