Gigi Hadid

We’ve been swooning over Gigi Hadid since we first caught sight of her fresh-faced, dewy glow. Somehow she’s managed to keep her girl-next-door charm, while simultaneously establishing herself as an icon. For beauty inspiration that is California cool meets NY Fashion Week, Gigi is your girl.
