Move over Gigi! Bella Hadid flaunts her trim and toned physique in revealing lace jumpsuit as she stars in stunning new fashion shoot
- Bella, 18, is the younger sister of Guess campaign star Gigi Hadid, 19
- The rising star poses in a series of provocative outfits for the May issue of Elle

Gigi Hadid's younger sister Bella Hadid is quickly catching up with her star sibling's phenomenal fashion success, carving out an impressive career for herself within the industry.
The 18-year-old, who is just 18 months younger than blonde bombshell Gigi, 19, stars in a powerful and provocative new shoot featured in the May issue of Elle magazine, which sees her modeling a series of risque and revealing ensembles.
In one image, the dark-haired beauty poses in a sheer Fleur du Mal lace bodysuit, with her arms thrown casually above her head.

In the know: Bella is fast making a name for herself as one of the hottest young talents in the fashion industry
While her cheekbones are heavily contoured, Bella otherwise wears very little make-up, and has her dark hair flowing loose around her shoulders.
A second image sees the fashion star leaning against a stool while wearing a high-waisted pleated black skirt and a sheer, striped high-necked top. She completes the outfit with a pair of slinky fishnet tights and a black leather belt.
And far from the stick-thin frames many might be used to seeing on the runways at Fashion Week, Bella shows off a refreshingly healthy figure, happily showcasing her curves in the revealing ensembles, and looking every inch the high-end fashion star.
Described by Elle as an 'on-the-rise' model with a 'fascinating frame', it seems evident that her star is set to rise just as high as her famous sibling's.
Straight face: Bella is quickly following in her sister's footsteps up the fashion industry ladder thanks to her striking looks
Opposites: While Gigi is known for her bright blonde hair, younger Hadid sister Bella favors a much darker look, which she showcases in her Elle shoot
Earlier this week, Gigi was revealed as one of the lucky few to feature on People magazine's list of the World's Most Beautiful, which is due to be published in full later this month, and the model also boasts campaigns for the likes of Maybelline, Guess, and Seafolly.
The daughter of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Yolanda Foster has also strutted her stuff on the catwalk for a host of major fashion labels, including Michael Kors and Tommy Hilfiger, as well as making numerous appearances alongside her sister in the hit reality series, which is credited with catapulting both of the girls into the limelight.
Bella, meanwhile, walked alongside her sister in the Tom Ford fall/winter 2015 show, and was recently named as the face of Botkier's spring campaign.
She is joined in the pages of May's Elle issue by fellow fashion star Hailey Baldwin, who in an interview with the publication revealed that she used to spend nights sleeping over at Kim Kardashian’s apartment, before she found fame herself.

Reality stars: Both siblings have made several appearances in the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alongside their mother, Yolanda Foster
The 18-year-old daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin, who is close friend with Kendall Jenner, let slip very discreetly that she often spent nights with ‘one of her friends’ – meaning Kendall – in their ‘sister’s apartment’ – meaning Kim’s multi-million-dollar residence, while she was traveling to castings in New York at the start of her career.
'I would basically pack a suitcase from home and just come live with her for a week,' she said.
But since the days of crashing at Kim’s sprawling home, Hailey has quickly gone on to become a star in her own right.
She currently boasts more than 1.3 million Instagram followers, has walked in numerous Fashion Week shows all over the globe, and was recently named as the new face of Topshop Denim.
Fancy friends: Model Hailey Baldwin also appears in the publication, revealing that she used to sleep over at Kim Kardashian's house when she was working in New York
'She’s got that twinkle in her eye,' Topshop creative director Kate Phelan told Elle, while comparing Hailey to supermodel Cara Delevingne.
Kate also recalls how, the first time she met Hailey, she was struck by the star's social media influence; when Kate went home to tell her teenage daughter about the meeting, she said she already knew - because Hailey had posted about it online.
Indeed, as the magazine points out, it is not just Hailey’s beautiful physical features that have helped to catapult her to the top of the fashion industry ladder, but also her impressively formidable social media presence, which makes her an appealing asset to fashion brands eager to capitalize on her popularity.
