Bella Hadid showcased her signature street style at the Virgil Abloh tribute event held at Architecture in West Hollywood in March 2026. Renowned for her ability to blend vintage aesthetics with contemporary fashion, the supermodel’s outfit revolved around a striking archival piece—a unique leather jacket from Alaïa.
The highlight of her ensemble was the vintage 1987 Alaïa leather jacket, which exemplified the brand’s renowned sculptural tailoring. In contrast to the loose-fit leather jackets trending among celebrities, this piece was tailored to fit snugly. Its button-down front tapered at the waist and subtly flared at the hips, achieving the precise and architectural silhouette that is a hallmark of Alaïa’s designs.
Rather than overwhelming the look with unnecessary additions, Hadid opted for a casual approach for the rest of her outfit. She combined the jacket with classic straight-leg blue jeans, allowing the structured leather to take center stage. This choice created a relaxed vibe, ensuring the overall appearance remained effortlessly chic instead of overly refined.
Beneath the jacket, she wore a simple white long-sleeve shirt, with the cuffs subtly extending past the sleeves of the leather piece. This understated detail not only lightens the darker tones overall but also provides a touch of softness to the aesthetic.
Her choice of accessories was just as thoughtfully curated. Hadid carried a structured black handbag by Loewe from the Spring 2026 collection, which echoed the jacket’s sharp lines and accentuated the outfit’s architectural vibe. Additionally, she adorned herself with a delicate pavé diamond pinky ring from Shay Jewelry, adding a hint of sparkle that complemented rather than distracted from her ensemble.
For her footwear, she opted for bold leopard-print peep-toe heels, introducing an element of surprise that added character to the outfit. The patterned shoes provided an edgy counterbalance to the sleek leather jacket and straightforward denim.
To complete her look, Hadid accessorized with narrow black sunglasses and styled her hair in loose, textured waves, infusing the entire outfit with a cool, slightly retro flair.
