Oversize sunglasses on her eyes, a scarf tied around her neck, and pedal pushers on her legs—if it weren’t for the crew members and modern cars behind her, we’d assume this photo of Bella Hadid was taken sometime in the mid-1900s.
Captured outside of the Pendry Hotel, as she filmed a new project in New York City, Hadid channeled her inner Hitchcock heroine, bringing a vintage charm with a handful of contemporary pieces.
Her baby-pink leather trench, for starters, was pulled straight from Prada’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, presented by Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons during Milan Fashion Week last September. The piece was designed with narrow lapels and tortoise-shell buttons, and finished with elegant top-stitching at each seam.
The Orebella founder left the breathable outerwear open, revealing a long white button-down and a glimpse of a black top underneath—which matched her opaque Celine shades, ’50s-style pedal pushers, and textured leather flats. Still, it was her floral-printed silk scarf that truly stole the show, tied around her neck to protect her brown locks from the windy weather.
Hadid is just the latest in a line of stars to borrow the mid-century look, joining the likes of Sabrina Carpenter, Jennifer Lawrence, and Kendall Jenner, who each put their own spin on the hair scarf trend within the last couple of months.
Whether leaning into picnic-core like the Man’s Best Friend singer, going for a cozy knit version like the Die My Love actor, or pairing a silk square with a full retro ensemble like Hadid, the versatile style can offer ample opportunities for experimentation. Plus, it is both practical and chic, proving some accessory tricks really are timeless.
