Taraji P. Henson talks her 2 a.m. hair transformation at the Jonathan Simkhai spring show

Taraji P. Henson coordinates her clothes with her new hair color.

The “Hidden Figures” star attended Jonathan Simkhai’s spring 2025 show in a pale salmon coat and slacks that matched her new orange locks.

“I changed my hair the night before the premiere of ‘Fight Night,’” the Golden-Globe-winning actor told Alexa. “It was a steady transition. We started with cutting to a longer bob, then we went to a shorter bob, and then by the time I did Jimmy Fallon we cut it again, and by the premiere we finalized the cut.

“The next time you see me, I’ll be totally bald,” she joked.

Henson loves the accidental vibrant hue. “It’s sort of a fluke. We were trying to go blond, and at about 2 o’clock in the morning when my hair didn’t lift, it kept turning this color. I was like, ‘I guess the universe wants me to be orange.’”

Henson said her “Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist” role as a shrewd business woman presented an interesting challenge. “I play a lot of characters who are the heart and soul and the protector,” she said. “[Vivian Thomas] kept her heart out of it and operated like a man. That’s what I found intriguing playing this character.

‘She wasn’t a mother. She had no interest in having children or being married,” she continued. “When it comes to women, they expect us to have children. There’s a certain standard.

“Then they’re out there calling women who have no kids ‘cat women,’ she said, referring to Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance’s criticism of high-profile Democrats. “It’s rude and it’s demeaning and degrading!”

Henson was seated next to Olympic gymnast Suni Lee, who has attended a number of New York Fashion Week shows this week and admitted to being a serious shopper. “I’m bad!” said the athlete, who has two gold medals, a silver, and three bronze medals across the 2020 and 2024 Games.

There was plenty for to covet at Simkhai, unveiled 1,100 feet above ground at The Edge at Hudson Yards.

Nineties supermodel Amber Valletta opened the show in a beige coat, bandeau top and double-layer skirt. Those simple pieces set the tone for a sophisticated collection juxtaposing textures and shapes.

The designer told Vogue the line was inspired by a flower from his mother’s wedding gown.

A series of intricate evening gowns that looked like vines draped over the body was a highlight, along with long, fringed knit dresses.

Dressed in black and white, Simkhai took a bow with his mother, Orna, resplendent in a black floral appliqué skirt with an immaculate white shirt.

The family coordinates their chic.
