When you have a face like Cindy Crawford's, you can pretty much pull off anything. The nineties supermodel is rarely afraid to experiment with a new aesthetic and decided to toy with her everyday hairstyle on Wednesday.

The mother-of-two, who raises children Kaia and Presley with husband Rande Gerber, styled her brunette locks down loose with a choppy fringe that shaped her career-defining face. She posed for a casual selfie showing off her new hair transformation, revealing online that it was only temporary.

You can pull off anything!," one wrote, while another said: "Always pretty! No matter the hairstyle!" A third noted: "Sometimes you just get bangs and everything’s fine!" and a fourth mentioned: "You are beautiful inside and out no matter what hairstyle you choose."

The star often styles her hair in glossy waves with a caramel tint

Cindy has established herself as one of the leading models of the 20th century. The star became the face of the fashion industry alongside names such as Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista, yet just like her fellow supermodels, she started out modeling for lesser known labels.

In an unearthed photo from 1988, Cindy donned a delicate lace piece as she modeled for Giorgio di Sant'Angelo's Spring 1988 Ready to Wear fashion show. The blossoming supermodel looked ethereal in the micro dress that featured a web of finely crafted nude lace, a floral design, a scoop neck, and thick straps.
