Royal Wedding fever sees Will’s bald spot in fashion
Fashion News: The bald spot, long-time resident of fashion’s style ghetto, is finally enjoying its moment in the sun as Royal Wedding fever sees Prince William inspire the latest worldwide trend.
From Hollywood stars to supermodels, sporting celebrities to TV personalities, these days everyone who’s anyone is rocking ‘the crown’ – fashion slang for a ‘hair exclusion zone’ a.k.a. ‘the funky monk’.
Along with Karl Lagerfeld, Nicole Kidman and Dappy from N-dubz, the Beckhams are just the latest to surf the hair zeitgeist, turning up to a charity ball in L.A last night sporting their ‘baldacious’ new look.
“Prince William is a style icon,” gushed Posh, “just like his father was – and yes, this season, it is all about ‘the crown’. I love it!”
The Prince himself says he is ‘shocked and surprised’ to be considered an international trendsetter. “I expected people might start to copy Kate’s hair,” he tells I-D magazine this month, “but never on God’s sweet earth did I expect people to copy mine.”
