Pixie cuts: Not just for Gen Y's after all

Yesterday costume designer, interiors maven and all around excellent person Catherin Martin stepped out at the Chanel Haute Couture show with her husband Baz Luhrmann.

In addition to her power lipstick, she showed off a brand new pixie cut. Just a reminder, Martin used to have hair that hung well below her shoulders, but we think this super short style suits her really well.

The pale, pale colour keeps her crop from looking tired, and we especially love the silvery lowlights in her hair.

There you have it. Conclusive proof that pixie cuts aren't just for Gen Y's.

And just for fun here are all the other super-glam women (and Jared Leto) who were fellow guests of Chanel:

Have you ever worn you hair as short as Catherine's is? Did you like it?
