Bella Hadid's fall style mixes '90s minimalism, Y2K streetwear, a bit of Western and a lot of vintage. The pieces repeat: worn leather or suede outerwear, relaxed denim, low-rise trousers, loafers, pointed boots and big sunglasses, mostly in camel, chocolate and black. What makes it work isn't any one garment. It's the habit of pairing one strong piece with plain basics and shoes you can walk in. When I translate a celebrity look for a client, I keep that habit and change the rise, hem and jacket length to suit her body. The outfits below are built the same way.
Scaling Low Rises and Oversized Leather to Your Height
Most of these outfits were worn on a tall, long-legged frame, and the same pieces behave differently on a shorter or curvier body. Low rises, big jackets and long hems are the three places where copying exactly tends to go wrong. Here's how I adjust them in a fitting.
- Low-rise trousers sit on the hip bone and make the leg look shorter. Pair them with a cropped jacket or a top that ends at the waistband, or move up to a mid-rise.
- Oversized jackets should still fit at the shoulder. If the seam drops well past your shoulder, the jacket wears you; size down until the seam sits close to the shoulder point.
- Long hems that pool over loafers look relaxed on a tall frame and sloppy on a short one. Hem trousers to just touch the top of the shoe.
- Only one oversized piece per outfit if you're petite. Keep the other half fitted.
- Knee-high boots should end just below the knee bend. Too tall and they dig in when you sit; too short and they cut the calf at its widest.
None of these rules change the mood of the outfit. They just keep the proportions in your favor, which is what makes a borrowed look feel like your own.
1. Bella Hadid Autumn Brown Suede Jacket Outfit
Brown suede over flannel over a white tee is the most recognizable of her autumn formulas, and also the easiest to copy from an ordinary closet. Relaxed straight-leg jeans in a medium or dark wash should stack slightly over chestnut ankle boots; that small break at the hem is what gives the vintage feel. A slouchy shoulder bag and narrow sunglasses finish it. If three loose layers bury you, wear the flannel open so it makes two vertical lines, or pick a shorter suede jacket. Keep it for dry days, since suede spots in rain.
2. Bella Hadid Autumn Black Leather Jacket Outfit
A slightly oversized black leather blouson over a slim charcoal top and dark indigo jeans is a cool-morning outfit that never looks underdressed. The detail people skip is the sock: rounded black loafers with white or gray socks showing is what makes this read as hers rather than generic. A big leather tote and shield sunglasses add the scale. Petite? Choose ankle-length jeans so there's no extra fabric bunching on the loafer. Curvier frames tend to look best in a jacket that stops at the high hip rather than at the widest point.
3. Bella Hadid Autumn Brown Trench Coat Outfit
A chocolate trench belted at the waist is darker and moodier than the classic khaki, and it pairs well with charcoal or black wide-leg trousers. Underneath, a fitted cream sweater over a camisole keeps the middle slim. I match the shoulder bag to the coat, which pulls the whole outfit together without any effort at the face. When I don't want pressure at the waist, I tie the belt behind the back: the coat still nips in but nothing digs. Open, it gives a longer line. Loafers and small gold earrings keep it sensible enough for work.
4. Bella Hadid Autumn Leather Blazer Outfit
Caramel leather against all-black underneath is a '90s color story I like because the leather does all the talking. A fitted black turtleneck, straight black jeans and pointed ankle boots with a heel you can walk in are the base. When I fit a leather blazer, I look at the shoulder first: it should follow the shoulder line, not sit on top of heavy pads, because leather won't drape to hide a poor fit. Hip length gives coverage; cropped makes the legs look longer. If black is too stark, espresso or deep charcoal soften it.
5. Bella Hadid Autumn Utility Jacket And Black Dress Outfit
Throwing an oversized beige utility jacket over a little black dress is her trick for making a dress look casual, and it works for anyone. The odd details are the point: opaque knee socks, sneaker-ballet flats, a cap and sporty wraparound sunglasses. I'd keep the bag large to balance the narrow dress. For more coverage, use a fitted midi or add sheer tights under the socks. This is an early-autumn outfit, for days that start cool and turn warm, since the dress alone won't hold up in real cold.
6. Bella Hadid Autumn Bomber Jacket And Midi Skirt Outfit
A roomy bomber over a flowing midi skirt sets sporty against soft, and the contrast is the appeal. Black or dark brown on top, olive, khaki or taupe below, with a fitted ribbed top in between so the waist doesn't vanish. Tall black boots should disappear under the hem; any skin showing between boot and skirt breaks the line. Petite women do better with a skirt that ends just below the knee rather than at the ankle. If you want more shape, tuck in the top and choose a bomber with a ribbed hem that sits at the waist.
