Bella Hadid Poses Topless Behind A Polka Dot Louis Vuitton Bag For An Ad

For the campaign ad, the supermodel coyly covered the front of her chest with a massive Louis Vuitton bag, preventing her from violating Instagram’s Community Guidelines. The ad looks like something straight from Kusama’s artwork with Bella sprawled across the floor painting splotches into the air.

The campaign contained a couple of splashy videos showing Bella surrounded by colorful blobs of paint suspended in midair around her like bubbles. She weaved her modeling shots with a few quotes from Kusama. The artist has been honest about the way she leans on her art to cope with her mental health issues.

“If it were not for art, I would have killed myself a long time ago,” flew one line by Kusama, who has lived in a Tokyo insane asylum by choice since 1977. Another quote the supermodel cited from the artist declared: “Every time I have had a problem, I have confronted it with the ax of art.” Another went, “I have been struggling with mental illness and emptiness throughout my life. Now I want people to understand my glorious quest for the truth.” Kusama declared, “Working on paintings is a process toward my artistic creation. It is a new spiritual theme of my whole philosophy for pursuing the truth. Each painting represents a process in all of my art.”

She posted the new ad campaign on Instagram and gushed in her captions: “My first @louisvuitton campaign could not have been a better collaboration than @yayoikusama_ … not only am I the biggest fan, so intrigued with her story and life….but I connect with her deeply on healing mental struggles through artistic freedom and creation. I am so proud to do this campaign and hope that one day I will be able to embrace Miss Kusama, and tell her how important she is to not only me, but so many people struggling. Proud is the only word I have. Proud.”

Fans filled her comments with praise. One person wrote, “So worth the wait. You are a vision B!!” while another commented, “Beyond iconic!!” “I am so proud of you, you are amazing Belz you shine at all times,” with heart emojis. One commenter pointed out how important it was that Bella addressed her menthol health struggles, “Healing mental struggles through artistic expression and creative freedom is the most beautiful and effective thing. Purely soulful,” they wrote. We love to see it!

Bella Hadid Opens Up About Her Mental Health Struggles

Bella, whose mother Yolanda Hadid, 59, was also a model, said last year that she struggled with “eating disorders” when she was growing up. She told i-D, “Growing up, I thought it was normal that I had this chronic anxiety and this disassociation, crying every day and not knowing who I was.”

“Whether it was eating disorders or smoking a pack of Marlboros since the age of 14, I’m like: ‘Oh, this is what all of the kids are doing.’ I realized that maybe that was me trying to figure out why I felt that way. And in reality, all I needed was therapy,” she continued.

The 26-year-old shared that as a rising model, she continued to suffer from body dysmorphia, which affected the way she reacted to her fame. “During that part of my life, I was so out of [my] body, disassociating so much…I was so confused by what people saw of me,” she said. “I still, even now, see comments on Instagram when I’m sitting on the couch and am like: ‘Are they talking about me?’ I don’t understand how I’ve gotten to this point where people either appreciate my work or know who I am.” She told Vogue in 2022 that as a teenager she suffered from anorexia. Bella attributes her anorexia to the Adderall she was prescribed when she was younger for what was thought was ADHD.

Bella also revealed in the interview that she got a nose job when she was just 14 years old! Social media was upset with Yolanda for providing her daughter with cosmetic surgery at such a young age. Bella herself expressed regret about the procedure, saying: “I wish I had kept the nose of my ancestors. I think I would have grown into it.” Yolanda is from the Netherlands, while Gigi and Bella’s father Mohamed Hadid, 74, is a Palestinian who was born in Nazareth just months after the foundation of Israel.
