Gigi and Bella Hadid Revive Tartan & Heavy Boots: How to Style the Hadid Sisters’ Paris Fashion Week Looks

In Paris during Fashion Week in March 2022, Gigi and Bella Hadid stepped out in contrasting plaid-heavy looks that reflected two sides of the era’s street style mood: polished utilitarian layering and revived ’90s grunge.

While the sisters wore pieces from labels including Vivienne Westwood, Maison Margiela, and Prada, the footwear grounded each outfit — from Gigi’s classic Dr. Martens 1460 boots to Bella’s chunky Prada lug-sole knee-highs.

Away from the runway, the sisters continued the plaid-heavy styling trend outside Nouvelle Eve ahead of Vivienne Westwood’s Fall 2022 presentation, pairing layered tailoring with heavy boots and exaggerated proportions that defined much of early-2020s street fashion.

Gigi Hadid looked chic in a $1,575 Vivienne Westwood Graziano yellow trench coat made in Italy from recycled polyester. The full-length coat features a tartan pattern, which is one of the British luxury fashion label’s key prints for Spring 2022.

Underneath, the American model wore loose-fitting beige trousers and a matching beige V-neck top.

She pulled her tresses into a casual bun with a side parting and wore barely-there makeup, with her eyes hidden behind a pair of Versace Lunettes Medusa 96 Oval Noires shades.

As for her accessories, Gigi skipped the jewelry and simply carried a Prada Cleo Maxi Brushed leather shoulder bag.

A pair of Dr. Martens 1460 Smooth boots rounded out her off-duty model look. Available at Nordstrom, these boots are made from black leather and feature round toes, front lace-up fastenings, a logo pull tab, signature yellow-stitching, and air-cushioned soles.

Bella Hadid Revives ’90s Grunge in Prada Lug-Sole Knee-High Boots

Gigi’s younger sister, on the other hand, opted for a ’90s grunge look in a vintage Jean Paul Gaultier purple-and-green tartan skirt with a black flap at the top.

Bella Hadid styled it with a thin black belt featuring chain detailing and paired the look with a black Maison Margiela Spring 2022 off-the-shoulder corset top, which she wore over a Brandy Melville white ribbed tank top.

Continuing with the grungy aesthetic, Bella accessorized with a $42 Twenty One August Black Daisy necklace and slipped into a pair of Prada leather chunky lug-sole boots.

She then carried her stuff in a Prada bowling bag and hid her eyes behind a pair of Biacci sunglasses.

Gigi and Bella Hadid Make Combat Boots and Lug Soles the Story in Paris

From Gigi Hadid’s timeless Dr. Martens 1460 boots to Bella Hadid’s heavy Prada lug soles, the sisters approached Paris Fashion Week street style from two different angles while still reflecting the same early-2020s obsession with oversized tailoring, tartan layers, and utilitarian footwear.

Their coordinated yet contrasting looks captured how combat boots, knee-high lug soles, and grunge-inspired styling became defining fashion staples both on and off the runway.