7. Bella Hadid Autumn Low-Rise Trouser And Loafer Outfit
Low-rise black trousers, a white tank and a cropped leather jacket carry the Y2K side of her wardrobe. The cropped jacket matters: it shows where the trousers sit and keeps a low rise from making the torso look long. Horsebit-style loafers, a narrow belt and dark sunglasses finish it. Low rises aren't comfortable for everyone, and they can shorten the leg, so I'd go mid-rise if you're unsure. For the office, take a higher rise and a lined top. The hem should nearly reach the floor without dragging, or the relaxed shape just looks untidy.
8. Bella Hadid Autumn Moto Jacket And Leather Pants Outfit
For evening, I'd put an oversized moto jacket over a plain gray or white tee, slim leather pants and pointed black boots. The tee keeps all that leather from getting heavy. Choose pants with some stretch and a soft waistband, since unlined leather has no give at the knees when you sit. The rule I follow: one big piece, one slim piece. A roomy jacket needs narrow pants; wide-leg leather pants need a shorter jacket. Mixing a matte jacket with slightly glossy pants keeps an all-black outfit from going flat.
9. Bella Hadid Autumn Barn Jacket And Plaid Skirt Outfit
A barn jacket with a corduroy collar gives this off-duty style a countryside angle. Tan, olive or chocolate over a white tee, with a plaid midi in brown, burgundy or forest green. The skirt should sit at your natural waist and move freely, because the jacket is boxy and needs that softness below it. Dark loafers with visible socks keep it a little quirky; knee-high riding boots and ribbed tights take it into colder weather. Petite frames suit a shorter barn jacket. Longer cuts are warmer and give more coverage at the hip.
10. Bella Hadid Autumn Camel Jacket And Cropped Jeans Outfit
Cropped flares with a cream funnel-neck and a camel jacket is the gentlest outfit in this list, and an easy one for mild days. The jeans should end near the ankle bone so the cognac loafers and neutral socks show; any longer and the crop just looks too short. Camel suede or wool both work. Keep the sweater fitted enough to sit under the jacket without bunching at the arms. Straight ankle jeans give a similar result if flares aren't for you. Tortoiseshell sunglasses and gold earrings carry the brown through.
11. Bella Hadid Autumn Suede Skirt And Knit Sweater Outfit
A suede A-line midi with a chunky ribbed sweater tucked in loosely gives you texture without needing a coat. Chestnut, tobacco or deep olive suede all suit autumn. The boots matter most: knee-high brown boots that disappear under the hem make one continuous line, while a gap of bare leg breaks it. A wide belt holds the knit in place. Real suede marks easily, so washable faux suede is a sensible choice if the skirt will see daily wear. The sweater can be fitted or loose depending on how much waist you want to show.
12. Bella Hadid Autumn Distressed Leather Jacket Outfit
A worn-in brown leather jacket makes plain denim look like it has a history. I'd put it over a red-and-black striped sweater and loose dark jeans with a straight or slightly tapered leg. Chunky black shoes or square-toe boots ground it. When buying, I steer people toward a soft, naturally aged finish rather than heavy distressing, which looks staged and is hard to wear with anything else. If bold stripes are too busy, a burgundy knit with thin cream lines does the same job. Cuff the jeans once for loafers; leave them full length over boots.
13. Bella Hadid Autumn Oversized Blazer And Mini Skirt Outfit
Her proportion play is easiest to see in an oversized blazer over a mini skirt. A fitted charcoal mock-neck goes underneath, then a black, gray or subtle plaid mini, then a roomy menswear blazer. Sheer black tights and knee-high riding boots make the short hem workable in autumn. The blazer should cover the skirt's waistband but doesn't need to cover its hem. If the mini feels too short, tailored shorts or a knee-length skirt work with the same jacket. A slim belt over the blazer stops it from swamping you.
14. Bella Hadid Autumn Racing Jacket And Baggy Jeans Outfit
A vintage racing jacket is the loudest piece here, so everything else stays quiet: a fitted neutral tank, loose low or mid-rise jeans, retro sneakers. Pick one with few patches and clean graphics; too many logos start to look like a costume. The jeans should be long but must not drag under the heel, where denim frays fast. Oversized on oversized can look bulky on smaller frames, so either crop the jacket or slim the jeans. On colder days a thin turtleneck replaces the tank.
