Bella Hadid at Cannes 2004, the look with pro-Palestinian keffiyeh dress

The Cannes Film Festival it is not only the celebration of the best cinema of the season but it is also a continuous catwalk where fashion and politics play their part. Red carpet looks, of course, truly dreamy, but also everyday outfits, which are immediately trendy for the summer. Especially if they are worn by models and influencers. One of these is without a doubt Beautiful Hadidwho alongside her provocative but elegant red carpet outings, has indulged in some more sober leisure outings but with a decidedly powerful political message.

For a refreshing break based on ice cream (with a flavor strictly matching the look) the top model in fact showed off a keffiyeh dress with micro straps, defined by an asymmetrical flounced skirt decorated with tassels, which recalls typical summer sarongs. An outfit that implies a message of solidarity with the Palestinian people and the origins of the model, to whom Bella Hadid gave a fashion twist, completing it with the inevitable sunglasses, hoop earrings and heeled sandals, in perfect diva style on holiday among the beauties of the Côte d’Azur. The dress worn by Bella Hadid is in fact an archive creation from New York Y2K brand Michael Sears and Hushidar Mortezaie. Made in traditional red and white checked fabric and draped around the body to become an asymmetrical slip, it was presented in the brand’s Autumn Winter 2001 collection (already causing a certain stir at the time). “As we witness genocide and a time of oppression, Bella is not afraid to show her roots. No one should be,” Mortezaie, an Iranian-American designer, told Dazed. “She works with the media to share her thoughts, and that’s incredible. Hers is a message of love, survival and unity, and mine is too. This is the embodiment of this vintage dress from Michael & Hushi”.

How to match Bella Hadid’s sarong dress

Not just cinema and major events, a Cannes at this time of year there is a certain air of holiday, as demonstrated by the Bella Hadid look. The American model has in fact chosen a super fresh but always feminine keffiyeh dress for a moment of relaxation on the Croisette, which recalls the classic beach outfit, with a sarong tied at the waist, a refined version. How to replicate the style? If the stiletto heel on holiday isn’t for you, opt for a wedge espadrilles, which still ensures charm but in a more comfortable version. Add a maxi straw bag and a wide-brimmed hat, your favorite magazine under your arm, and voilà, you will be ready for your day at the beach, always chic.
