Bella Hadid Revives the Office Siren Look with Galliano Glamour
Bella Hadid has returned to her fashion roots, embracing the “office siren” aesthetic that defined her early style resurgence. The model, 29, appeared at the Middle Eastern launch of her beauty brand Orebella wearing a structured maroon John Galliano skirt suit that paid homage to early 2000s power dressing.
Styled by her long-time collaborator Mimi Cuttrell, Hadid’s ensemble featured exaggerated hips and sharp tailoring — a modern take on the boardroom glamour once synonymous with Miu Miu’s wire-frame glasses and the cinematic energy of The Devil Wears Prada.
Though the model has spent much of the year away from the spotlight — “quiet” by Hadid standards, which still includes walking for Saint Laurent and the Victoria’s Secret show — her return marks a full-circle fashion moment.
In recent months, Hadid has leaned into her Texan phase, often seen alongside her boyfriend, professional rodeo rider Adan Banuelos. Their couple aesthetic — rich in cowboy hats, boots, and Americana charm — has dominated social media. Yet, her latest appearance reminds fans that her polished, Y2K-inspired tailoring remains a defining signature.
While her maroon Galliano look might not fit into the average office setting, it represents a form of sartorial nostalgia that feels timely. With the festive season approaching and corporate events on the horizon, Hadid’s outfit revives a sense of retro glamour and unapologetic femininity.
Hadid’s ability to blend contrasting aesthetics — equestrian ease and metropolitan sophistication — continues to reinforce her status as one of fashion’s most versatile figures. Whether embodying a Western muse or an office siren, she remains, as one fan put it online, “the blueprint for modern glamour.”
