Michelle Williams [1] just strolled the 2023 Oscars [2] red carpet with a brand-new look: a "bixie" haircut [3]." The actor was last photographed with a short bob [4] earlier in March, but her sleek bixie takes us all the way back to her Dawson's Creek days.

The popular cut, which is a combination of a bob and a pixie, is "shorter than a bob, longer than a pixie, and with the hair off the neck and midface," April Peele [5], a hairstylist at Salon SCK in New York City, previously told POPSUGAR. The style first started gaining popularity back in 2022, with celebrities like Ciara [6], Florence Pugh [7], and Alexa Demie [8] all trying the look at some point.

While the cut looks good styled any which way — from wavy to textured to straight — Williams opted for subtle and sleek with wispy bangs. The actor paired the look with a white dress, diamond jewelry, and a bold red lip. The star is nominated for best actress for her performance in The Fabelmans. Take a closer look at Williams's bixie cut at the 2023 Oscars ahead.
