Hadid says that, when she has a free day, which is not all that often these days, she isn’t, as you might imagine for one of the most famous young people in the world, hang gliding from a pyramid or floating in a glistening lagoon. I always try and leave set proud of what I do, and so when I get to see out it’s really exciting. “It wasn’t about the actual clothes and the business behind fashion until I got into it. “I grew up loving iconic photos and that’s why I wanted to be a model,” she says. The model will soon be seen in new print ads for Evian, as part of its Baby Bay campaign (“I grew up with my mom pushing the importance of staying hydrated,” she says, believably), and she says that she still finds it thrilling to see herself on billboards or on taxicab banners. You know what I mean?” (I nod my head vigorously, even though it is, of course, impossible for me to know, precisely.) I try to just not think of the extent of the fan base all the time. I have to remember that there’s a safety boundary and stuff. “Sometimes that gets me into trouble because. I’m not Gigi Hadid.” She takes a long pause.

If you ran into her on the street, she seems like she’d give you a hug and tell you about her previous night in detail and hand you a piece of fruit from her bag (“Oh, do you want this?”). She has received much attention for her social-media mastery, and she certainly conveys-in the well-cropped pictures and material that she posts-a charmed, glam life, but her brand is also one of approachability. You’d be hard-pressed to open a magazine this summer that didn’t feature Hadid’s face on multiple pages. Her sister is a model her Real Housewives mother was a model her brother is about to be a model. She has 17.7 million Instagram followers, a pop-star boyfriend ( Zayn Malik), and a cadre of very famous best friends ( Kendall Jenner and Taylor Swift among them). Hadid is a rare case, in that she manages to embody both California Surfer Babe and Sleek Euro Fashion Model at the same time.
