Hanne Gaby Odiele (born on 8 October 1987) is the Belgian model and outspoken intersex advocate whose fearless individuality and editorial magnetism have made her a favourite among avant-garde designers and high-fashion insiders. Discovered at a music festival and quickly launched into runway royalty, she’s walked for the likes of Balenciaga, Givenchy, and Marc Jacobs, while appearing in campaigns for Maison Margiela, Dries Van Noten, and more. Beyond her work in fashion, Hanne has become a powerful voice for intersex visibility, using her platform to advocate for bodily autonomy and progressive change.

Her personal style is unapologetically eclectic and joyfully chaotic—mixing deconstructed tailoring, neon accents, vintage denim, and couture-level texture with effortless confidence. Her eyewear is an extension of that anarchic elegance: geometric shields, retro-futurist wraparounds, and playfully angular cat-eyes are all part of her visual vocabulary. She leans into statement pieces from brands like Givenchy, Michael Kors, and Linda Farrow, often layering her looks with irony, colour, and fearless silhouette. Whether front row or street style icon, Hanne Gaby Odiele’s sunglasses are never just eyewear—they’re anti-uniform, maximalist punctuation marks to an already electrifying presence.
