Bella Hadid, 29, shocked everyone with her latest daring fashion choice. She wore a slinky black backless dress with cheeky cutouts that showed off her nude thong at a fancy dinner party with a card game theme. On January 23, 2026, the supermodel shared hot Instagram photos of herself in a plunging halter-neck gown from Jean Paul Gaultier’s 2001 collection. This dress perfectly represents the Y2K exposed thong revival.

Hadid took the sultry look to the next level for the casino vibe, which included playing cards, disco balls, pearl martinis, and her Orebella perfume bottle. She wore tousled waves, a lace masquerade mask, thick silver cuffs, and emerald diamond earrings. Stylist Mimi Cuttrell joined in on the fun by reposting the outfit and tagging Hadid, showing off their creative teamwork.

The outfit took center stage just days after Hadid walked the red carpet for the FX/Hulu premiere of Ryan Murphy’s The Beauty on January 21, where she plays Ruby with Ashton Kutcher and Anthony Ramos. Fans loved her style, which pushed the limits of what was acceptable in celebrity fashion.
