Cate Blanchett has been known to sport a Peek-a-boo Bang with obvious relation to the famous hair style made iconic by Veronica Lake.
It does feel like a few stars, and their hair stylists, love to see them photographed with what is still such a striking image.
Blanchett, the acclaimed Australian actress known for her versatility and depth in acting, has been seen sporting a hairstyle reminiscent of Veronica Lake’s iconic look on several occasions. Veronica Lake was famous for her peek-a-boo hairstyle, characterized by deep waves and one side of her hair falling over an eye, creating a look of glamour and mystique that became emblematic of 1940s Hollywood.
Blanchett has occasionally drawn inspiration from this classic Hollywood style, particularly for red carpet events or in roles with a vintage aesthetic.
Adopting a Veronica Lake hairstyle involves creating deep, soft waves and sweeping them to one side, often covering one eye slightly to achieve that glamorous look. This style is both a nod to the golden age of Hollywood and a testament to its timeless appeal, fitting seamlessly with Blanchett’s renowned elegance and her celebrated performances in films that span different genres and eras.UPDATE Feb 2024
