It may be big sister Gigi who gets all the attention, but there’s another supermodel in the making in the Hadid clan. Last night, Bella Hadid finally got her mega moment in the spotlight when she made her debut on the super exclusive Chanel catwalk.

Bella wore two looks during the brand’s Metiers d’Art 2015/16 show last night in Rome, walking amongst Chanel mainstays and some of the all-time biggest models in the industry, including Lara Stone, Jamie Bochert, Freja Beha Erichsen, and Lindsay Wixon. Chanel’s show was inspired by Rome’s famous Cinicettà studio, with models sporting Bardot-worthy beauty looks and carrying what’s sure to be the it-accessory of the season, a Chanel bag shaped like an old-timey movie camera.

But before the runway show began, the evening kicked off with a screening of Karl Lagerfeld’s short film starring Kristen Stewart, titled Once and Forever. In the very meta ten-minute video, Stewart plays a temperamental actress playing the role of Coco Chanel, and although she’s described as a “precious gem,” it quickly becomes clear she’s a full-blown terror on set.

The Twilight actress was, of course, also in attendance at the show in Rome for the debut of her film (and she rocked some major faux hair via a super-long, slicked-back ponytail to celebrate), as was house-favorite Rooney Mara who wore a pleated baby pink slip dress from the designer with a choker to match. If this Chanel show is any indication of trends to come, you better start teasing your hair now because that giant beehive isn’t going to pouf itself.
