Gigi Hadid made a splash at the September 2021 Met Gala with red hair and a high-leg slit Prada dress. Tonight, the singer went more modern yet just as striking with
her platinum hair styled up. She wore a red corset jumpsuit by Versace and a giant matching cape, a creative take on the night's Gilded Glamour theme.
The appearance comes days after Hadid got attention for the modern pink Prada mini dress and platform heels she wore to the Prince's Trust Gala in the city.
Hadid spoke to InStylein February about her balance between being open about her life publicly and protecting some parts of it for her privacy. “I've always been very trusting, and like a lot of people, I learned the hard way in this industry by being too open in interviews,” she started. “You have to start to calculate your steps, because you went for it with an open heart, and sometimes it doesn't get portrayed that way.”
“So, in part, yes, I have scaled back,” she continued. “But in the moments when you're face-to-face with people, you still have to be open. You're only going to have a human experience if you're fully in the moment. You try not to have those weird voices in your head that come from traumatic experiences.”
She also touched on why kindness has been a guiding principle throughout her career as a model. “Kindness is so important,” she said. “It's another one of those things that my mom always told me—there's always going to be people in the industry who are younger, prettier, up-and-coming. You have to be kinder and more hard-working. Sometimes people will be like, ‘Why did this model come and go? She was so gorgeous.’ But sometimes they just suck to be around. I'm not saying that I'm the prettiest or the best model, but I can say I'm someone who is nice to be around. Maybe that's what's kept me here for so long. People have to know that you're going to be the same person every time they see you. That doesn't mean you can't have bad days, and thank God, we have so many friends in the industry we can turn to and have a breakdown. But at least they know you're going to show up and do your best and be kind. It gets you a long way.”
