This summer, accessories have become the ultimate styling hack for elevating simple outfits. From pinning brooches on tank tops to tying silk scarves and bandanas around the head and sporting oversized sunglasses like Celine‘s viral pair, fashion insiders are finding creative ways to add visual interest. The newest small but mighty item to join this lineup is the zigzag headband.
Remember the ’90s accessory with a serrated, teeth-like comb design that pulled hair back and created a neat, textured pattern? Well, it has returned, and Hailey Bieber is cosigning the look. She was first spotted wearing it in Miu Miu‘s F/W 26 campaign, following the brand’s runway show where zigzag headbands were everywhere. Instead of the traditionally plastic or acetate, Miu Miu reimagined the accessory with metal, allowing it to transition into a luxury fashion accessory and be elevated enough to be styled with leather jackets, minidresses, fur-lined coats, and sheer tops.
Beyond her appearance in the Miu Miu campaign, Bieber has frequently incorporated the headband into her personal street style. She first paired it with a black tank top and jeans at the 2026 World Cup finals, and later featured it across multiple Instagram photos styled alongside everything from activewear to tailored trousers.
