Gigi Hadid Gives the Mom Jean a Supermodel Makeover

Gigi Hadid sure knows how to keep things interesting. Just a day after putting a millennial spin on Barbie style in a pink leather outfit, this afternoon she gave a supermodel twist to the humble mom jean.


Hadid has taken to the throwback denim trend before to be sure, but usually with a tapered leg. While today’s Re/Done cropped flares had a familiar vintage rise, the new, wider hem felt infinitely more fashion-forward, and hit at the right place to show off black suede boots with a red stripe. The pop of color further coordinated with her cross-body Stalvey bag, whose reptilian texture added an unexpected layer of luxury to off-duty denim. Hadid has made the cropped T-shirt part of her uniform, but she switched it up today with another one of her signature sunglass statements—this time, a retro, ovoid pair by Raen.
