The Effortless Waves That Turned Heads at the Vanity Fair 2025 Oscar Party
Jenna Ortega knows how to make an entrance, and her Vanity Fair 2025 Oscar Party look was no exception. Ditching anything too structured, she went for soft, tousled waves that enhanced her signature curtain cut (aka the trending “kitty cut”)—the kind that feels effortless but still turns heads.
Celebrity hairstylist Bobby Eliot (@bobbyeliot) took inspiration from Jenna’s archival Donna Karan 2004 gown. “We wanted the style to be luxurious yet relaxed, complementing the gown while embracing Jenna’s natural beauty,” Bobby says. The result? Polished waves with just the right amount of movement, brought to life with OLAPLEX®, BELLAMI Hair and L’Oréal Professionnel.
Below, Bobby shares how the look came together, step by step.
