Bella Hadid Is a Barely Clothed Poster Girl on First Magazine Cover Since Her Modeling Hiatus

Bella Hadid is back!

For her first magazine shoot since taking a year-long hiatus from modeling to focus on her health, Hadid, 27, graced four different covers of Perfect Magazine’s Spring/Summer 2024 issue.

The supermodel not only posed for but also art-directed the cover shoot for the U.K. magazine’s special sixth issue, which took inspiration from Blondie’s Debbie Harry.

She broadcasted her return by sharing the covers — along with behind-the-scenes content — on Instagram, writing, “Familia 🪽 Back in action Love you.”

Also announcing Hadid’s return on Instagram, the magazine wrote, “After a year away from modelling, Bella Hadid is back in Perfect issue 6, returning with a story whose creative team she handpicked and directed in the studio.”

For the first cover of the Bryce Anderson-lensed shoot, a heavily blushed Hadid wore nothing but hoop earrings, black panties and a specially screen-printed poster that reads: “Absolutely nothing. Nothing at all.”

The magazine provided more details about the image on Instagram, revealing that it is “inspired by an image of Debbie Harry performing in 1978, wearing as a dress a poster she had torn from the wall outside the venue.”

While sharing the second cover — which features Hadid in a hot-pink, inside-out T-shirt — Perfect referenced Blondie explicitly, quoting the ‘70s new wave icon: “I’m always touched by your presence dear.”

Also in the caption, the magazine wrote, ”Welcome HOME Bella.”

For the third cover of the Katie Grand-styled shoot, Hadid donned a little black dress, which she wore a sleek hairstyle and knee-high, metallic boots as she posed on a chair, serving up “raw fashion power,” as the magazine phrased it.

The fourth and final cover channeled “T-shirts motorbikes and girls next door,” the photographer, Anderson, wrote on Instagram.

Hadid once again wears a slogan for this cover, “Screaming in Perfect English,” this time on a T-shirt by Corbin Shaw, the same artist who screenprinted the shoot’s Blondie-inspired poster.

The supermodel’s grand return comes months after she posted a health update, revealing why she took a step back from modeling in 2023.
In August, Hadid took to Instagram to share that she “finally healthy” after over a decade of intense health struggles, including “100+ days of Lyme, chronic disease, [co-infection] treatment [and] almost 15 years of invisible suffering.”

Hadid concluded the message by writing that she loves and misses her fans, and will “be back when I’m ready.”
