Hadid accessorized with a coin charm necklace, a skinny headband and wraparound frames, while her makeup consisted of coral blush and nude lip liner.
The ‘Ôrebella founder has been known to favor vintage fashions: while promoting her new fragrance line last year, she wore archival pieces Dior and Roberto Cavalli.
“My way into fragrance was being on my farm with our lavender plants, and we have a cute health food store down the street from my house there,” Hadid told WWD of founding ‘Ôrebella. “They have the craziest variety of essential oils, and I’m obsessed with putting things together that you wouldn’t normally smell.”
Hadid works with stylist Molly Dickson, who also counts Lana Del Rey and “Euphoria” star Sydney Sweeney as clients.
In August, Hadid was announced as Chopard’s newest brand ambassador, succeeding Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts.
“I have so much appreciation for Chopard’s craftsmanship and have been an admirer of theirs for many years. I am so thrilled to be joining the Chopard family,” Hadid said in a statement.
After having a major moment in the 2000s and 2010s, baggy, wide-leg styles have mostly replaced skinny jeans as the denim style du jour. However, the body-conscious cut could be making a comeback, with Alix Earle debuting a new skinny silhouette as part of her collaboration with Frame.
“The Alix,” launching on Thursday, is available in a classic blue wash ($128) and a coated black style ($148).

“The inspiration came from taking something that was no longer ‘in style’ and giving it an upgrade that would reintroduce it in a fresh, new way,” Earle told WWD of what sparked the collaboration. “The main issue I’ve had with the style in the past was comfort — they were either too tight, too high-waisted or too low-waisted, so I really aimed to incorporate all that into making my version of a perfect skinny jean.”
