Hours before taking flight on the Victoria’s Secret runway, Bella Hadid proved her fashion versatility once again—this time, channeling her inner cowgirl on the streets of New York.

Stepping out ahead of last night’s fashion spectacle, the supermodel traded in angel wings for a dose of Western flair. Her look centered around a pair of Dolce & Gabbana fringed-leather trousers that could’ve been plucked straight from a rodeo dream. The pants—crafted with scalloped fringe trailing down each leg, intricate floral embroidery, and beaded accents—captured the rich nostalgia of the brand’s Spring/Summer 2023 collection, a collaboration famously styled with input from Kim Kardashian.
Fashion historians will recognize the silhouette: those low-rise, yoke-waist lines and built-in belt details trace back to the label’s Spring/Summer 2001 archives. Hadid’s revival of the design only underscored how early-2000s sensuality continues to find its footing in modern-day luxury.
The model anchored her equestrian-inspired look with tonal brown pieces—a sleeveless turtleneck and suede, square-toe boots—while letting her golden-blonde blowout and crimson nails add a high-glam polish. The result? A perfectly measured mix of grit and gloss, proof that Hadid can turn any sidewalk into a style story.
And then, just hours later, she swapped the leather and fringe for feathers and satin, gliding down the Victoria’s Secret runway in two showstopping looks—a fiery red lingerie set and a silver fringe ensemble that shimmered under the spotlight. From downtown cowgirl to celestial siren, Bella reminded us why she remains fashion’s ultimate shapeshifter.
