We love a bit of celebrity hair inspiration, so why not headscarves too?
From Eva Mendes to Amal Clooney, these stars make turbans and head wraps look fabulous. Who are we to argue with Queen B’s style? It’s just not happening.
Whether you’re after a luxe silk number, a spot of animal print, or some sequins, you’ll find an option below.
Blessedly, the Dubai humidity has calmed down a bit of late, but we’re still not without the odd bad hair day. Help is at hand.
BEYONCÉ
When Lemonade came out in 2016 and after our tears had dried, we couldn’t help but focus on the visual album’s styling. There’s a lot to love – the yellow Hold Up dress was sublime – but this head wrap was a real highlight.
SOLANGE KNOWLES
Keeping it in the family, here’s younger sister Solange Knowles DJing in style back in 2010. Love that pattern with her plain top and minimal makeup.
EVA MENDES
There’s something very 60s-glam about this 2012 look on Mendes. Almost a bit Valley of the Dolls? It’s working, anyway.

KAROLINA KURKOVA
How’s this for glamour? Kurkova wore this Rachel Zoe number to New York’s Met Gala in 2012.
LUPITA NYONG’O
If this was anyone else, we’d say they were legally required to wear orange at all times, but Nyong’o makes every colour look this good. What a dreamboat.

THESE UNKNOWN BEAUTIES
If you’re not already following @70sbabes on Instagram, consider this your opportunity. Has leopard print ever looked this good? Sure, they’re not famous, but they look it.
EVA HERZIGOVA
For legendary photographer Mario Testino’s 60th birthday in 2014, Herzigova went for a dark, vampy 1940s style. Feeling it.
ALICIA KEYS
For a much more casual (but still super cool) look, here’s Keys pictured in Berlin this year. How good are those sunglasses?
HALIMA ADEN
To finish off, you can’t go past this absolute angel and cover girl. We love her sporty, sleek look.
