Gigi Hadid has faced harsh criticism online after walking in Miu Miu's Spring/Summer 2027 show during Paris Fashion Week. The model closed the 4 October runway show in a sporty look, but one social media post took aim at her walk, style and modelling career.
A post shared by the X account Golden Fashion on Monday, 5 October, included a translated Arabic comment about Hadid's Miu Miu appearance. The writer claimed that Hadid had lost her charm and said she needed 'years to learn how to walk', while also calling her walk less feminine. No evidence shows that these comments reflect the wider reaction to the model's runway appearance.
Hadid Closes Miu Miu
Hadid made her Miu Miu runway debut in Paris on 4 October, appearing in the fashion house's Spring/Summer 2027 show. Prada Group's official cast list confirms that Hadid was part of the show, which also featured names including Liu Wen, Emma Corrin, Olivia Colman and Jamie Bell.

The model wore a charcoal-grey halter-style sports bra with a low-slung pleated midi skirt covered in crystal details. She finished the look with sporty trainers and a relaxed hairstyle, matching Miu Miu's mix of casual clothing and dressed-up pieces.
Hadid was also reported to have closed the show, giving her a key position in the presentation. Harper's Bazaar described the appearance as her 2026 Paris Fashion Week debut, while Arab News also confirmed that she closed the Miu Miu show.
Social Media Comment Spreads
The criticism came from a post by Golden Fashion, which was shared on 5 October and labelled as translated from Arabic. The post attacked Hadid's runway presence, saying there was 'no charm, no charisma, no walk' and claiming that she no longer looked like a top-level model.
The same comment said Hadid's walk was 'masculine' rather than feminine and claimed that she had 'lost her sparkle'. These are personal opinions from the comment's author, not established facts about Hadid's modelling ability.
The post also made a reference to Hadid becoming involved with an 'old guy'. The comment does not name anyone, and there is no reliable basis for presenting that statement as a fact about why Hadid's career or appearance may have changed.
Her Modelling Career
Gigi Hadid has been a professional model for more than a decade and has worked with some of the biggest names in fashion. She began her New York Fashion Week runway career with Desigual in 2014 and later appeared for major fashion houses and designers around the world.
Her career has also included years of work with Miu Miu, Versace, Chanel, Victoria's Secret and other major fashion names. Her appearance at Miu Miu's latest show therefore came as part of an established modelling career, rather than as a newcomer learning how to walk on a runway.
Hadid has previously spoken about criticism of her body early in her career. She said she was told that she did not have a traditional 'runway body' because of her athletic build, after years of playing volleyball.
Miu Miu Takes a New Direction
The criticism also comes as Miu Miu continues to mix everyday clothing with high fashion. The Spring/Summer 2027 collection included sportswear, pleated skirts, trainers, denim and other pieces designed to bring casual clothes into a luxury runway setting.
The show featured several well-known names alongside professional models, including Olivia Colman, Emma Corrin, Ella Bleu Travolta and Liu Wen. Miu Miu's official information confirms the large cast for the Paris presentation.
While the Golden Fashion post focused heavily on Hadid's walk, coverage from established fashion outlets focused more on her outfit and her place in the show. Vogue and Harper's Bazaar both highlighted her Miu Miu appearance as part of her Paris Fashion Week schedule.
