Bella Hadid may stand at 5ft 8 (172.7 cm) with a US shoe size 8.5 (EU 39, UK 6, AU 6.5, JP 25.5), but it’s her styling—not her measurements—that truly sets her apart. Known for her ability to effortlessly blend vintage, sporty, and preppy elements, Bella has become a defining force in fashion, particularly through her ’90s- and Y2K-inspired model-off-duty looks.
And while her sister Gigi is the taller sibling, Bella often uses towering heels and sculptural platforms to elongate her silhouette, adding even more impact to her already trend-setting presence.
