DUBAI: US Dutch Palestinian supermodel Gigi Hadid has paid tribute to her superstar friend Taylor Swift for her 34th birthday.
In a post on Instagram, Hadid shared a group picture of her with Swift and said: “Happy T-day. Love you long time sister.”
Swift celebrated her anniversary day with a dazzling birthday celebration in New York City.
The “Shake It Off” singer flaunted a black glitzy mini dress from London-based label Clio Peppiatt, that focused on hand-beading and hand-embroidery. The ensemble featured nightscape designs that included a large silver sequin moon, a sparkly starburst, and cloud appliques.
To complete her look, she wore a silver purse, black platform heels, and her signature red lip.
After the party, Swift took to Instagram to share pictures of her star-studded bash. Among the images was a picture of Hadid, Swift, and American actress Blake Lively.
“Can’t believe this year… actually… happened? Thank you for all your beautiful birthday wishes yesterday,” Swift said to her 278 million followers.
In an Instagram post, Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad said: “Happy birthday Taylor Swift, keep on shining.”
Murad shared images of Swift from her tour championing his creations. In one picture she was wearing a shimmering dark blue outfit, with embellishment and fringe detailing, paired with knee-high boots that she flaunted in Las Vegas.
Another showed her wearing a custom-made gown by Murad in a peachy hue with starburst sequin work across the length of the creation. She wore the dress during her Arizona concert.
Hadid and Swift have a strong friendship, with Hadid regularly showing unwavering support for her pal.
In July, the 28-year-old supermodel and mom-of-one watched Swift perform at Levi’s Stadium during her Eras tour stop in Santa Clara, California — taking to Instagram to share some glimpses from her experience.
Hadid reposted a photo from make-up artist Patrick Ta, showing the two friends with their arms raised during the show, both Ta and Hadid wearing a stack of the colorful beaded bracelets synonymous with Swift’s latest tour.
It was not the first time Hadid had supported Swift during her concert tour. In May, she attended the Nashville stop alongside other friends, including English singer Matty Healy, US model Lily Aldridge, and stylist Ashley Avignone.
And in June, after her Pittsburgh show, Swift was seen walking arm-in-arm with Hadid outside of Nobu Downtown in New York City.
