13 Of Gwyneth Paltrow’s Most Unforgettable ’90s Hairstyles

The ’90s was a heady time for Gwyneth Paltrow. Not only did she grace the cover of British Vogue for the first time in 1998, aged just 25, it was also the decade in which she won an Oscar for Shakespeare in Love, appeared in classic films such as The Talented Mr Ripley, Emma and Great Expectations, and generally became an iconic cultural and style touchpoint.

As Gwyneth returns to British Vogue’s cover for the November 2025 issue, we’ve compiled a flavour of her most major hair moments from the decade. From dead straight and centre-parted (worn with lashings of black eyeliner), to Y2K-ready half-up, half-down styles and the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment she was a brunette, consider this your hair recap of a star who helped to define the decade.
