At 43, Anne Hathaway Unveils a Dramatic New Look

Anne Hathaway is shaking things up. The actress rocked a pixie cut in the September cover issue of Vogue China.

The 43-year-old was dressed in a white Louis Vuitton blazer with black details and a chunky Bulgari necklace.

Hathaway’s new look comes after a very busy year. She has been booked and busy with press tours for her many projects this year, including Mother Mary, The Odyssey, The End of Oak Street, The Devil Wears Prada 2, and soon Verity.

This is the shortest hair the actress has had in over a decade. Back in 2012, Hathaway shaved her head on camera while playing Fantine in Les Misérables. The role earned her the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. As her hair grew back, she wore a short pixie cut into 2013.

The Brokeback Mountain actress told Glamour in a 2012 interview that she was “shaking like a leaf” when she shaved her head, but soon that fear made her feel like the “coolest girl in the world.” Hathaway added that she noticed, “People are warmer to me.”

“Also, I’m a fairly shy person, and [in the past] on days when I didn’t want to deal with the world, I’d wear a hat and pull my hair around me and hide,” she continued. “I can’t do that now. I have to be me all the time.”

It is unclear if her new chop is actually the work of a wig.
