Gigi Hadid—model, vintage hawker, knitwear maven. Of course she’s cultivated a model off-duty style that sees her through to any event and weather scenario. Hadid loves the preppy aesthetic and smart layering, and her latest look showcases one simple styling trick to see us through the April showers.
Stepping out yesterday (April 2) in New York City after time spent at her partner Bradley Cooper’s apartment, Hadid was spotted wearing a long wool gray coat. Underneath, a pair of pale yellow trousers and more acid-toned yellow socks, as well as her go-to penny loafers. Over her coat, she slung a checked brown and yellow shirt like a scarf.

The shirt-as-scarf is a simple transeasonal styling hack the Guest in Residence founder and recent Vogue cover star loves to utilize, especially in in-between weather moments. Feeling the chill? Bring the shirt around your shoulders while adding extra color and dimension to your look—cold weather fits don’t have to be boring. Caught in a downpour? Bring the shirt around your head a la pal Hailey Bieber’s babushka scarf inclinations. Sun peeking out? Ditch the coat and use the shirt as a light layering piece. Hadid makes enough light cashmere knits in a variety of colors with Guest in Residence to add some prep to your springtime step.
Whatever the weather, Hadid is the ultimate pro with outerwear—Jennifer Lawrence, of course, is one of few who can sartorially go toe-to-toe. In Paris, she was all about the Grease Lightnin’-esque leather bombers, leaning into the more androgynous elements of her stylistic codes too. Back in November, Hadid became the next celebrity to ensconce themselves in the bathrobe-as-coat trend at the opening of a Guest in Residence pop-up in Seoul.
Gigi Hadid, you will always be chic—and weather appropriate.
