Every year, Hollywood hair trends are equal parts innovative and nostalgia-fueled, like celebs in hair bows or ribbons. In the case of 2019, it was the latter that reigned supreme. For instance, we watched celebs including Hailey Baldwin and Kim Kardashian make the oversized scrunchie a high fashion add-on, while Olivia Culpo, Lucy Hale and so many more put their hair into a time machine and ventured back to the ’90s for a blunt bob.

And if that weren’t enough, experts actually predicted that some of these throwback looks would grow in popularity this year. One thing’s for sure: A-listers can’t seem to stop wearing them. Though we typically associate this accessory with the lewks we wore as children–like the classic pigtails–they can also exude a mature elegance when incorporated into anything from a ponytail to intricate updo.

And now that we’re on the cusp of another holiday season, we can’t think of a better reason to spotlight some of our favorite red carpet hair bow moments, as at least one is bound to serve as holiday party inspo.

Pigtails, but make them box braids. Loving the light brown, velvet bows in Storm Reid’s hairdo.

The bigger the bow, the better the ponytail…at least according to Chloe Sevigny.
