“We don’t have control over most of our work schedules, but we would like to walk ‘for’ something. Following in the footsteps of my friend @micarganaraz, I am pledging to donate my earnings from the Fall 2022 shows to aid those suffering from the war in Ukraine, as well as continuing to support those experiencing the same in Palestine.”

“Our eyes and hearts must be open to all human injustice. May we all see each other as brothers and sisters, beyond politics, beyond race, beyond religion. At the the end of the day, innocent lives pay for war- not leaders. HANDS OFF UKRAINE. HANDS OFF PALESTINE. PEACE. PEACE. PEACE,” Gigi wrote.
Just like many other people, Gigi Hadid has been heartbroken by the current war in Ukraine which has left many citizens homeless.

Many celebrities have spoken out against the atrocities in Ukraine. Demna, the creative director of Balenciaga, issued a statement in support of Ukraine during the brand’s Paris Fashion Week show on March 6.
He recalled his own experience as a refugee and revealed that he considered cancelling the show at one point but ultimately decided against it because he did not want to “give in” to the “evil” in the world.
