NEW YORK • The bouffant is back. The hairstyle, known for its round shape, with hair swept off the face and shellacked into place with hair spray, is symbolic of all that is retro.
Think of French actress Catherine Deneuve, the character Betty Draper in TV series Mad Men (2007 to 2015) and multiple United States first ladies: Lady Bird Johnson, Mrs Betty Ford and Mrs Jacqueline Kennedy.
