Gigi Hadid enjoys night out with her new Next In Fashion co-host Tan France after replacing Alexa Chung on the Netflix show


Gigi Hadid enjoyed a night out with Queer Eye star Tan France in New York on Saturday night. 

The pair, who have been friends for four years, are now teaming up for the second series of Next In Fashion and looked in great spirits during a night out at Italian restaurant Barbuto in the West Village. 

The 26-year-old model – who is replacing former co-host Alexa Chung, 38, on the Netflix show – looked trendy in edgy trousers and a chic beige blazer.

Tan, 38, bought his style A-game too with a dapper by putting a bold denim twist on a traditional three piece suit look.  

Gigi, who has a 17-month-old daughter Khai with her ex Zayn Malik, recently said she is ‘so excited’ to be hosting alongside Tan. 

Both Gigi and Tan confirmed the news on Instagram in late January, writing: ‘Who would have thought when we met over Facetime 4 years ago that we’d be hosting NEXT IN FASHION TOGETHER!’

Series one of the fashion competition hit Netflix in January 2020 starring Tan and Alexa. Alexa has yet to comment on the news she has been replaced.  

Gigi is one of the world’s best-paid models, but the catwalk star previously revealed that she doesn’t like to give her own thoughts on the outfits she has to wear for work.

She explained: ‘It’s not my job to have an opinion on what I’m wearing [on set].

‘It’s my job to wear what I wear and have enough of a photographic mind to understand how to make that piece look good, sellable, and give the feeling that is wanted by the creative team.’

Meanwhile, Gigi is also cautious about what she says in public.

The model – who has more than 70 million followers on Instagram – added: ‘You learn the hard way to be really careful with your words.’

And despite being one of the most photographed women in the world, Gigi doesn’t even like to look at herself in the mirror.

She shared: ‘I don’t spend a lot of time in the mirror at all. I brush my teeth in the shower in the morning. Or I usually look out the window.’
