Gigi Hadid wore DHL packing tape as a dress during Vetements Spring/Summer 2025 Paris Fashion Week – see photos

Gigi Hadid found herself in a difficult situation at the Vetements Spring/Summer 2025 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week. The supermodel walked the runway in a dress made from DHL parcel tape and matching high heels.

Hadid wore a figure-hugging, strapless minidress that appeared to be made entirely of the iconic yellow packaging tape with the red DHL logo, although it likely had a fabric lining on the inside — or at least we hope. Additionally, she wore a pair of matching pointed heels that were also covered in yellow and red tape. Yes, you read that correctly. The same tape you use to close and seal your on-time packages every day just made its debut on the runway.

For this occasion, the Vetements team skipped all accessories and let the two pieces inspired by the packaging speak for themselves. Hadid simply wore her signature blonde bob in loose, wet waves with a side part in a millennial style. For a very understated look, she wore just a touch of matte nude lipstick and mascara.

One motif of this collection seems to be the creation of garments from unconventional materials. Other pieces on the runway included a dress made from newspaper and a dress made from other clothing items. And it's not the first time Demna, co-founder of Vetements and creative director of Balenciaga, has put his name behind a tape-focused outfit (or a DHL look that the shipping company's brand applied). the catwalk for almost ten years). Hadid's runway appearance gave many fashion lovers a sense of déjà vu as Kim Kardashian wore a Balenciaga tape bodysuit in 2022. So many people sense a theme here.
