In her latest video ‘Sunset Blvd.’, Selena Gomez channels the vibrant style of the 1980s, featuring a playful hairstyle and bold makeup that pays homage to the era.

Selena Gomez has recently showcased a vibrant homage to the 1980s with the release of her new music video titled “Sunset Blvd.” Directed by Petra Collins, a frequent collaborator, and featuring her fiancé Benny Blanco, the video exhibits Gomez’s transformation into a quintessential ’80s icon.

In this nostalgic piece, Gomez’s hairstyle is a standout feature. Styled by Renato Campora, her hair is characterized by a fluffy, curly bob that evokes the style of the mid-1980s. Rather than the heavily hairsprayed bangs typically associated with the decade, Gomez and Campora opted for a gentler interpretation, creating volume at the roots with a deep side part. This departure from the polished red carpet looks highlights Gomez’s playful demeanor in the flirty video, where she often runs her fingers through her full, tousled curls.

The aesthetic of the ’80s continued with her makeup, crafted by artist Hung Vanngo. The vibrant look is completed with bold red blush on Gomez’s cheeks and a striking crimson hue on her lips, likely Rare Beauty’s Kind Words Matte Lipstick in the shade “Devoted,” which Gomez has frequently worn. Emphasizing the matchy-matchy trend, the same bright red appears on her nails. Manicurist Tom Bachik revealed that she is adorned with a yet-to-be-released nail polish from his line titled “Stilettos,” and noted that the impressive length of the nails is entirely natural, with no extensions used.

This creative and nostalgic approach to glamor signifies a broader cultural appreciation for the distinctive styles of the past, as seen in Gomez’s vibrant portrayal of the era’s fashion trends. With such strong references to the decades gone by, it appears that the glamour of the ’80s is experiencing a revival, inviting fans to embrace the era’s bold fashion choices once more.
