Hunter Schafer is known for her whimsical, creative approach to beauty. Born of her own artistry and Euphoria's influence, the actress has all but perfected idiosyncratic makeup, from lavender lengths to saturated splashes of eyeshadow to well-placed facial adornments. And this weekend, Schafer took things up a notch, seemingly snipping her peroxide lengths to skim her shoulders.

As seen on Instagram, hairstylist Rena Calhoun provided Schafer’s recently shorn ’do to slick effect, blonde strands separated at center and sculpted into a flippy bob worn tucked behind ears for extra stay-in-place polish. Coupled with a monochromatic suit by Dion Lee, the look toed the line between futuristic and retro, calling to mind a present-tense interpretation of character Beth Harmon's aesthetic in The Queen’s Gambit. But the edging of coordinated purple shadow pulled beneath each eye, reaching to meet a smokey cat eye, plus the thigh-high boots? Those details are entirely down to Schafer. Stay tuned: The highly stylized chop may just be a theme of the season.
