I’m not sure if undetectable facelifts, semaglutide, and the concept of cellular de-ageing have infiltrated the North Pole. But consider for a moment they had. The 1,700-year-old Mrs Claus might look a little more Bella Hadid than benevolent matriarch forced to bake cookies and clear out stables while her husband jets across the globe. To wit: Hadid was yesterday afternoon photographed in a long white robe layered over a sleigh-red corset with straight-legged jeans and old librarian glasses. (Mrs Claus-turned-Miss Bella Girl.)
The model was making a brief appearance at a New York pop-up for her fragrance line, Ôrebella, where she dispensed good will and gift sets to the general public. “Try new things!” she told a gathered crowd. “I want you guys to try something new every single week that you’ve always wanted to do. Because everything is embarrassing and life is too short.” But, also, stop trying some things: “I’ve realised we’re not feeling so good every time we wake up on the first. Let’s change that – we need to go into the New Year in progressive, happy, healthy, energetic ways. Love you, so much!”
Hadid – who quit drinking alcohol in 2022 and thus launched her own brand of adaptogenic seltzers – has been enjoying her third party season as a soberite. “You can either take one shot of whiskey to feel better for 20 minutes or you can drink Kin every day to feel better for a lifetime,” the model said when launching the project. “It’s not just for sober people. It’s also for Wall Street businessmen. It’s for mothers who have to go to work all day and then take care of their kids all night. It’s for people who don’t want to drink but still want to have something that makes them feel good without regret.” Mrs Claus will be swigging on the CBD this season.
