Margot Robbie’s Wuthering Heights Press Tour Hair:
A Masterclass in Modern Romantic Hair
When Margot Robbie enters a press tour era, it becomes more than promotion - it becomes aesthetic direction.
For Wuthering Heights, she traded high-gloss Hollywood uniformity for romance, texture and movement. The hair alone told a story - one that shifted between gothic softness, modern polish and windswept glamour.
Let’s break down the moments that defined the tour - and how to channel them yourself.
The Hair: Romantic, Textured, Intentionally Undone
Throughout the Wuthering Heights press tour, Margot’s beauty direction stayed anchored in softness - but never softness without strength. Texture replaced rigidity. Movement replaced stiffness. Even the sleekest moments felt intentional rather than overworked.
Here’s how each look played its part in the story.

The Modern Crimp
A little rebellious. A little romantic. Entirely redefined.
Margot’s softly crimped moment wasn’t a throwback - it was a reinvention. The texture was brushed through, diffused, almost atmospheric. It added depth and dimension without tipping into retro territory.
What made it work? Restraint. The crimp wasn’t uniform or crunchy - it was layered into the hair to create light-catching movement that photographed beautifully from every angle.
This wasn’t Y2K nostalgia. It was strategic texture - feminine, but not sweet.
Our fave VS styler to recreate this look:
Total Crimp - for controlled texture that can be softened and brushed out for a modern finish.
Brontë Blonde
Soft focus. Literary warmth. Understated luxury.
Margot’s blonde during this era felt intentionally muted - a warmer, more dimensional take on her usual bright tones. “Brontë blonde” is less Malibu, more moody countryside. It feels lived-in, natural and quietly expensive.
The finish isn’t icy or overly glossy. It’s gloss without stiffness. Polish without perfection.
This tone paired beautifully with textured styling, allowing the colour to add depth rather than dominate.
Our fave VS styler to recreate this look:
Curl Secret® Ceramic Auto Curler - perfect for building soft, seamless curls that enhance dimension in lighter tones.
The Soft Gothic Updo
Romantic structure. Effortless from the front. Architectural from the back.
Margot’s updo moments balanced looseness with intention. Face-framing tendrils softened the silhouette, while subtle lift at the crown gave quiet power.
What makes this style modern is what’s left undone. It’s not lacquered into place. It moves. It breathes. It feels like it could survive a dramatic monologue and still look impeccable.
Romantic? Yes. Precious? Never.
Our fave VS styler to recreate this look:
Classic Multi Curls - ideal for creating the soft bend and structure needed before pinning into a relaxed updo.
The Sleek Hair Moment
Precision. Power. Clean lines.
Amid the romance, Margot pivoted into ultra-sleek territory - glass-like straight hair worn with sharp intention. This look stripped everything back and let simplicity lead.
But this wasn’t “just straight hair.” It was deliberate. Polished. Controlled. The smooth surface balanced some of the more dramatic fashion moments and proved that minimalism can still command attention.
The finish? High shine. Zero fluff. A centre or refined side part to frame the face.
Our fave VS styler to recreate this look:
Steam Straight Brilliance - steam technology smooths the cuticle while maintaining hydration, delivering reflective shine without flattening movement.
Undone Textured Waves
Effortless - but elevated.
If one look defined the press tour, it was this: soft, brushed-out waves with natural separation. They weren’t tightly set or overly sculpted. They felt airy. Modern. Slightly windswept.
The magic lies in the looseness. Less rigidity. More movement. Ends that aren’t overly curled but gently bent.
It’s the kind of wave that looks accidental - even though it absolutely isn’t.
Our fave VS styler to recreate this look:
Straight & Curl Brilliance - the curved housing makes it easy to create relaxed bends, then brush through for that cool-girl finish.
Timeless, Windswept Glamour
Cinematic volume. Romantic lift. Modern restraint.
This was Margot in full heroine mode - soft root lift, movement through the mid-lengths and ends that weren’t overly polished. It felt powerful without being theatrical.
The silhouette matters here. There’s presence - but not height for the sake of height. The movement gives it life, like it’s been touched by a breeze rather than a hairspray cloud.
It’s literary heroine meets contemporary red carpet.
Our fave VS styler to recreate this look:
Air Style Brilliance - perfect for building soft volume and natural bounce while maintaining a touchable finish.
