Perhaps it’s the Thom Browne gown she wore to the 2024 Met Gala–which took 13,500 hours to construct with 2.8 million beads assiduously embroidered onto its surface–or the fact that sister Bella has now returned to public-facing duties, but Gigi Hadid’s fashion cup seems to have been replenished, striding through New York with all the confidence of someone who has been tried in the court of High Fashion Twitter and emerged victorious.
That is, she appeared on several best-dressed lists post-Met Gala. The model was yesterday afternoon photographed entering the CBS Studios in a Showtime shirt dress from her own brand Guest In Residence and Re/Done jeans with a diminutive Miu Miu Arcadie bag dangling between her fingers. She looked recharged–reawoken, even–a perceived attitude that can perhaps be attributed to the fact she was wearing jewel-encrusted stilettos (not slippers or tasseled loafers), which will emit a Carrie Bradshaw-shaped halo around even the most casual dressers.

Consider this look a dressed-up development on the model off-duty blueprint–featuring straight-legged jeans and shrunken white T-shirts–which Hadid is known to cling to during the summer months, as seen here and here and here. This knitted shirt dress–unbuttoned towards the midriff –has an ounce more ritz than that failsafe formula, but I’d imagine Hadid named it “Showtime” for a reason.
