Though I’m sure some of you will disagree, I don’t think I will ever tire of seeing Bella Hadid‘s face everywhere I turn. (Come at me, I dare you.)
This is probably a good thing, because the girl is literally everywhere: She’s the current face of Nars Cosmetics, DKNY, Tag Heuer, Max Mara, Giuseppe Zanotti and Bulgari, meaning that I pass billboards emblazoned with her likeness several times a day as I walk around New York. (I’m also willing to bet serious cash that, as the latest #WangSquad inductee, she’ll be included in Alexander Wang’s Fall 2017 ads, too.) But that’s not all! She is among the newest Nike ambassadors — she stars in the campaign for the recently relaunched Cortez sneakers — and did her older sister Gigi Hadid a solid by posing alongside Zayn to promote his Versus capsule collection. Somehow, the 20-year-old also has time to design her own range for Chrome Hearts, a California-based label founded by her best friend Jesse Jo Stark’s family, that she’s naturally the face of as well. I consider myself to be quite the Bella Hadid aficionado, but I am sure I’m forgetting a thing or five here.
While her work with brands is impressive to say the least, let’s not forget her innumerable editorial credits. She’s fronted every glossy from CR Fashion Book to Teen Vogue to Porter this year, and the hits just keep coming. The all-important September issues are steadily rolling out, and Hadid is making a clean sweep with six under her belt so far — including three international editions of Vogue. Harper’s Bazaar China, Elle Russia, Vogue China, Elle China and Vogue Spain all chose the model for their biggest issues of the year; in September 2016, Hadid made an impressive showing as well, with covers for Vogue Paris, Vogue Japan and Vogue Italia.
It’s clear that Hadid has but one high fashion achievement left to unlock, and that’s the cover of the almighty American Vogue. And by the looks of it, the wait shouldn’t be too long now.
See all of Bella Hadid’s September 2017 covers in the gallery below, and we’ll continue to update as more are released.
