Demi Lovato's Messy Braids Win Paris Fashion Week
A perfectly undone hairstyle.
Only certain people can make "just-rolled-out-of-bed" hair look chic, and today I learned that Demi Lovato is one of them. The singer has been serving some incredible looks during Paris Fashion Week over the last few days, but I'm mostly impressed by the grungy, perfectly-undone hairstyle she wore to a recent showcase.
On Oct. 4, Lovato attended the Ann Demeulemeester Womenswear Spring/Summer 2026 show, where she showed up wearing an all-black outfit that featured a flowy maxi skirt, a lace-up crop top, and a blazer. Her jet black hair was styled in natural waves with a middle part, but if you look a little more closely you can see a few small braids installed in various places around her head. She completed the grungy look with smokey eye makeup and a nude lip.

Lovato's messy, braided look is a steep departure from the slick bun and side piece she previously wore to a Vivienne Westwood show last week, which was giving chic business casual. Her hair was styled by hairstylist Fitch Lunar, who also did her bachelorette party hair and the style she wore in her music video for her single, "Fast."
