Gigi Hadid, fresh off a whirlwind summer of bikini-clad getaways with celebrity friends, has returned to New York with a new fashion venture. The supermodel has launched a collaboration between her clothing brand, Guest in Residence, and the renowned Parisian restaurant, Caviar Kaspia. The collection, a testament to Hadid’s love for comfort and vibrant colors, features cozy cashmere sweaters inspired by the restaurant’s iconic caviar tins and their distinctive mosaic designs.
Hadid’s collaboration is another example of the growing trend of food-inspired fashion. From Burberry’s takeover of London’s Normans restaurant during Fashion Week to Balenciaga’s unexpected partnership with Lays chips, fashion houses are increasingly incorporating elements of culinary culture into their designs.
Hadid herself has expressed her admiration for Caviar Kaspia’s signature caviar tins, noting their timeless appeal and the rich tapestry of colors that inspired her designs. “Caviar Kaspia’s signature caviar tins are so iconic – anyone who knows me knows I love colour, and I wanted to translate the richness of the mosaics into a colourful fun cosy cashmere sweater,” Hadid said. “Timeless need not be boring.”
The collection, a delightful blend of comfort and style, is a reminder that even the most iconic institutions can inspire unexpected and delightful fashion collaborations. Hadid’s cashmere sweaters, adorned with intricate jacquard knits that mimic Caviar Kaspia’s vibrant mosaic patterns, are a testament to the power of blending classic luxury with contemporary style.
