Holmes showed off her newbangsat a book launch on October 23.

She wore an olive-green, long, flowy dress with her hair cascading to her waist.

Her hairstyling was rather simple, styled into glossy, straight sheets of brown hair.

Her lightly curled bangs ended just above her eyebrows, so were sure they’re about brow-length without styling.

Holmes’s fringe was just as full and blunt as the signature bangs Zooey Deschanel is never seen without.

We’re not sure what spurred the haircut.
