Gigi and Bella Hadid posed completely naked for British Vogue. Gigi and Bella Hadid: rival sisters
Gigi Hadid ends 2016 as the British Fashion Council's top model of the year, as announced on December 6 at The Fashion Award 2016 in London. It is curious that in this nomination she was stepped on her heels younger sister Bella. How blood relatives share the fashion Olympus - let's look into our material.
Gigi and Bella Hadid, 2015Every year a “new face” appears in the fashion industry, which receives all the applause at Fashion Weeks, takes the best campaigns into its collection and graces the covers of leading glossy publications. The popularity of such a model, like the life of a butterfly, is fleeting, and very soon her face becomes boring not only to the public, but also to the business itself, which requires new “top” personnel to join its ranks. So, in 2014, Cara Delevingne was supplanted by Kendall Jenner, a year later the laurels of the queen of the catwalk passed to Gigi Hadid, and today her younger sister Bella is hot on her heels.
Yes, in the fashion industry it’s all about acquaintance. Kendall got into fashion under the patronage of her mother Chris, whom almost everyone in show business knows. Proof of this is one of the episodes of the show “Keeping up with the Kardashians”, in which the elder Jenner calls a friend with a request to arrange a screening for the newly minted model. Next, as we know, are shows, covers, a half-naked photo shoot for Calvin Klein, arm-in-arm with Karl Lagerfeld - everything you need to make a name for yourself in modeling. The same scenario applies to Hadid.
Jelena Noura (Gigi is the girl’s “home” name) began her career as a child. At the age of two she starred for advertising company Baby Guess, signing a contract with designer Paul Marciano. Everything was arranged, of course, by the mother, Yolanda Hadid, a former successful model who has repeatedly posed for Vogue. However, the daughter did not use the family’s help for long: after the expiration of the modeling contract, she seriously took up her studies, horse riding and volleyball - in a word, she did everything to take her mind off her parents’ divorce proceedings.
Yolanda divorced the father of her three children, billionaire Mohamed Hadid, in 2000, and remarried only 11 years later. music producer David Foster. The 14-time Grammy Award winner took the Hadid girls to all the Red Carpets, and the once again shining spotlight forced Gigi to return to the world of fashion. At the age of 17, she moved from Malibu to New York and signed a contract with the IMG agency, and a year later she posed with the same Marciano from Guess for the Italian version of Vanity Fair. “Once and forever a “Guess girl” - 15 years later I’m back in business!” Gigi wrote on her Instagram account at the time.
Jelena Noura became “her own” in the industry a little later: in 2014, Carine Roitfeld photographed the aspiring model for the cover of a fashion book, and then drew the attention of Tom Ford to her. The designer liked Hadid’s “baby face” so much that he headlined three advertising campaigns with it: the Velvet Orchid fragrance, a clothing line and an eyewear line. The “Gigi phenomenon” turned out to be so strong that within a couple of weeks she posed for the Pirelli calendar, which many models have been striving to shoot for for years.
A candid photo shoot in a latex suit immediately raised Hadid’s career to the level where girls are photographed for Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue and walk the catwalk at shows of iconic brands. In just one year, thanks to her long legs and social media, Gigi “made” her friend Kendall Jenner and made the whole world talk about herself. The noise was added to the scandal with “cellulite inappropriate for a model,” actively changing significant other (from Cody Simpson to Joe Jonas and Zayn Malik) and the “Victoria’s Secret” show, in which the girl took part along with her “winged” idols.
Despite the sudden fame and the loud hashtag #hadid, with which Gee signs not only photographs in in social networks, but also her own clothes, she never received the honor of being a regular at couture shows. The dream, unfulfilled due to her “childish” appearance, went to the proud and graceful sister Bella, who literally blew up the recent Haute Couture Week. Having come after Gigi to conquer Manhattan, she literally followed in her footsteps: she signed a contract with the same IMG Models, appeared in Roitfeld’s Fashion Book and Tom Ford, and also found herself a musician boyfriend and became friends with the youngest of the clan Kardashian-Jenner, Kylie.
At first, the second Hadid tried to be like the first in everything, but now, it seems, she is erasing this inappropriate particle of “how.” Anyone will get tired of the eternal comparison with her mother, then with her sister, or even with the actress Jennifer Lawrence (to whom Bella, indeed, is very similar), so the girl, as they say, is jumping over her head in order to finally get out of the shadow of her elders mentors.

