Bella Hadid looked stunning in a strapless dress in New York City on Thursday – days after revealing she is taking a step back from her modelling career.
The supermodel, 27, wowed in a lace bodice dress with an intricate frilled skirt paired with strappy sandals as she waved at fans.
Her locks were styled in a chic updo and she sported smoky eye makeup.
The frequent Vogue cover model – who sold her LA home and moved to Texas –made the sidewalks of Manhattan her catwalk as she sashayed down the street.
Last month Hadid opened up about her hiatus from modeling, telling Allure: ‘After 10 years of modeling I realized I was putting so much energy and love and effort into something that, in the long run, wasn’t necessarily giving it back to me.’
Last month, TMZ reported that Bella bought a house in a rural area near Fort Worth.
The property is far enough from the city center to give her privacy but close enough that she doesn’t feel cut off from civilization.
Bella’s boyfriend Adan is a horseman and the son of Ascencion Banuelos, the first Mexican-American to be inducted into the National Cutting Horse ᴀssociation Hall of Fame.
He is said to own a home close to Bella’s and the couple splits their time between their two places.
Adan is a superstar in the horseriding world and, in 2017, became one of the youngest people to ever be inducted into the NCHA Hall of Fame.
Bella is also an avid horsewoman and often documents her love of the animal and sport on her social media channels.
Bella took a six-month hiatus from working and competing in horse compeтιтions in 2023 amid her years-long battle with Lyme disease.
It is unclear how Bella and Adan met but since Bella is competing in equestrienne events again, they probably run in the same horse circles and likely met that way.
Later on Thursday Bella reemerged on the streets of the Big Apple in a second look.
The beauty, whose mother is former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Yolanda Hadid, showed off her long legs in a Gucci skort.
The dark gray micro skirt was teamed with a coordinating blazer.
She added a black belt with the fashion house’s recognizable double-G logo.
And she layered a low-cut light brown blouse underneath her top layer.
The fashionista, whose older sister Gigi Hadid just turned 29, complemented the chic look with a burgundy purse that she slung over her shoulder.
The office-ready outfit was taken up a notch with the addition of rectangular eyeglᴀsses with thin black rims.
Hadid’s trendy ensemble was rounded out with a pair of platform beige and brown Gucci loafers.
