As the daughter of American actor Steven Baldwin, Hailey is certainly largely famous thanks to her surname. In recent years, it is not her family’s prestigious acting heritage that has caught the eyes of the fashion world, instead her talent on and off the camera has turned heads. You may also recognise Hailey from her brief fling with pop prince Justin Bieber back in 2015 (he was punching).
Her undeniable beauty and perfected millennial style has landed her campaigns with the likes of Adidas, Guess and Topshop. Often spotted hanging on the arms of BFF’s Kendall, GiGi and Bella, Hailey has definitely gained some insider top tips and tricks from the industry’s finest on how to strike a pose and glide down the runway. In addition to front covers for leading publications such as Marie Claire, Elle and Harper’s Bazaar, those infinite legs paired with her mesmerising eyes and lips have gained her much attention from the likes of Maxim, who in May of this year dubbed her ‘the most beautiful women in the world.’
Looks are one thing, but Hailey’s devotion to her faith is another, she frequently preaches kindness and posts inspiring and relevant chapters from the Bible to her 10.8 million followers. In a recent interview with InStyle UK, she shared her effortless staple style which can be reduced to well fitted jeans, a perfect white tee and a leather Jacket. When speaking to Vogue she also confessed to her obsession with leather jackets, wouldn’t we just like to have a peek at her collection…
Her work both behind the lens and on the runway gives me no reason to doubt that she will soon be donning her first pair of ‘angel wings’ and joining the Victoria Secret clan.
My prediction is that the future is bright for Baldwin.
