Or, go more festive with Jennifer Behr’s beloved velvet style in a dazzling deep red that’s jolly as can be. If coquette ribbons aren’t your speed, consider a bejeweled headband instead. Eugenia Kim has a crystal-embellished one that can add a touch of flair to any all-black party look; whereas, Clio Peppiatt’s is hand-adorned with pearls, beads, and crystals in a plush ivory satin.

Not to worry, there are many hair accessories perfect for daily wear, too. I’ve seen many an editor use one of Lelet’s sculptural hair cuffs to sweep hair back into a low ponytail before busy workdays. Take your pick of gold and silver finishes by the New York-based label, or acryllic versions in a host of earthy browns, greens, and ivories from Free People. Or, you can upgrade your hair tie with a flowered scrunchie by Maryam Nassir Zadeh and Sandy Liang like all the street style stars at the Copenhagen spring 2025 shows. For something more sleek, we’ve been obsessed with Lie Studio’s clip and Alexandre de Paris’s french pin. Both are versatile enough for hair worn up or down. And nothing beats a classic claw clip—thank goodness for Machete, France Luxe, and Emi Jay for timeless styles sure to be worn again and again. All of these and more, below, in Vogue’s edit of hair accessories to sport into 2025 and beyond.
