[Bella Hadid](https://time.com/4672095/bella-hadid-cries-new-york-fashion-week/ "undefined") is as good as she is beautiful. In a moment like now, when an industry is struggling to stay culturally relevant and inclusive, putting a single name and face to it would be near impossible. If anyone comes close, it’s [Bella Hadid](https://time.com/4591784/2016-victorias-secret-show-gigi-hadid-bella-hadid-emotional/ "undefined"). Behind that chiseled face, radiating from within her physical being, shines a lightness and vulnerability that she shares openly with nearly 60 million followers on Instagram. After nearly 10 years in the business, with no signs of slowing down, [Bella opened or closed](https://time.com/6239226/biggest-fashion-moments-2022/ "undefined") major spring-summer collections everywhere from New York City to Paris. Within this new generation that has limitless potential to create positive change in the world, Bella holds unique power. I am rooting for her, for the possibilities that lie ahead, and for all that is good and beautiful. _Turlington Burns is the founder of Every Mother Counts_ ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Article","@id":"https://time.com/collections/100-most-influential-people-2023/6269992/bella-hadid/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/collections/100-most-influential-people-2023/6269992/bella-hadid/"},"headline":"Bella Hadid","datePublished":"2023-04-13T10:32:59.000Z","dateModified":"2026-07-21T07:22:05.039Z","description":"","url":"https://time.com/collections/100-most-influential-people-2023/6269992/bella-hadid/","keywords":["TIME 100","franchise","sponsorshipblock","TIME100 2023","T100Pioneers2023"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbf38b2c240cad263/698a3bfa47ca3867ca3baada/bella-hadid-time100-2023-1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Christy Turlington Burns","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/christy-turlington-burns/"}],"creator":"Christy Turlington Burns","articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbf38b2c240cad263/698a3bfa47ca3867ca3baada/bella-hadid-time100-2023-1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/collections/100-most-influential-people-2023/6269992/bella-hadid/","name":"Bella Hadid"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"TIME100 | The 100 Most Influential People of 2023","description":"See all the people on Time's 2023 Time 100 list","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/P6RIsapV/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2023-04-13T10:30:00.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/P6RIsapV.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/collections/100-most-influential-people-2023/6269992/bella-hadid/","duration":"PT1M53S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/collections/100-most-influential-people-2023/6269992/bella-hadid/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
