Since Bella Hadid’s modeling debut in 2013, she has been in hot demand in the fashion industry. From red carpet to runway, 22-year-old model has handled the fame and scrutiny with poise and style. Nevertheless, it should be no surprise that powerhouse brand Penshoppe is one of the fashion brands that had set their sights on her. After launching her sister Gigi’s campaign last year, Penshoppe finally welcomed the younger Hadid sister into their brand’s A-list roster. The jet-setting model is now being launched in the denim campaign this August and we got to witness the making of this highly anticipated campaign.
Set in sunny LA, the location for the campaign shoot was surrounded with graffiti tagged walls and abandoned warehouses making it the perfect setting for the “Generation Now” collection. In the midst of the lights, cameras, and photo crew is the fresh faced Bella Hadid moving effortlessly with each click of the camera. However, this Malibu girl is not taking the shoot too seriously, you can see her lighthearted side as she tries to jump on the videographer’s skateboard in between changes. She laughs then jokingly tells the team “I dabble [in skateboarding]” as she skates away. Living in the public eye, its great to see this living mannequin be so sweet and kind in real life.
As the sun shifts from high noon to the golden sunset, you can tell that she knows all the right angles and can transform from sexy to playful with each shutter of the camera. At the end of the shoot day, we settle back in her trailer and talk about how she feels to be the face of such a prestigious Asian brand, who her favorite supermodel is, and how often she steals her sister’s clothes.
