Throughout the years, we’ve gotten used to Bella Hadid serving nothing but face. Whether she’s fronting advertising campaigns for Versace, Moschino and Helmut Lang or wowing us on the covers of Allure, Harper’s Bazaar Arabia, Vogue Greece and V Magazine, Bella knows how to strike a pose. No wonder Swarovski tapped the American beauty for its latest campaign along with Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott as photographers. In the playful and colorful images, Bella gazes down the lens evoking different attitudes while dripping in eye-catching creations from the luxurious jeweler.

GivenchyHomme isn’t sold: “They made Bella Hadid look like a CGI character thanks to disastrous retouching. She has great skin so I don’t understand why they went overboard with the retouching. Her freckles would have added a human touch.”
“Bella has a cold, angular beauty that makes her ideal for jewelry campaigns,” noted tigerrouge.
“She looks so mature and I love that kind of beauty,” admitted ivano.
