Nicola Peltz Beckham channels her mother-in-law, Victoria Beckham, with a new layered bob for fall.
Fall 2024 has shaped up to be a playground for bold hair makeovers, and Nicola Peltz Beckham just entered the ranks of celebrities flying fresh new cuts. Recently, both Selena Gomez and Kim Kardashian tried out flipped bob cuts, Dua Lipa dyed her hair black as black licorice, Kylie Jenner went jet-black just in time for the spooky season, and Zendaya did a full Cher on her waist-length brown hair. Now, Nicola Peltz Beckham joins the ranks of celebrity switch-ups with a chic, new bob – and we are here for it.
On October 21, Nicola sent fans into a frenzy with an otherwise pedestrian Instagram photo taken at a gas station and captioned “passenger princess.” But what seemed like just another low-key, unremarkable photo quickly proved otherwise among beauty fans who couldn’t help but catch sight of the star’s newest hair transformation: a sleek bob cut, instantly dripping in major Posh Spice vibes. As the daughter-in-law of one Victoria Beckham, it feels only natural that Nicola should be rocking this nod to her mother-in-law’s iconic ’90s style.
Her bob cut sits just above her shoulders, with layers that beautifully frame her face. The front pieces hit right at her chin, which creates such a playful contrast with the slightly longer layers that graze her collarbone. Nicola kept her signature dark hair color, adding some edge to the overall look, while the subtle layering adds movement and texture.
The simplicity of this cut makes it accessible to style every day, yet polished enough for special occasions. A modern update of Victoria Beckham’s angular early 2000s bob that brings the edginess with timeless elegance. Of course, fans were quick to notice the similarity, commenting, “Posh Spice vibes,” and “Yesssssssss, bob szn.” And, quite frankly, they’re not wrong – this layered bob does feel like the perfect refresh of one of the most iconic haircuts of the past couple of decades. It’s obvious Nicola isn’t just taking a trend; she’s taking a page out of fashion history in the best possible way.
And while Nicola’s new bob is turning heads, this isn’t the first time she has played with style. In the years since, she has gone from long, flowing waves in tones of blonde to sleek dark chocolate ponytails, refreshing her style for years in succession. But arguably, this latest chop is the most exciting. With Nicola’s history of pairing modern trends with a little bit of vintage flair, it is no surprise that she nails this look.
With Nicola’s AI-generated hairstyle, we put a fun twist on her love of sleek cuts. We conceptualized her in a chin-length platinum blonde rounded bob featuring soft layers with a slight side part. The platinum tone brightens up the features, brings out the natural glow in her complexion, and offers a complementary contrast to her usual darker locks.
The cut features soft, face-framing layers that provide movement so that it doesn’t feel too structured. The side part creates a very subtle side bangs effect that balances out her forehead. The texture in the bob really enhances her bone structure, drawing attention to her cheekbones and jawline in the most flattering way.
This bob feels like the perfect marriage of minimalism and high fashion and is modern and elegant, just like Nicola’s signature aesthetic. We could so easily see her wear this look and would absolutely love to see her try it, as it’s a hairstyle she has not been seen with before. We already know that platinum blonde suits her — she’s been wearing it for a big chunk of time before going back to the brunette territory.
The bob is completely owning fall 2024, and Nicola Peltz Beckham’s chic chop is at the forefront. If Nicola’s transformation has inspired you, now may be the time to book that salon appointment and try out for yourself a sleek, stylish bob. And with our free AI hairstyle generating feature, you can try on cuts and colors before making the leap — so why not give it a shot?
