Some celebs may look untouchable in leather pants, stilettos, and furs as they clack through the terminals at JFK and LAX, but others manage to look cool and comfy at once (as in, you know they’re not dying to unbutton/unzip/unhook the second they drop into their cushy first-class seat).
Model Gigi Hadid—who jet sets between continents, not just coasts—has an approach to airport style that’s a little more relatable—and eminently copy-able. To brave a recent seven-hour flight from New York to Paris, the beauty opted for something we might wear: a cozy sweatsuit and chunky gate-friendly combat boots. The magic, though, came from the topper: Hadid covered her comfy-stretchy outfit under the coat of the season: the wool duster.
Like the classic version, in camel, Hadid’s rust-toned coat looked great open or belted—easy, unfussy, and elegant. Somehow it paired perfectly with her super-casual airplane ensemble—but you could totally see it with a diaphanous midi dress peaking out the bottom.
As in, this is the kind of coat you can wear with everything for years to come—and no matter what it touches, it makes that outfit better, cooler, cleaner, more upscale. Scroll for seven camel coats like Gigi’s to make you look like an off-duty model and feel like a swaddled baby.
