Not only has Mena Suvari been busy filming the movie Garden of Eden — for which she shaved her head — but the actress has also been designing a scarf line. “I’ve always been into fashion and I wanted to design something to give to charity,” Mena told PEOPLE at the unveiling of her ECHO scarf line at Bloomingdales in Manhattan. Having worked with the National Resources Defense Council before, Mena knew she wanted to design something to do with nature to help the group. “When I was working in Vancouver the cherry trees bloomed, and I sent my photos and designs in from there,” says the actress of the inspiration behind her scarf line. And when PEOPLE caught up with the actress admiring someone else’s designs at the Y-3 show, The American Beauty actress told PEOPLE that chopping off her shoulder length locks “wasn’t scary.” In fact, the actress says she still feels just as sexy. “I’ve actually gotten a ton of compliments on it.” Check at Mena’s scarf lines at a Bloomingdales near you and see the buzz cut beauty on the big screen in 2008.
