Bella Hadid just proved that she’s not just a supermodel—she’s a red carpet showstopper. And last night at the world premiere of FX’s The Beauty in New York City, she didn’t just walk the carpet; she owned it in a jaw-dropping Schiaparelli couture gown that left everyone speechless. But here’s where it gets controversial: as Hadid dips her toes into acting with her biggest on-screen role yet, could this mark the beginning of the end of her reign as a fashion icon? Or is she simply expanding her empire? Let’s dive in.
While Bella Hadid may be slowly transitioning into acting—with previous cameos in Ramy and Yellowstone and now a starring role in Ryan Murphy’s cosmetic horror series The Beauty—her roots as a fashion model remain unshakable. As the founder of Orebella, Hadid has already proven she’s a force beyond the runway, but her appearance at the Museum of Modern Art premiere reminded us all why she’s a style legend. And this is the part most people miss: her Schiaparelli Fall 2025 couture gown wasn’t just a dress—it was a statement.
In a bold tribute to the show’s title, Hadid stunned in a bright red halter-neck dress that perfectly complemented the oversized printed lips on the step-and-repeat backdrop. The sleeveless design featured intricate ribbon detailing that crisscrossed her body in a lattice pattern, blending silk and sheer fabric for a look that was both daring and elegant. The silhouette flowed into a dramatic ruffled train, while a pair of tomato-red pumps peeked out from beneath the skirt, adding a playful pop of color. Chopard diamond rings and stud earrings provided just the right amount of sparkle, while her tight bun and side-swept bangs kept the focus on the ensemble.
But let’s talk about the bigger picture: The Beauty isn’t just another project for Hadid—it’s a potential turning point in her career. Will she become the next big Hollywood actress, or will she always return to her first love, fashion? Here’s the controversial question: Is Hadid’s acting career a genuine passion, or just another platform to showcase her unparalleled style? Either way, if it means more red carpet moments like this, we’re all for it.
