Gigi Hadid Puts an Athleisure Spin on the Sloane Ranger Look

Trends-wise, Gigi Hadid is frequently one step ahead of her peers. The model has made the case for millennial pink, combat boots, and too many crop tops to count, so it’s a refreshing change of pace to see her dipping back into fashion fads from decades past and reworking them for the new age. Yesterday in New York, for example, Hadid was spotted wearing traditional riding boots that recalled the original Sloane Ranger, Princess Diana. The royal popularized the look of the luxurious life in London, which frequently involved equestrian activities and the cool footwear that came with it.


Hadid made the accessory her own courtesy of a few clever details, starting with a neon-orange hoodie matched to Le Specs Luxe mirrored sunglasses in the same shade. They popped against her off-duty denim jeans, which she tucked into the boots. She extended the sporty theme to a baseball cap up top and a coordinating gym bag under one arm—proving that retro classics and athleisure can make for a thoroughly modern mix.
