Bella Hadid returns to runway after two-years at Saint Laurent’s Paris Fashion Week

Bella Hadid returns to the runway at Saint Laurent’s Paris Fashion Week show after a two-year hiatus from the catwalk.

Bella Hadid made her highly anticipated return to the runway during Saint Laurent's Paris Fashion Week show on Tuesday, marking her first catwalk appearance in two years. The US-Dutch-Palestinian supermodel, who has been candid about her battle with Lyme disease, took to the runway in a masculine suit designed by Saint Laurent’s creative director, Anthony Vaccarello. The outfit featured prominent shoulders and a matching tie, part of Vaccarello's spring-summer 2025 collection.

According to Reuters, Vaccarello’s collection highlighted ample, masculine suits with models sporting aviator shades and thick glasses, adding a studious element to the look. Bomber jackets brought additional heft, while chunky jewelry and stilettos added a glamorous touch, reminiscent of the personal style of the house’s founder, Yves Saint Laurent. Midway through the show, Vaccarello shifted to more feminine styles, with models wearing flowing skirts in paisley motifs and brocade jackets adorned with floral designs.

The late-night event, held in the open-air courtyard of Saint Laurent’s Left Bank headquarters, drew large crowds who cheered for celebrity arrivals, including Lenny Kravitz, Kate Moss, and Gwyneth Paltrow. The show capped the second day of Paris Fashion Week, which runs through Oct. 1 and will feature major fashion houses such as Hermes, Chanel, Valentino, and Louis Vuitton.
