Even Gigi Hadid’s Accessories Have Accessories

There’s always something else to buy, isn’t there? This time, your handbag needs a little pick-me-up. A trinket, keyring or charm is just the dopamine rush you and your arm candy need to get through this dismal summer, according to Gigi Hadid, who is still a staunch advocate of String Ting.

Should we be taking style tips from a woman who wore not one, but two taxi cab-yellow looks (one Miu Miu, one LaQuan Smith, since you asked) last night? Yes, we should, for Hadid has already catapulted both kicked bobs and jorts into the mainstream this season.

The common thread connecting Hadid’s searing Deadpool premiere looks was her petite Miu Miu purse, laden with the kind of touristy paraphernalia a sight-seer might pick up after a tour of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Even the most hardened fashion editor isn’t immune to the joy of a novelty purchase scored for a dime on a whim. Just look at the frenzy Demna whipped up with his nostalgic eBay gifts, which he reportedly personally sourced for editors as his fall 2024 show invitations (the Balenciaga versions later appeared tacked onto bags on the runway.)
