Emma Watson [2] is back on the scene with a new partnership — and hairstyle. Announced as the face of Prada Beauty's new refillable fragrance, the "Little Women" actor unveiled a fresh pixie cut [3] in a photo from the upcoming campaign. Though reminiscent of her famous short style from 2010, her current pixie is a modernised iteration, with super-short micro bangs [4] and tousled layers. In the campaign image for the perfume, which launches on Aug. 22, Watson also posed with feathery, brushed-up eyebrows and a sultry, siren-eyes [5] look.

Watson made a splash when she first debuted a pixie cut inspired by the likes of Mia Farrow and Audrey Hepburn in 2010, shortly after the Harry Potter [6] film franchise came to a close. "I've wanted to do it since I was about 16, and when Harry Potter ended in June, I just needed a change," the actor said at the time, in an interview with Marie Claire [7]. "It was quite symbolic for me . . . And it's really liberating that I can walk out without thinking about it."

Watson was last seen with her pixie in 2011; over the years, she's worn her brown hair in various lengths between lobs [8] and longer styles and added bangs here and there. In a particularly polarising moment at the Vanity Fair Oscars party in 2018 [9], Watson walked the red carpet with
baby bangs [10] to go with her modern shag. Most recently, she's been spotted with a layered, shoulder-length style.

Watson is also making her directorial debut for Prada Beauty [11], with a short film for the campaign coming soon. "Prada has always gone beyond traditional models and archetypes of conceived beauty and is famous for a femininity that challenges conventions," she said in a statement. "It's a pleasure to create a campaign and represent a fragrance with such a profound philosophical concept and sustainability initiatives in a way that feels genuinely real and relevant."