15. Bella Hadid Autumn Long Wool Coat And Hoodie Outfit
A long tailored wool coat over a hoodie and leggings is my answer to the travel-day outfit that still looks dressed. The coat gives the soft base a strong outline. Black, charcoal or camel, below the knee. Leggings must be thick and opaque, since thin ones turn shiny and see-through when stretched; straight-leg sweatpants are an alternative. Petite wearers look better in a mid-calf coat, while tall frames can carry ankle length. Keep the palette to two or three shades so it looks deliberate rather than thrown together.
16. Bella Hadid Autumn Shearling Jacket And Cowboy Boots Outfit
Western pieces sit naturally in her autumn wardrobe, and a shearling jacket with pointed cowboy boots is the clearest example. A fitted cream henley under a brown shearling jacket, straight blue jeans over the boot, and a solid leather belt. The jeans should cover most of the shaft so only the toe and heel show; tucking them in pushes the look toward costume. A big shearling collar needs a plain top and no scarf. Curvier wearers can choose a jacket that ends below the hip, while waist-length shows off the legs.
17. Bella Hadid Autumn Cardigan And Wide-Leg Trouser Outfit
A fine-knit cardigan buttoned as a top with wide-leg trousers is the softer side of this style. Heather gray, chocolate or muted red over charcoal, black or pinstripe trousers, with square-toe ballet flats. Leave the top button open for an easy neckline, or wear a camisole underneath. The trousers should skim the floor but still let the toe of the flat show. Low and mid rises suit the Y2K feel; if you want more support, take a higher rise and tuck a matching knit tank in. Close at the top, wide below, and the balance looks right.
18. Bella Hadid Autumn Double Denim Outfit
Double denim looks expensive when the washes are close. A deep indigo denim shirt or cropped jean jacket with jeans one shade darker reads as a set. A long brown leather coat breaks up all that blue, and pointed ankle boots keep it sharp. If a denim shirt feels stiff, chambray is softer and tucks more cleanly. A dark belt separates top from bottom. I'd skip heavy fading and rips here; the leather coat should be the only piece with character.
19. Bella Hadid Autumn Slip Dress And Leather Jacket Outfit
A slip dress can carry into autumn with a thin turtleneck underneath and an oversized leather jacket on top. Black, chocolate or muted olive in a midi length, with sheer tights and knee-high boots. Bias-cut slips cling and show every line underneath, so smooth underwear matters; a straighter cut is more forgiving. A slim belt over the dress adds shape before the jacket goes on. The delicate fabric against heavy leather is the tension her styling relies on, and it moves from a day out to dinner without a change.
20. Bella Hadid Autumn Monochrome Brown Outfit
All-brown works when the browns differ slightly and the textures differ a lot. A fitted espresso knit, wide-leg trousers a shade lighter, then a long suede coat or cropped leather jacket. Dark brown pointed boots and a tonal bag close it. Don't chase an exact match; small differences in tone give depth. Brown near the face can look heavy on some complexions, so a cream scarf or white tee at the neckline helps. Trousers with a flat front and enough length to skim the boot keep the column clean.
What I Check on a Secondhand Leather Jacket
So much of this style is built on worn-in leather and suede that a vintage or secondhand jacket is often the best buy. Older leather can be excellent, but a few faults are expensive or impossible to fix, so I look for these before anything else.
Problems worth walking away from
- Cracking or flaking on the surface, especially at the elbows and collar fold. Dried-out leather keeps cracking once it starts.
- A strong musty smell that doesn't fade after airing, which often means mildew inside.
- A shoulder that's too narrow. Shoulders are the hardest part of any jacket to alter, and leather is harder still.
Problems that are easy to fix
- A torn lining, which a tailor can replace.
- A stuck or broken zipper.
- Light surface scuffs, which leather conditioner usually softens.
- Flattened suede nap, which a suede brush can lift.
Try the jacket on with the thickest layer you plan to wear under it, whether that's a flannel or a sweater. Leather barely stretches across the back, so a jacket that only fits over a tee will be too tight by November.
Her Formula, Adjusted to Your Own Closet
Copying Bella Hadid's fall style comes down to pairing strong vintage pieces with plain, practical ones. Leather jackets, suede, relaxed denim, fitted knits, loafers and pointed boots are the base; sunglasses and a structured bag add personality. You don't need designer labels or her proportions. Pick rises and lengths you're comfortable in, then work the contrasts: oversized with fitted, polished with casual, delicate with rugged. Repeating one color across several textures makes an inexpensive outfit look considered.
