Gigi Hadid Hopes To Take Her Netflix Show To The Emmy Awards
US Dutch Palestinian model Gigi Hadid this week urged fans to vote for her Netflix show “Next in Fashion,” which she co-hosts alongside British TV personality Tan France, to win an Emmy Award.
“If you’re an Emmy voter and enjoyed @nextinfashion as much as we did making it, we would LOVE your vote in the Competition Category and Host Category, SO much,” the pair shared on Instagram in a collaborative post. “Voting ends in a week. Let’s get NIF to the Emmy’s.”
The 75th edition of the prestigious award will take place on September 19.
The show was released on March 3 and featured a group of 12 up-and-coming talents who competed in weekly design challenges to win $200,000 and a chance to debut their collection on the e-commerce platform Rent the Runway.
The promising designers included Amari Carter, Bao Tranchi, Courtney Smith, Danny Godoy, Deontre Hancock, Desyrée Nicole, Eliana Batsakis, James Ford, Megan O’Cain, Nigel Xavier, Qaysean Williams, and Usama Ishtay.
The season boasted an ensemble of fashion royalty appearing alongside France and Hadid as guest judges.
In the show, Hadid was seen alongside A-list guest stars, including her supermodel sister Bella Hadid, Italian designer Donatella Versace, US model Hailey Bieber, French fashion designer Olivier Rousteing, South African model Candice Swanepoel, “Emily in Paris” star Ashley Park, Danish model Helena Christensen and US internet personality Emma Chamberlain.
The lineup certainly supported the title’s authority on future trends in the industry.
The first season of the fashion competition show, which premiered in January 2020, featured 18 designers who faced weekly design challenges to win a $250,000 prize and a chance to have their collection sold on Net-a-Porter.
