The Complete Transformation Of Sosie Bacon

Growing up with two famous parents is a unique experience, especially when your mom and dad are actors Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick. This is true of their daughter Sosie Bacon who has proven to be more than a stereotypical "nepo baby" — though she does have a natural personal style that matches her Hollywood bloodline. Sosie has achieved her own success in the acting world by starring in acclaimed dramas like "Mare of Easttown" and horror franchise "Smile." She embodies the same professionalism and likability as her famous family, but chooses to spend most of her time out of the public eye. Sosie stays tight lipped about her private life and seems to enjoy living a reserved lifestyle. But she's shown her fun-loving side on social media, making it clear how well adjusted she is.

Sosie first acted in 2005 when her father cast her in his directorial debut "Loverboy." In 2009, Sosie would appear on her mother's hit show "The Closer," expanding her experience in the acting field. But her parents did not push her into the family business. Eventually, she decided on her own to pursue acting and has transformed into an impressive star of the screen. No longer just the daughter of a famous couple, it's easy to see how Sosie and her fashion choices have evolved over the years, from glamorous red-carpet gowns to boho-inspired maxis. 

1992-2013: Sosie Bacon occasionally matched hairstyles with her famous parents

Even though Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick are a well-known Hollywood golden couple, Sosie Bacon was born and raised on a farm in Connecticut. She grew up on the East Coast away from where her parents had serious star power, splitting her time between New York City and the family's rural farm. (To this day, Sosie still visits the farm frequently, even posting videos with her parents and their animals on TikTok). As a child, Sosie's parents dressed her in florals until she was old enough to favor popular Y2K fashions like crimped hair and graphic tees (which she often posts throwback photos on Instagram of her younger self wearing). She was born with blond hair that was often curly but became a brunette at a young age. It seems that her humble upbringing has inspired her current low-key lifestyle, but she has taken a few style cues from her parents over the years.

By the time she was a teenager, Sosie's famous parents did eventually bring her into the fold of their success. She would occasionally attend red carpets with them, like for the premiere of her father's movie "Beauty Shop" in 2005. A chestnut-brown-haired Sosie sported a 2000s-heavy hairstyle: curly hair with side-swept straight bangs. In fact, her parents were also rocking edgy side bangs, which is one of the best bang styles for a round face. A family that styles their hair together stays together! 

2014: Sosie Bacon looks glamorous and grown up as Miss Golden Globes

Sosie Bacon's real Hollywood homecoming happened in 2014 when she was named Miss Golden Globes. The nepo-baby tradition requires children of famous actors to hand out the trophies during the annual Golden Globes award ceremony. Up until this point, Sosie would only attend red carpets in support of her parents, Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick, and was often overshadowed by their stardom. This was the first red carpet where all eyes would be on Sosie, and she handled the task with a winning smile and a tasteful floor-length dress.

Sosie stunned in a pale-nude-colored gown that fit her like a glove. The dress included sheer floral detailing on the neckline and bodice. She paired the gown with a thin bracelet and a sparkly mini clutch purse. As for her makeup, Sosie kept it minimal with a bright, natural look on her glowing skin. Her long, wavy locks were clearly inherited from her famously curly haired mother and really showed off the family resemblance. Sosie's brown tresses were highlighted with blond ombré at the tips and draped beautifully over her shoulders.

Sosie's first attempt to make her own name at a major Hollywood event was a success. The future actor walked the carpet with grace and poise like a seasoned pro, keeping her far from the worst Golden Globes looks of all time. It's no surprise that this was just the beginning of her many red-carpet appearances where Sosie could show off her fashion sense with independence.

2015-2021: Sosie Bacon becomes an actor and plays around with different styles

As a young adult, Sosie Bacon decided to follow in her parents' footsteps and pursue acting as a career. By 2015, she had booked her first recurring role in the MTV series "Scream," an adaptation of the horror film franchise. She began to show up at more and more public appearances but started out being fairly timid with her style, wearing casual outfits like a chic top with classic black slacks or above-the-knee dresses that felt youthful. If Bacon chose a more tailored outfit, she would mix it up by wearing chic high heels. But as her filmography started to grow, eventually she started to dress with more confidence and opt for classic solid colors in her formal wear, which can help you look older. Her style set her apart from her famous family and helped establish Bacon as her own person in the acting world.

Bacon kept her hair wavy, but did play with varying lengths and went back and forth between blond highlights and all-over brunette. She would dress softer in typical girly fashions for the bigger red-carpet events, opting for lighter shades and more flowing silhouettes in a typical A-line style. She kept her accessories to a minimum by often styling her wardrobe with only earrings. This made Bacon's fashion sense appear minimalist, but still classic without overpowering her natural beauty.  

2022-Present: Enter scream queen Sosie Bacon

Sosie Bacon took on her biggest acting role to date when she starred in the 2022 horror movie "Smile." She impressed the masses as the leading lady and appeared to incorporate her scary-movie experience into her everyday style. First, she played with edgy asymmetrical lines on the red carpet, and opted for high necks paired with long and mini hemlines. She also added quite a few small charcoal-colored tattoos to her arms and favored sleeveless ensembles to show them off.

This is around the time she started dating her boyfriend Scoot McNairy and the two of them would attend events as a pair. Their bond was clear as the couple often chose to dress in the same color scheme, even sometimes with the same dark-brown hair color. Bacon has kept her hair at shoulder length, first maintaining her waves but eventually sporting a sleek bob cut. Currently, she tends to favor boho-style maxi dresses that look comfortable and breathable while highlighting her slim figure. She appears to have left behind layered looks and now loves floor length gowns that make her look taller. Now in her 30s, it's clear that Sosie Bacon has confidence in her style choices and can handle any red carpet with maturity and taste.
