Last Tuesday, Zac Posen tweeted a picture of dark haired beauty Crystal Renn calling her �a blonde bombshell,� and he wasn�t kidding. That evening Renn debuted her newly platinum locks on Posen�s arm along with Coco Rocha at the New Yorkers for Children spring dinner dance. Renn recently told PEOPLE that people find her new look astonishing, �People can�t believe the transformation. I had black hair and now I have white hair. That�s what�s so exciting. I wanted to do something different. I wanted to show up as a different canvas at a shoot. It�s a very extreme look but very beautiful. Though it�s nothing conventional.� It took several lightening sessions to achieve the white hot look and Renn understands that �it�s a challenging look. But what�s wonderful is it�s something that photographs beautifully.� Renn credits her bravery to fashion icons like Tilda Swinton, who inspires her with her creativity, saying: �She experiments and that keeps life fun.�
