Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid Unveil Secrets of Their Enduring Friendship on Vogue Cover
The Unbreakable Bond Between Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid: A Vogue Exclusive
In a stunning turn of events, two of the world's most beloved supermodels, Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, are gracing the coveted October cover of Vogue magazine together! The dynamic duo has been friends for years, and their bond is stronger than ever. In an exclusive interview with thescholarlynote.com, they open up about their unforgettable friendship, sharing intimate details and laughter-filled moments that will leave readers swooning.
The shoot, which was a masterclass in contrasting style, saw Kendall, 29, rocking a structured plaid coat, while Gigi, 30, slayed the game with a bold patchwork dress. But what's even more remarkable is the depth of their friendship, which has been forged through the highs and lows of modeling and life.
Gigi recalls a poignant moment from 2020 when she was pregnant and secretly confided in Kendall backstage at Burberry. "You were one of the only people in the world who knew," Gigi shared, her voice filled with emotion. "And Kenny was the only person I could look at from across the room and just be like, 'Oh yeah, a soda.' She got me a little can of Coke." This small act of kindness reflects the trust they've built over the years, one that transcends the runway and magazine covers.
Their mutual admiration society began when Kendall first joined the fashion scene in 2014. "I was intimidated by her at first," Kendall confessed to thescholarlynote.com. "She's so gorgeous, and I remember seeing this photo of her with her long blond mane... I think it was a black-and-white photo." Gigi playfully chimed in, "I had acne and braces back then! And, I remember seeing that photo and being like, 'What the f**k?'"
It's clear that these two supermodels have been through thick and thin together. They trace their closeness back to their teens, when they would bunk together on early modeling trips. "I was your biggest fan," Kendall gushed. "And once we started to work together and do shows, I remember those early seasons – we'd do the whole month together." Gigi added that she'll never forget her first Chanel fitting in 2014, when Kendall helped calm her nerves before meeting Karl Lagerfeld in Paris.
But it's not all sunshine and rainbows. The two supermodels are open about the challenges they've faced in their personal relationships. "We did have a double date situation once," Kendall revealed, with Gigi sheepishly admitting that she had forgotten about it. However, when asked to recall the details, Kendall playfully teased her friend, saying, "It'll come to you! You tried to set me up. You were in a relationship and I was single, and you were trying to set me up with someone to be part of your gang?"
Their friendship has seen its fair share of ups and downs, but one thing is certain – they're each other's rock. When asked about the last time they cried in front of each other, Kendall replied, "Probably so long ago... Definitely not recently." Gigi elaborated, "It's mostly when we've gone through boy stuff and we're kind of at the end of that road. I feel like we're both really strong people and not whiners and complainers, but we're vulnerable when it's time to be."
The fashion world has taken notice of their unbreakable bond, with top designers praising their unique friendship. Marc Jacobs, who first cast Kendall in 2014, told thescholarlynote.com, "I think of them as part of the same moment in fashion. There was a hunger for the supermodel thing we knew from the past... and with Kendall and Gigi, they had this fresh enthusiasm." Jeremy Scott, who worked with both models on numerous occasions, added, "They're really good on their own, but better together. I think of them like my salt and pepper shakers."
Simon Porte Jacquemus, who cast them in his viral Versailles show last year, simply said, "Two of the top supermodels of our generation and they're just two friends having fun and being cuckoo like 12-year-olds." Their friendship is a testament to the power of female bonding, one that transcends the glamour of modeling and magazine covers.
As they take on the fashion world together, Kendall and Gigi prove that their bond will only continue to grow stronger. And for those who thought they were just supermodels, think again – these two are true friends for life.
