There are few things more transformative than a fresh haircut—and Bella Hadid proved exactly that while celebrating her latest collaboration with Miss Sixty during Milan Fashion Week.
Arriving at the brand’s Milan event, Hadid debuted soft, wispy retro fringe cut into her long blonde hair, adding a distinctly ’90s edge to an already nostalgia-driven look. The new bangs framed her face with effortless cool—an aesthetic that seamlessly matched the capsule collection she designed.
A ’90s Western Revival in Double Denim
Leaning fully into throwback codes, Hadid wore a light-wash denim zip-up jacket from her collection layered over a classic white crewneck tee. The jacket, crafted from soft, faded denim, featured star motifs that nodded to Western iconography while maintaining the sleek minimalism that defines her off-duty wardrobe. A two-way zipper added styling versatility, allowing for a more relaxed or structured silhouette.
She paired the top with coordinating low-rise jeans, cut slim through the thigh before opening into a subtle flare. The jeans were finished with leather star patches and front flap pockets, reinforcing the rodeo-meets-supermodel mood. The wash on both pieces was intentionally distressed for a lived-in, vintage effect—an homage to the archival denim Hadid frequently references in her personal style.
The result was a confident fusion of Miss Sixty’s signature ’90s-meets-’60s aesthetic and Hadid’s own identity, which blends equestrian sensibility with high-fashion polish.
Creative Direction With a Playful Twist
Beyond designing the collection, Hadid also stepped into a creative leadership role. She served as creative director for the campaign video, which featured wigs styled by hairstylist Evanie Frausto and was photographed by Yasmine Diba. The shoot unfolded in a nostalgic ’90s mall setting—complete with diner scenes and coin-operated kiddie rides—amplifying the playful, time-warped spirit of the collaboration.
The Milan launch mirrored that concept with immersive décor, including a full-scale carousel that transported guests straight into Hadid’s denim fantasy.
With a fresh fringe and a sharply defined point of view, Hadid’s Milan appearance made one thing clear: this wasn’t just another celebrity capsule. It was a tightly executed aesthetic statement—equal parts vintage Americana and contemporary runway authority.
