From Atonement to the Runway: Gigi Hadid’s Stunning Green Dress

Recently, Gigi Hadid rocked a green gown at the Victoria Beckham show, which gave us serious Keira Knightley in Atonement vibes. Stunning!

I don’t know if you’ve seen the movie Atonement—you know, the one with Keira Knightley, James McAvoy, and a very young Saoirse Ronan (oh, and let’s not forget Juno Temple and Benedict Cumberbatch making things uncomfortably spicy on the side)—but there’s this one scene. And by “scene,” I mean that library moment between Keira and James. Whew, is it getting hot in here, or is it just me? The temperature definitely spikes when that little rendezvous goes down.

But let’s be honest, beyond the steamy drama, the true star of that scene? It’s Keira Knightley’s jaw-dropping, iconic green dress. Even all these years later, fashionistas still obsess over it. The slinky satin, the perfect shade of emerald, the way it moves—it’s like a piece of art. Honestly, I don’t blame anyone who tries to recreate that level of cinematic magic with their own wardrobe.

Which brings me to Gigi Hadid. Did you catch her at the Victoria Beckham show recently? She strutted down the runway in a green dress so stunning that I had to do a double take because I swore it was a nod to Keira’s legendary Atonement gown. It had that same effortless, goddess-level energy. I almost fell off my couch. But of course, it’s Gigi, and she made it look like the dress was made for her.

Would I die to own that gown? Absolutely. Will I ever look as flawless in it as Gigi? Probably not. But hey, a girl can dream, right?
