Gigi Hadid Covers Vogue Arabia's Second Anniversary Issue, Lensed By Peter Lindbergh
Palestinian American supermodel Gigi Hadid celebrates the second anniversary of Vogue Arabia in her first image collaboration with esteemed photographer Peter Lindbergh. Wearing Giambattista Valli Couture and Givenchy Couture, the editorial was photographed in Paris during Fashion Week.
The March 2019 cover is Hadid’s 37th to date, and her second for Vogue Arabia after launching the magazine’s debut in 2017, shot by Inez & Vinoodh. It’s refreshing to see that the Twitter pc police didn’t run Hadid off this anniversary cover after her debut appearance.
“Being Arab has influenced me to be open and loving of all backgrounds, realizing that being more of one thing doesn’t make you less of something else,” she muses proudly, reflecting on the impact her Palestinian heritage has had on her life. Last year, Hadid was photographed celebrating Eid with pop star Zayn Malik, and also marched the streets of New York protesting against US President Donald Trump’s anti-Muslim travel ban in 2017.
Not mentioned in Vogue Arabia, we note that Gigi Hadid is also a UN ambassador in refugee camps in the Muslim world.