They say different things about models Gigi and Bella Hadid, but there is one thing that is pointless to argue with - the sisters, before reaching adulthood, received worldwide recognition in the fashion industry in record time. Recently, the Fashion Awards ceremony, a kind of “Oscar” in the fashion world, took place in London at the Royal Albert Hall. Gigi Hadid was definitely not a stranger at that celebration of life. The model received a statuette from the hands of Donatella Versace for winning the “International Model of the Year” nomination.
A couple of years ago, when Bella Hadid began her modeling career, she had a multi-page portfolio of magazine shoots and advertising campaigns for her older sister behind her, and she herself was called only “Gigi’s little sister.” Two years later, on her twentieth birthday (October 9), the model came up with her own “baggage.” On this moment V work book Bellas: contracts with Nike and Dior, several dozen appearances on the catwalks of New York, Milan and Paris and glossy covers of the most authoritative magazines on the planet.
Now let's return to the topic in the title of the article: which of the sisters is still more successful? It’s hard to believe that the girls, secretly from everyone and most of all from each other, are not keeping an unspoken “medal count.” And if they don’t, we’ll do it for them. So, the five main components of success are filming in glossy films, participation in iconic shows, advertising contracts, a famous boyfriend and a general influence on the landscape modern culture- and the answer to the question “who is cooler?”

But this relationship did not last long: Gigi already met 2016 as the girlfriend of Zayn Malik, the ex-lead singer of the British pop group One Direction. Relationships in real life smoothly flowed onto the screen: the model starred in the musician’s video for the song “Pillow talk.” The icing on the cake is a romantic fashion story shot for Vogue US. The large-scale shoot, for which the magazine’s team went to Naples, was led by Mario Testino, a world-famous photographer.

The younger Hadid's personal life is more stable. The only ones known to the public relationship - romance with Canadian rapper The Weeknd.

No matter how close they are, in the modeling business it's every man for himself. the site compared the achievements of beautiful models and figured out which of them is cooler

