In a spectacular comeback, Gigi and Bella Hadid stole the spotlight at the highly anticipated Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024, held in Brooklyn, NY. The iconic sisters kicked off and concluded the event on Tuesday evening, marking a significant moment for the lingerie brand that returned after a six-year hiatus.
At just 29 years old, Gigi Hadid took center stage as she opened the runway in a stunning silky pink teddy, designed with an alluring plunging neckline. Completing her breathtaking ensemble were silver strappy heels and oversized hoop earrings. As she made her way down the catwalk, Gigi showcased a signature move that she reportedly learned from her close friend Taylor Swift. The look was accentuated by striking pink wings that she elegantly folded away at the end of her walk.
Bella, who is 28, made a bold statement as she closed the show in an eye-catching red ensemble. Rocking a delicate lace bra and matching panties, Bella’s sophisticated look was amplified by an extravagant feather coat in red and black, paired with stylish heels. This moment felt particularly special for Bella, who recently returned to the runway following a two-year break aimed at addressing her mental health and battles with Lyme disease. She made a triumphant return for the first time in two years with a stunning appearance at the Saint Laurent show the previous month.
Both sisters have a rich history with Victoria’s Secret, having walked in the show multiple times since their respective debuts—Gigi in 2015 and Bella a year later. This year’s show was particularly poignant for Gigi, as it was her first after becoming a mother in 2020. She proudly shared her excitement leading up to the event through social media, reminiscing about past shows alongside her sister and model friend Kendall Jenner.
Ahead of the show, Gigi was vocal about her enthusiasm, teasing her followers with an Instagram post highlighting her joy about the upcoming performance. Meanwhile, Bella’s presence marked her fourth time gracing the Victoria’s Secret runway. Although absent from the audience that evening was Gigi’s partner, Bradley Cooper, she mentioned that he was cheering from home, fulfilling his dad duties for their daughter.
The event also featured performances by notable artists such as Cher and K-Pop sensation Lisa, elevating the star-studded atmosphere that celebrated women and their artistry in fashion.
The fashion world is abuzz with excitement as the Hadid sisters once again redefine the runway experience, reaffirming their status as leading figures in the modeling industry. As they take their places among their peers, the future looks bright for both models as they continue to influence and inspire.
