Sporting major hair and oozing glamour, Hadid is cited by the mag as a “model of the digital age” and “spectacularly connected” thanks not only to her 4 million Instagram followers, but also to her famous family (her mother Yolanda Foster is a former model and cast member of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills“, and her stepfather, award-winning music producer David Foster, was once married to Caitlyn Jenner’s ex-wife, Linda Thompson.). When you think of scent, you don’t think of clothes. “She wants to marry me and have my kids”.
However, her success is not limited to her social media exploits.
In the accompanying feature, 20-year-old Gigi speaks candidly about posing nude.
Like Victoria Beckham, Gigi proved that virtually anything goes when it comes to in-flight fashion as she threw on a pair of stretchy grey fitness leggings that boasted a space-dye print and jazzed them up with a some pointed stiletto heels!
“I have always been aware of the business side of this industry”, she said. “I have to read the news to find out what’s happening in my life”.
“My Pirelli calendar is hanging on the wall of my friend’s frat house, and he doesn’t know anything about fashion”, she explains, referencing her spread with Steven Meisel in which she’s seen clad in latex.
The model has been praised for her rare appeal to both high fashion and commercial gigs. “But I’m not going to force my career onto the people who follow me”.

The complaint asserts that Porter arrived at the building on June 25 looking for Hadid, and told a member of staff: “I’m paramilitary and I saved her life before. I refuse to do 40 Instagram posts about any campaign”.
