Gigi Hadid might be one of the fashion industry's most prominent blondes working today, but the model decided to switch things up a bit for her most recent Paris Fashion Week event by forgoing the shade for an edgier look.

The 29-year-old attended the inaugural Le Grand Dîner du Louvre—on the arm of former Moschino director and designer Jeremy Scott—on March 4, in celebration the museum’s Louvre Couture exhibition. For the event, Hadid stepped out in a full glam look that required a hair change—she wore a glittering yellow and silver beaded sequined gown with a sweetheart neckline and a single off the shoulder sleeve.

To complete the ensemble, Hadid swapped her signature blonde locks for a silver bob with ample root shadow, a color that her hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos lovingly calls a "silver tequila." Speaking with Vogue, the hairstylist said, “I gave her some roots for dimension, and made the color look more edgy. For the cut, I wanted to combine classic Marilyn Monroe with a very modern and rebellious touch—with some Linda Evangelista in the ’90s.”

As for the dress, Scott took to Instagram and revealed that the model's gown was crafted from three previous pieces from his personal archives. "Entering the majestic Louvre with my muse and friend @gigihadid for le grand diner du Louvre!" he captioned a video of him and Hadid posing for photos on their way into the event.

Scott continued, "I created this custom gown for Gigi out of 3 beaded gowns I had previously designed that were in my archives with the precision of my darling @laurabasci. Styled by @elizabethsulcer with hair and makeup by @dimitrishair & @georgisandev big love to @olivier_gabet & @cybex_global for a beautiful night."
