Gigi Hadid Turns Pajamas Into High Fashion in Morgan Lane Silk and Stuart Weitzman Heels

Back in April 2017, Gigi Hadid gave new meaning to the hashtag “I woke up like this” when she stepped out in NYC in a look that defined the era’s peak off-duty glam.

Photographed leaving her apartment and heading to the then-new Stuart Weitzman headquarters, the supermodel embraced the pajama-dressing trend in an emerald silk Morgan Lane set paired with barely-there Stuart Weitzman sandals.

Even in this early street-style moment, Gigi proved she could turn loungewear into a full fashion statement.

For this 2017 street-style moment, the then-21-year-old model wore Morgan Lane’s “Peacock Ruthie Top,” a striped silk charmeuse pajama blouse finished with bead-and-sequin embroidery, Mother-of-Pearl buttons, contrast piping, and two front pockets.

Gigi’s Personalized Morgan Lane Set: Custom Embroidery, Matching Silk Pants & Effortless Beauty

Instead of the collection’s original quilted peacock appliqué, Gigi’s version featured her name embroidered in cursive on the chest pocket—an early nod to the trend of personalized luxury.

She paired the top with the matching “Peacock Chantal Pant,” cut from the same printed silk charmeuse and designed with a drawstring waist, contrast-stripe cuffs, and a relaxed, fluid fit.

Keeping the look effortless, Gigi styled her hair in a low braid with soft tendrils framing her makeup-free face.

Gigi Hadid Completes the Look With Stuart Weitzman Heels and a Nod to Her Long-Running Partnership

She finished the ensemble with Garrett Leight eyeglasses and white ankle-strap heels from Stuart Weitzman—a fitting choice given her long-running partnership with the brand, which included fronting multiple campaigns and even designing philanthropic collaborations like the Gigi Boot and the EYELOVE mules.

Gigi completed the look in white satin Stuart Weitzman “Nudistsong” sandals, the brand’s iconic minimalist stiletto known for its barely-there double-strap silhouette. Part of the famed Nudist Collection, the Nudistsong offers a slightly lower 105 mm heel than the original “Nudist,” making it a go-to for celebrities who love the leg-lengthening effect but prefer a more wearable height.

Later that year, Bella Hadid wore black “Nudistsong” heels from Stuart Weitzman with a red Atsuko Kudo latex dress at the 2017 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Viewing Party in New York City.

Available in satin, suede, and patent leather, the style remains a red-carpet staple celebrated for its versatility—even if the delicate toe strap can run narrow for some wearers.
