Cara Delevingne was nearly unrecognizable at Coachella, showcasing a transformation with her flowing brunette waves and stylish curtain bangs.

The 33-year-old model joined the crowd of celebrities on the opening day of the 2026 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, which featured Sabrina Carpenter as the headliner.

In a stark departure from her signature bleached blonde hair, Cara surprised fans with her new look.

Chatting with friends, the actress sported long, wavy brown hair, with curtain bangs held back by her sunglasses.

On her festival debut day, Cara donned a Burberry plaid pleated skirt, a sleek black vest top, and knee-high black leather boots.

Her outfit was completed with a chic leather and gold chain cross-body bag, accompanied by a collection of festival wristbands on her arm.

Cara turned heads as she shared a series of sultry snaps to her Instagram earlier this month.

She showed off her natural beauty as she went makeup-free in a revealing selfie in bed with her adorable cat.

Cara then shared another cheeky snap of her girlfriend Minke naked in the background of a photo of her cat with a ‘smirking face’ emoji covering her decency. 

This was followed by a snap showing her playing the guitar and the piano.

Alongside the snaps, Cara penned: ‘What love is like.’

It comes after Cara put on a cosy display with Minke as they stepped out for the GLAAD Awards earlier this month. 

The model led the stars at this year’s media awards, which took place at the Beverly Hilton Hills in Los Angeles.

The loved up couple couldn’t look happier as they gazed into each other’s eyes before taking their seats for the ceremony.

Cara recently revealed the unique thing she does to lift her spirits when she is ‘having a bad day’.

The star explained that she scrolls through fundraising pages when she would like to improve her mood.

She told Variety that she strolls GoFundMe pages, which are often set up to financially help people during a time of need, when she’s having a ‘s**tty day’.

‘I like seeing an actual dent that you can make to help someone,’ she told the publication.

Cara noted that she has been trying to use Instagram less, but can’t quite bring herself to delete it from her phone.

‘That algorithm is not meant for good things,’ she explained.

‘I haven’t gotten to the point where I’ve deleted Instagram off my phone yet, but I’m constantly working on self-control because I find myself going on there without even realising I am. It’s terrifying.’
