The model of the moment sported Zuhair Murad as she was honoured with a top award.
As one of the world’s most in-demand models, Gigi Hadid clearly has a talent for making a gown look good.
However the 22-year-old glowed even more than usual (and that’s really saying something) on Monday, as she picked up a trophy in a truly goddess-worthy number.

The half-Palestinian model was honoured with Glamour US magazine’s Supernova Award in New York, and chose a design from the Middle East for the ceremony.
This embellished fishtail gown comes from Zuhair Murad’s Autumn/Winter ’16 collection, and it’s perhaps one of our favourite pieces we’ve ever seen Hadid don.
With a demure high neck, intricate latticing and sweeping sleeves, the Lebanese label’s mesmerising gown ensured the model really stole the spotlight on the red carpet.
Hadid even brought younger sister Bella along for the night, and mum Yolanda, with the trio posing for a touching family portrait.
The Tommy Hilfiger collaborator was bestowed with the award on the night for her wide-reaching career, though Hadid told the crowd “winning this award doesn’t mean I have it all figured it out”.
“If you don’t feel strong every day, that’s OK. That’s normal. Something could happen in the course of your day that could change the course of your day, your week, your life,” the model told attendees, Glamour reports.
However tennis champ Serena Williams, who presented the award to the humble Hadid, said it was the model’s hard work and dedication which had led to her stellar rise to success.
“She understands that in order to be the best, you have to think like you are the best, work the hardest, and make sacrifices,” said William on stage.
Hadid, who this year alone has walked at numerous fashion weeks and graced the cover of many magazine, looks set to see her star continue to rise.
Last month she revealed her first beauty line, in collaboration with makeup giant Maybelline, with one of the range’s palettes selling out in just 90 minutes in the UK.
