‘Something a serial killer would enjoy!’ fashion fans cry over necktie made of hair – as Selma Blair wears it to Paris

0

STATEMENT fashion is about stepping out of your comfort zone, but some fans believe it’s possible to take it too far.

Selma Blair raised eyebrows when she modeled a necktie made of hair while attending the Schiaparelli Haute Couture Fall 2024 show during Paris Fashion Week on Monday.

The blonde sported a matching platinum hair tie by the designer paired with a crisp white shirt, beige suit jacket, matching pants, and a dark brown belt.

The look came straight from the runway.

Critics were shocked when Schiaparelli debuted the literal hair ties in March at its Fall 2024 Ready-to-Wear show in Paris.

The models sported classy workwear, strutting down the catwalk dressed in menswear-inspired suits.

While nearly every aspect of the suits was on par with traditional menswear, from the lofty shoulders to slouchy pants and loafers, an accessory stood out.

Each model wore a thick chunk of braided hair instead of a necktie.

One model sported a platinum blonde necktie just like the one Selma sported this week.

According to the fashion house, the neckties “paid homage to the surrealist element of hair inspired by Pippa Garner, Mimi Parent, and by Meret Oppenheim’s iconic fur bracelet for Elsa Schiaparelli.”

Some fashion fans poked fun at the avant-garde design on Reddit in March, admitting they couldn’t wrap their head around the style.

“This looks like something a serial killer would enjoy,” joked one Redditor.

“That American Psycho drip right there,” agreed another.

“It looks like they killed a dwarf and are wearing the beard as a trophy,” said a third.

A few were more concerned about the inevitable garment care.

“When they need cleaning, do you send them to the dry cleaners or the hair salon?” asked one commenter.

“Hair salon is my vote because you would need someone to braid it back nicely,” said another.

“Flyaways are the worst when you have an important presentation coming up!”

Some, however, thought that the neckties were a cut above the rest.

A TikTok video about the unconventional necktie also had commenters weighing in on the look last spring.

Many felt that the accessory looked great — on the red carpet.

“People don’t understand the difference between editorial and ready-to-wear,” said one commenter.

“I was gagging over the neck braid! But it’s not every day,” said another.

“That is fire, though,” said a third.
