Fashion month has officially traversed from NYC to London and the street style scene is already abuzz. Yes, the fashions are plenty eventful, but it seems Londoners are really leaning into hair accessories this season. In fact, from headbands to scrunchies, everything is seemingly being oversized.

You heard that right. Big, fat, larger-than-life hair accessories are absolutely everywhere, signaling a very dramatic fall season indeed. First there was the more obvious pieces, like bows that were rampant. Some guests attached them to ponytails, while some displayed them large and in charge at the hairline.

Some more nostalgic accessory moments came in the form of claw clips and scrunchies. The ‘90s essentials were displayed prominently outside of shows. The former were seen in tortoiseshell, fuzzy, and gold wired finishes, making them a full blown ubiquitous staple among London girls. The latter, scrunchies, is also coming in hot, as large fluffy hair ties were seen securing the hair styles of, well, just about everyone.

Ahead, see the giant accessories that were truly bringing the drama on the streets of London.
