Gigi Hadid, by profession, is a chameleon. Whether she’s walking a runway or starring in a global fashion campaign, she’s always ready to step into character and help bring a designer’s vision to life. But while her job is to be a blank canvas, Hadid’s off-duty style is bold, bright, and totally singular.
While we can always count on her to wear something colorful, classic model style serves as the base of Hadid’s wardrobe. White tees and jeans are often the jumping-off point, elevated with stacks of charm necklaces or brightly hued sweaters. (It certainly helps that her cashmere brand, Guest in Residence, is at her disposal, there to liven up any look.)
Over her many years in the public eye, Hadid’s fashion sense has stayed largely consistent: eclectic and fun-loving—a mix of supermodel and California kid.
In Elements of Style, we’re distilling a celebrity’s fashion sense into its most basic components. Here, we break down the five key pieces in Gigi Hadid’s closet.
Sumptuous Knits
It comes as no surprise that a woman with a cashmere line wears a lot of knitwear. Whether she’s in a trendy robe coat or a tried-and-true pullover, Hadid’s wide-reaching knitwear collection infuses plenty of color into her wardrobe.
What: Guest in Residence (duh), Erika Maish x Copycats
Where: Out and about in New York, a Guest in Residence pop-up in Seoul, Los Angeles store opening
Wear it with: A bucket hat, a fuzzy miniskirt, loafers, Uggs
Leather Jackets
An eternal closet staple, Hadid has a leather jacket for every occasion. Blazers, bikers, bombers—you name it, she’s got it.
What: Acne Studios, Holzweiler, Worn Vintage
Where: A romantic London stroll, Paris Fashion Week, Brooklyn
Wear it with: Cashmere pants, Taylor Swift merch, slip-on Uggs, a white T-shirt
Statement-Making Headwear
As any good model knows, sun protection is key. While Hadid is fond of trucker caps (from her Disneyland Paris hat to her Rebalance), she’s also been known to venture into the bold. See: the fuzzy, canary yellow bucket hat she paired with a matching cozy jacket.
What: Rebalance, Tag Heuer x Kith, a Yankees cap
Where: An ice cream run, Bradley Cooper’s Philly cheesesteak truck, a fuzzy coat
Wear it with: A floral Bode dress, a sweater set, a denim jacket, a Philly cheesesteak, checkerboard Vans
Tiny Bags
Gigi Hadid is firmly Team Tiny Bag. Between her quiet luxury Loro Piana pouch, her Miu Miu Arcadie, and her campy Yayoi Kusama Louis Vuitton, she has a little purse for every occasion. She must have her packing routine down to a science.
What: Miu Miu, Loro Piana, Louis Vuitton, Moschino
Where: The Vogue Vintage market, breakfast with Bradley Cooper, Paris Fashion Week
Wear it with: Statement jeans, Wales Bonner x Adidas, a vintage blouse
Piles of Jewelry
When it comes to jewelry, more is more in Hadid’s book. While she loves to pile on rings, bracelets, and earrings, there’s no piece she loves more than a charm necklace.
What: Dinosaur Designs, Irene Neuwirth, Jacquie Aiche, Rabanne
Where: The Deadpool Wolverine premiere, Caviar Kaspia, out in New York
Wear it with: Leopard-print loafers, a Miu Miu skirt set, a pinstripe suit
