supermodel Gigi Hadid has unveiled her latest collaboration with long-time friend Francesca Aiello on a new collection for Aiello’s swimwear brand Frankies Bikinis, just in time for the summer.
Hadid announced the collaboration, which is set to drop online on May 11, in an Instagram post.
She said: “So excited to finally share Gigi x Frankies. This collection was so special to create with my hometown girlie.”
Aiello said: “Thank you G for trusting me with your vision on this project. This collection means so much to us and is filled with nostalgia, sentiment, and so much love. What a dream come true.”
Featuring 98 pieces of ready-to-wear and swimsuits, the expansive offering boasts feminine silhouettes with ruffles, floral print, plaid, polka-dots, and frills. It draws inspiration from the pair’s longstanding friendship. The duo, who grew up together in Malibu, California have known each other since Hadid was in the eighth grade.