The Hadid sisters are the main phenomenon of recent years. With the light hand of his mother, in the past successful model Yolanda Hadid, the girls immediately burst onto the world's catwalks, settled on the covers of top glossy magazines and entered into a myriad of advertising contracts with fashion houses such as Dior, Calvin Klein, Versace, Balmain and others. Finding out which of them is cooler is not easy, but we tried to maintain objectivity.
On the covers
Totally agree Last year each of the sisters graced at least 20 glossy covers. There is no point in counting who has more. However, Gigi has an ace up her sleeve - on the cover of only Vogue in different countries she appeared as many as 12 times, and for the French one the girl appeared half-naked. A weighty argument, you must agree!
Score 1:0 in favor of Gigi
Advertising campaigns 2016
Both sisters have contracts with cosmetic giants such as Dior and Maybelline and advertising campaigns in their portfolios: Gigi has Versace, and Bella has Balmain. But it was the latter who hit the jackpot this year by signing with Calvin Klein. Yes, Gigi is not far behind: her portfolio includes a collaboration with Tommy Hilfiger, where she presents a fall capsule collection. But Bella shows more: she became the face of the line underwear and, in addition, participates topless in “denim” campaigns. Plus 1 point for frankness and scale.
Score 1:1
Podium
The designers did not choose which of the star models would participate in their show, and according to the principle “give two!” proposed to both of them. So you can see both Bella and Gigi in the shows of Versace, Chanel, Dior, Miu Miu and others. But don’t forget that the latter is also one of Victoria’s Secret angels, so we give her the victory in this fight.
Score 2:1 in favor of Gigi
Exits
The eccentric Gigi loves to dress up to the nines, often exposing what would be nice to cover up. Here we are for Bella, who prefers modesty and classic black to her bare bottom. Thus the score is evened out.
Score 2:2
Appearance
The sisters are very similar, but still they are different. Gigi has a baby face type, while Bella has sharper facial features, which makes her look a little older than her older sister. In general, of course, both beauties are equally divided here.
Score 3:3
Style
The girls are also similar in this regard, but Bella prefers more feminine looks, while Gigi prefers youthful and extravagant ones. It seems to us that the street-style looks of the latter are more interesting to watch. Point for unusual taste Gigi is coming.
Score 4:3 in favor of Gigi
Figure
It would seem that there is nothing to compare here! However, here one of the sisters has a clear advantage. Bella's curves look more feminine, which contrasts with her older sister's curves. Apparently, the girl is very actively working on her coveted curves in the gym. Points for diligence and working on yourself!
Score 4:4
There's nothing left to do but lead last argument in favor of one of the sisters, so as not to leave a draw. In 2012, 19-year-old Bella was diagnosed with Lyme disease, an infectious disease caused by a tick bite. The disease is characterized by headaches, joint pain, fever, increased weakness, defeat nervous system and eyes. If the disease is not recognized in the initial stages and treatment is not started in time, it can lead to disability and even death. It’s hard to imagine how Bella manages to work so hard with this diagnosis, but we are happy to give her victory in this difficult battle!
No matter how much journalists try to make sisters Bella and Gigi Hadid look like competitors, the girls are surprisingly friendly both in life and at work. And they even miss each other, traveling to different parts of the world for filming and shows. “It’s great to work with my sister in the same field and be able to support each other,” Bella told American Glamor journalists in the summer of 2016. — It’s even better to work together or at least in one country. Then after work we go somewhere together or spend the night at each other’s houses - this helps get rid of the feeling of loneliness.” In general, there is no competitive spirit in the Hadid family, maybe thanks to the upbringing of their mother Yolanda (who is herself a successful model in the past), maybe because their father Mohammed Hadid is very rich, which means the girls don’t know what it’s like to work for salary and fight for a place in the sun. Or maybe because after two years of super success, the sisters managed to cleverly divide this very place and now do not interfere with each other basking in the glory - we decided to check.
Impressions
To notice that in January Bella Hadid appears on the catwalk more often than her older sister, you don’t even have to squint - while she is busy on advertising shoots, Bella participates in Givenchy Haute Couture and Chanel Haute Couture shows. In 2016, however, the balance of power was in Gigi’s favor: she had 14 shows, Bella had only 12.
Covers
The editors of the gloss are crazy about Bella and Gigi - both girls, in their relatively short careers, have already managed to appear on the covers of many magazines, including Harper's Bazaar and Vogue, which is rated very highly in the modeling world. But even here, the younger one has outpaced the older one: in In 2016, Gigi made 17 covers (which is very good), and Bella made a record 25!
Scandals
To be involved in a loud but not compromising scandal - great luck for a young star. And Bella was just lucky with this: in January she ex-boyfriend started an affair with Instagram star Selena Gomez. The noise rose to the skies, and after Bella friended Selena on social networks, it went even higher. Now everyone feels sorry for Bella, discusses which side their mutual friends will take, and finds out what the two celebrities have in common. Bella, meanwhile, wisely remains silent.
Street style
Both sisters are favorites of paparazzi and street style photographers, but people with cameras still like the smiling Gigi more. But her sister regularly gets into the ratings of the most stylish stars and how to-materials, how to wear the most complex things.
Fashion collaborations
Gigi is currently leading the way in the number of collaborations with fashion brands: she has signed lines Tommy Hilfiger and Stuart Weitzman. But her younger sister is hot on her heels - in December 2016, Bella announced her design debut, a collaboration with the American brand Chrome Hearts.
Advertising campaigns
If you already have the impression that Gigi Hadid, at twenty-one, is already consigned to the dustbin of history, exhale: while her younger sister dabbles in design and poses for street photographers, the girl earns money by appearing in advertising. In January 2017 alone, nine advertising campaigns featuring Gigi were released. By comparison, young Bella made three in the same month.
Bella Hadid unveiled a new Dior advertising campaign at Selfridges department store in London. During the presentation, the model talked to the press about the hardships of modeling life, her relationship with her sister Gigi Hadid, and her non-star hobbies.
Bella began her modeling career in 2014, signing a contract with the IMG Models agency. Invitations to major shows like Dior and Chanel followed a little later. By that time elder sister model Gigi Hadid has already conquered the world's catwalks with might and main. According to Bella, it was Gigi’s success and her knowledge of the underbelly of fashion that helped her in the early days. Bella still believes that her sister is more experienced than her.
She went through everything I'm going through now. If I'm sad, I just call her and she makes me happy again. She's mine best friend, I love her so much.
Recalling the times when she and Gigi were not yet celebrities, Bella says:
When Gigi was 13 years old, she wore bright clothes - she was such a Malibu girl. And I loved dark colors and skin. Now our style has changed. We love sharing things and shoes with each other. Sometimes I come to her house and see my clothes. However, I don’t remember giving it to her at all. She will deny that she simply stole it from me until her death.

Before following in her sister's footsteps, Bella was seriously interested in equestrian sports. She was preparing to make the Olympic team, but was forced to abandon her ambitions after she was crippled by Lyme disease (chronic fatigue and illness caused by a tick bite). As it became known later, the same disease was once diagnosed in Bella’s mother and her younger brother.
My family does everything to make me happy. We recently bought a farm, and I hope that this will be the place where we can relax away from the hustle and bustle. I'm about to get back into horse training and I'm really excited about it.
The wave of fame that swept Bella in 2015-2016 almost knocked her off her feet. Bella admits that her sister Gigi and best friends Hailey Baldwin, as well as Kendall and Kylie Jenner.
They tell me when I'm becoming a bitch. It is important to have people around who know the real you.
