\u201cThe side part is back,\u201d hairstylist Justine Marjan<\/a> tells me as she adds clip in extensions to a model\u2019s hair in the cramped backstage area of a 9th floor studio in Hudson Yards. Marjan was talking about the vintage Veronica Lake-inspired style she was creating for Christian Cowan\u2019s Fall\/Winter 2026 show, but her declaration is true. Over the course of New York Fashion Week<\/a>, I\u2019ve noticed more and more of the street style crowd<\/a> have been wearing the look, which Gen Z has deemed as \u201cdated.\u201d However, a side part is anything but, and hairstyles<\/a> I\u2019ve seen in the front rows and on the streets between shows are proof. <\/p>\n

Of course, the city\u2019s best dressed aren\u2019t just going to part their hair to the side, but demonstrate how the shift completely transforms their existing haircut and acts a total vibe shift for any style. Think slicked-back bobs, loose waves, sleek updos, and more. So if you\u2019ve been in a rut but don\u2019t want to lose a ton of length or undergo a color transformation, why not take a cue from NYFW\u2019s street style stars and move your part over to the side? <\/p>\n

Get inspired with the following side-part hairstyles seen outside of the F\/W \u201826 shows. <\/p>\n

Long & Lifted <\/h2>\n

A traditional side part instantly adds a little extra volume at the roots \u2014 no teasing or backcombing necessary. <\/p>\n
