You can always count on Jeremy Scott to shake things up at the oft-serious Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. On Wednesday, Feb. 18, Gigi Hadid was one of the few lucky models to present his bold presentation — and as always, there was no shortage of bright neon colors and equally loud prints.
For one look, the Sports Illustrated model, 19, trounced the runway in a pink patent leather cloak that was splashed with baby blue polka dots. The quirky ensemble was accessorized with turquoise tights and white baby doll shoes. If the outfit wasn’t out-there enough, Hadid’s beauty look topped it — as she strutted in black wig with neon green streaks and hot pink eye makeup.
Things got even crazier with Hadid’s second look: a satin long-sleeve minidress covered in cartoon bears, stars, and plaid prints, that also featured a sexy keyhole design. The daughter of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Yolanda Foster kept kept the same tights and flat shoes on for the second go-round.
The Maybelline New York brand ambassador has shared her fashion week journey online, and spoke about her rise in the age of social media. “It’s crazy! I’ve always said that I feel lucky to live in the ear of social media and be a working model in this time,” she told Style.com.
“Back in the day, models were just another face. But social media has given people a voice and not just another face. Hadid added, “Not only can you show the world your personality and stuff like that, but you can be a brand ambassador easily. You can connect with people much easier because you have a voice.”
