You know that feeling when someone walks into a room and just owns it? Like, they don’t even have to try, people just stop and stare? That’s Gigi Hadid. There’s a reason she’s been one of the most in-demand models for over a decade. She’s not just a pretty face; she’s the whole package—brains, beauty, business acumen, and a vibe that makes everything she touches instantly cool.
There’s something about Gigi Hadid. It’s not just the way she glides down a runway with effortless grace or how she transforms even the simplest streetwear into a fashion moment. It’s the way she owns every space she steps into—commanding attention without demanding it. From her early modeling days to launching her own fashion brand, Gigi Hadid has mastered the art of reinvention, proving time and again that she’s more than just a pretty face. Now, she’s stepping into a new spotlight as the global ambassador for Rabanne’s latest fragrance, ‘Million Gold For Her’. And if you thought she couldn’t get any more iconic, think again.
Before she was gracing Vogue covers and closing runway shows, Gigi Hadid was just a California girl with big dreams and a little bit of ‘Baby Guess’ modeling under her belt. Born in Los Angeles on April 23, 1995, to Dutch model Yolanda Hadid and Palestinian real estate tycoon Mohamed Hadid, fashion was practically in her DNA. She got her start at just two years old, modeling for ‘Baby Guess’. But instead of riding the wave of early success, she stepped back from modeling to focus on school—a rare move in an industry that thrives on momentum. When she returned to the scene in 2011, she did so on her own terms, landing a Guess campaign that reintroduced her to the fashion world.
Then in 2013, the year everything changed, she signed with IMG Models, this was the turning point that catapulted her into superstardom. One year later, she made her New York Fashion Week debut, and from there, it was a whirlwind of runway appearances, high-fashion campaigns, and magazine covers. By 2016, she was named International Model of the Year by the British Fashion Council—an achievement that solidified her as a force to be reckoned with. But here’s the thing about Hadid, she’s never been content with just being a model. She’s a trendsetter, a businesswoman, and an all-around creative powerhouse.
Her style? Effortlessly cool. Whether she’s rocking off-duty sweats or head-to-toe couture, she makes it look easy. That ability to blend high fashion with everyday wear is what keeps brands and designers obsessed with her. In 2022, she proved she wasn’t just wearing the clothes, she was making them. She introduced Guest in Residence, her luxury cashmere knitwear brand that took the fashion world by storm. Unlike celebrity fashion ventures, Guest in Residence wasn’t just another label slapped with a famous name. It was thoughtfully designed, stylish, and, most importantly, had Hadid’s signature touch.
But fashion isn’t her only playground. She’s also dipped her toes into television, co-hosting Netflix’s Next in Fashion. As someone who’s lived and breathed the industry for years, she brought real insight to the show, proving she knows her stuff beyond just striking a pose.
Gigi Hadid is in her golden era. Now, she’s stepping into yet another power move, becoming the global ambassador for Rabanne’s new fragrance, ‘Million Gold For Her’. And if there was ever a perfume that matched Gigi Hadid’s aura, this is it, adding another title to her already impressive résumé. If you know anything about Rabanne, you know they don’t do subtle. Their designs are bold, futuristic, and dripping in luxury, and their fragrances follow the same philosophy. ‘Million Gold For Her’ is no exception. It’s the kind of scent that makes a statement before you even walk into a room, rich, vibrant, and unapologetically glamorous.
Gigi Hadid, of course, is the perfect embodiment of that energy. For the campaign, she’s every bit the golden goddess, dressed in a metallic gold two-piece that looks like it was made for her. Her presence alone elevates the perfume’s aura, making it clear that this fragrance isn’t just something you wear it’s something you own. The scent itself is a masterpiece, a blend of rose and white flowers, grounded by mineral musk. It’s floral but not too sweet, powerful but not overwhelming. In an interview, where she descried the luxury scent, Hadid said her golden rule for picking a scent is ‘it should be a little bit feminine and masculine, that’s why I love a ‘Million Gold For Her’, because it has that floral side to it and also mineral musk. It kinda gets my girlie side and my tomboy side going’
Adding to the luxury of the perfume is the bottle ‘A gold ingot with an oversized chain link’, a nod to Rabanne’s signature jewelry aesthetic. The campaign’s magic is its soundtrack—Beyoncé’s Pure/Honey, a song that screams confidence, luxury, and high fashion. The whole thing feels less like an ad and more like an event, one that firmly cements Gigi Hadid as a beauty icon as much as a fashion one.
To celebrate the launch, Gigi Hadid made a show-stopping appearance at Rabanne’s pop-up event in New York City. True to form, she turned heads in a butter-yellow maxi dress layered under a semi-sheer, gold-tinted PVC raincoat. It wasn’t just a look—it was a statement. A subtle, stylish nod to the golden bottle of ‘Million Gold For Her’, proving once again that Hadid doesn’t just wear fashion; she becomes it.
At the event, she spoke about her connection to the fragrance, calling it both powerful and beautiful. It’s a balance she resonates with, not just in scent but in life. She’s someone who knows how to command attention with strength and grace, making this partnership with Rabanne feel less like a campaign and more like a perfect match.
Hadid’s collaboration with Rabanne isn’t just another celebrity fragrance deal. It’s a reflection of where the fashion and beauty industries are heading.
Gone are the days when models were just faces in a campaign. Today, they’re influencers, business owners, and brand collaborators. Gigi Hadid isn’t just lending her face to Rabanne, she’s bringing her personality, style, and global influence into the mix.
This partnership also signals a shift in how beauty brands market their products. The focus is no longer just on looking good, it’s about feeling powerful, bold, and confident. And who better to represent that than a woman who has built her career on exactly that energy?
If there’s one thing we’ve learned about Gigi Hadid over the years, it’s that she’s always evolving. Just when you think she’s done it all, she steps into a new space and makes it her own. From her early modeling days to launching her own brand and now becoming the face of a fragrance that embodies luxury and strength,Gigi Hadid continues to push the boundaries of what it means to be a fashion icon.
With ‘Million Gold For Her’, she’s not just selling a fragrance, she’s setting a mood, an attitude, a way of life.
