The painfully stylish Bella Hadid is finally back in the streetstyle spotlight. Now, it's all because she's promoting the launch of her beauty brand, Ôrebella, but we’ll take Bella any way we can.
And what an embarrassment of riches! The Bella drought has suddenly become a flood of fabulous looks.
What a drought it was, too, long and painful. Hadid's disappearance from the public sphere lasted most of 2023 and only intermittently eased when she made rare casual appearances in New York or at the down-home Texas ranch where she's been riding horses with new beau Adan Banuelos.
Considering that Bella used to bless us with next-level streetstyle on a near daily basis, this was a hard-fought wait.
Back in February, Hadid began teasing Ôrebella, which she trademarked all the way back in 2022, and the line of better-for-your-skin and environmentally sound fragrances was finally launched on May 1.
And what better way to boost eyeballs than for Bella Hadid herself to be seen demonstrating her still-flawless sense of style?
If this sounds hyperbolic, it may actually be. And, yet, if there was anything more deserving of hyperbole than Bella Hadid's sense of style, I can't think of it.
To start the day on May 1, en route to Drew Barrymore’s TV show, Hadid stepped out in a Ferragamo track jacket buttoned up under her chin, the sleeves pushed up, and capri pants worn with a pair of mules. With her iced coffee and bakery bag in hand (and signature skinny Bella Hadid shades on) she instantly brought us back to the height of Bella streetstyle fashion from back in the day.
Should we all just resign ourselves to cropped pants this season? Bella Hadid says so.

Later, Hadid took advantage of the summery weather in New York City with a vintage Christian Dior dress designed by John Galliano. A strappy, nude dress with a fringe detail on the bottom of the hem, it made a perfect pair with Hadid's matchy-matchy pointy-toed mules.

With relaxed hair and gold jewels, Hadid effortlessly epitomized the dreamy outfit that someone like, well, Bella Hadid would wear in a fragrance commercial while running through fields of vanilla orchids, whispering sweet nothings.
She looks like her perfume probably smells, basically.
And then, because life is good, Hadid hit the road on May 2 with another showstopper.
This clingy white number, tiered and textured and semi-translucent, is classic Hadid. It's girly, it's fashion, it's seasonal, it's trend-savvy, it's the kind of thing that looks easy to wear but is actually quite difficult to make look not just good but great.

But there she goes anyways, the quintessential supermodel.

And then, for dessert, the full Bella Hadid Gucci experience.
Saucy, smart, sharp, soft. All at once and perfectly proportioned from trim blazer to mini-skirt to Gucci-monogrammed platform loafers, with big ol' smarty-pants glasses to top it all off.
Ciao, Bella!
