Bianca Censori’s Throwback Modeling Photos Reveal Her Dramatic Hair Transformation Since Kanye ‘Ye’ West

Since marrying Kanye “Ye” West, Bianca Censori has embraced a bold, avant-garde style that often blurs the line between fashion and performance art. Her wardrobe has shifted dramatically to more daring, architectural silhouettes and minimalist, risqué pieces, many of which align with Ye’s futuristic Yeezy-inspired vision. Frequently spotted in monochrome outfits, sheer fabrics, and unconventional cuts, Censori’s current fashion choices suggest a close creative partnership with Ye. Now, we’re looking at how her hair has also dramatically transformed since before her fame.

Bianca Censori’s old modeling photos show her long brunette hair

Bianca Censori has become known for her daring, often headline-making fashion choices that challenge traditional red carpet and street style norms. Since stepping into the spotlight alongside Kanye “Ye” West, she’s been seen in barely-there outfits like a sheer nude bodysuit paired with translucent tights during a stroll through Florence, and a sculptural, skin-tight nylon ensemble in Los Angeles. At Paris Fashion Week, she turned heads in a strapless, sock-like tube dress paired with clear heels. And, of course, her nude Grammy Awards moment resulted in headlines all over the internet.

While Censori’s outfits draw attention, so does her hair. She typically keeps her short cut slicked back, or she’s known to wear wigs. However, photos of her old modeling photos shared by DailyMail.com remind fans of her natural brunette look. The photos show how Censori dressed before Ye — in jeans and a tube top — while also wearing her long, slightly wavy hair flowing down her back.

Fans on Reddit commented on Censori’s hair before her fame.

“Wow, the longer dark hair suited her better,” one fan wrote.

However, another fan countered that they liked her short blonde look. “I actually like her short blond hair,” they wrote. “It’s the clothes I can’t stand, there’s nothing really wow about it, it’s like warehouse chic [sic].”

A psychologist commented on Bianca Censori’s curly pink hair look from 2024

Bianca Censori and Kanye “Ye” West aim to stand out with their looks. In 2024, the couple attended the brand Prototypes’ Spring 2025 collection in Paris. While Censori typically wore her hair short and slicked back, she debuted curly pink hair to go with her nude bodysuit.

“This was a messy pink wig, which signified a desire to stand out,” psychologist Dr. Becky Spelman told The U.S. Sun. “The statement symbolized a fresh start in Bianca’s life. Psychologically, changing hair color to something as striking as pink can reflect a need for self-expression and individuality. This often correlates with non-conformist personality traits.”

The psychologist noted that Censori was likely “carving out” her own identity separate from Ye’s.

“Bianca is still navigating her high-profile relationship with Kanye West,” she added, also noting that Censori’s look to the event didn’t “gel” with Ye’s. “The bold wig only fit his ethos of innovation and attention-grabbing aesthetics,” Dr. Spelman noted.

North West seems to be channeling some of her stepmother’s spirit with her hair and hats

North West is embracing bold self-expression. Her latest hairstyle trend — vibrant blue braids — is turning heads for all the right reasons. Her mother, Kim Kardashian, shared a snapshot on Instagram in June 2025 of North, sitting in a car and flashing her fresh blue locks that match the car’s interior. While North is only 12, she’s carving out her own identity — and possibly taking a few styling cues from Bianca Censori.

Censori has yet to debut blue hair, but there’s no doubt that North sees the woman’s bold style and ever-changing hair. Additionally, Kardashian has admitted in the past that North adores Ye and looks up to him. Because of her close relationship with Ye, it’s more than likely that North also has an affinity for Ye’s wife.

Additionally, fans noticed how North embraced wearing the same hat — a brown oversized fur bomber — as Censori wore while in Dubai in 2023.
