Gigi Hadid's Tomboy Winter Style In 4 Outfit Equations
A layering lesson from the cashmere queen of NoHo.
It’s bundling season, which continues to baffle and befuddle even the most experienced cold-weather dressers with the age-old dilemma: How do you stay warm without looking like an unsightly Michelin man? This winter, we’re turning to Gigi Hadid for some support. She’s overly qualified for this as the creative director of her own cashmere brand, Guest in Residence. The knitwear designer knows how to layer it up — even though most of the time, she’s going from a black car to her apartment and back.
Gigi’s style is tomboyish in nature, with an overarching theme of oversized coats and baggy pants, the better for buying in sturdy materials like cashmere and wool to keep your gams warm without sweltering in your office in Uniqlo Heattech tights. We picked out four of her most inspirational ‘fits and broke them down, with four different coat options for optimal swaddling and layering. Keep scrolling to see how we’re shopping them — including some exact matches on sale now.
Earthy & Fuzzy
When in Aspen, dress as the Aspenites do. Even if you don’t have a trip out West planned, take cues from this matchy-matchy outfit and dress in latte colors.
Cashmere Everywhere
Cashmere pants may seem like something reserved for couch potato-ing all weekend, but if worn correctly, they can seamlessly enter your office rotation. Consider Hadid’s Guest in Residence “Everywear” pants that tell you exactly where to wear them. Offset their looseness with a crisp button-down and loafers.
Bold Layers
While it may feel like the Acne Studios/Loewe wool scarves have reached saturation point, there’s still a draw to wearing a bold scarf. Make yours stand out by wearing an equally bright sweater. The key to these four layers is the ever-adjustable way to wear them, based on how sweaty you get waiting for the G train.
Menswear & Activewear
This outfit speaks to my soul. It takes the goodness of a crisp American Gigolo-esque blazer coat and offsets it with hype-bae accessories, perfect for grocery runs and the like (even if you’re not being papped). Shop her exact coat, made by her friend Hailey Bieber, which is available in limited sizes for 30% off.
