Superfemme Gigi Hadid rocked the ‘see me, hear me’ global fashion meter today, stepping out in Miu Miu — yes, friends Miu Miu — in the ‘V156: House of Gigi’ cover story for V Magazine.

Gabriella Karefa-Johnson styles Hadid in midriff-bearing suits; fake fur stoles; ‘50s cinched-waist, impeccable suits worn with a discreet, veiled cloche; bias-cut half slip skirts; leather trenches and bold jewelry. And of course, all those conical bullet bras. Many bullet bras. Enough to end the Russian invasian of Ukraine.

Photographers Luigi & Iango [IG] are in their sensual-elegance element, capitalizing on Gigi’s haute demeanor and statuesque poses. This is old-school fashion drama at its best, and Gigi kills it for Miu Miu, her photographers, the V team and all of us watching. R-E-S-P-E-C-T. / Makeup by Georgi Sandev; hair by Akki Shirakawa

WELCOME TO THE HOUSE OF GIGI!

The only constant in life is change itself. Lately, though, it feels like the world has slammed the metaphorical pedal to the metal, hurling us down an uncharted highway of artificial intelligence, surreal politics, and, of course, fashion cycles so dizzying that miniskirts are “in” one moment, then out the window and gathering dust in a ditch the next. Naturally, we’ve become obsessed with the rearview mirror, romanticizing simpler times.
For V, that means indulging in the mid-century magic of the ‘50s and ‘60s: the era that gave rise to fashion’s first icons, from Lisa Fonssagrives-Penn, Jean Patchett, to Peggy Moffitt, Dovima, Donyale Luna, and Twiggy. via V 156
