Bella Hadid, as one of the world’s most sought-after models, has graced countless runways and magazine covers. But in recent months, Bella has proven she’s more than just a pretty face by stepping into the fragrance business with the launch of her brand, ‘Ôrəbella.
This week, she took to social media to unveil the latest addition to her collection, a scent called NIGHTCAP, with the kind of fanfare only Bella could pull off. And to celebrate, she threw a party last night.
For the occasion, Bella donned a jaw-dropping Christian Dior dress from John Galliano’s Spring 2003 collection. This 1920s-inspired gown, with its dramatic plunge that reached down to her navel, was a showstopper in every sense of the word. Some might find the plunge a bit daring, even shocking, but for those of us who have followed Bella’s career, it’s just another example of her fearless approach to fashion.
What’s more interesting, however, is the way she continues to embrace vintage glamour—a trend she has championed with an effortless blend of modern edge.
The ruching and twist detail on the gown, strategically placed below the navel, added another layer of intrigue to the look. While some might be fixated on the daring plunge, it’s these subtle design elements that truly make the dress stand out. Galliano’s designs from this era were all about drama and sensuality, and Bella embodied that spirit perfectly. It’s not just about wearing a vintage piece; it’s about understanding its history, its context, and how to make it relevant today. Bella continues to do this with aplomb.
Her styling choices only added to the overall effect. With her hair swept up into a chic updo, she evoked the elegance of a bygone era, yet with a contemporary twist. The Marina Moscone necklace she wore was the perfect accessory, striking just the right balance between bold and understated. And let’s not overlook her pink embellished sandals, which added a playful pop of sparkle that tied the entire look together.
What makes Bella’s style so compelling is her ability to mix eras, to blend the old with the new in a way that feels fresh yet timeless. In a world where fashion is often about chasing the next big thing, Bella’s appreciation for vintage pieces is refreshing. It shows that true style isn’t about wearing the latest trends, but about understanding fashion as a form of expression—a way to tell a story.
By choosing to wear a piece of fashion history, she reminded us that while trends may come and go, true glamour is eternal. And in that stunning Dior gown, Bella Hadid proved once again that she’s a master of it.
