Gigi Hadid is pulling back the curtain on one of her most dramatic looks.

During a Tuesday, April 8 appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the model, 29, revealed that her recent silver hair transformation wasn't as permanent as it looked.

"It was a wig," Hadid told host Jimmy Fallon when he showed the audience a photo of her silver locks at Le Grand Dîner du Louvre in Paris in March. "It's so fun, like I get to do fun stuff."

"Everyone was freaking out," she added.

The Guest in Residence founder further explained the style, saying, "That night, it was two Moschino dresses that had been like Frankenstein'ed together for this special thing at the Louvre and sometimes you just have to go there with the whole thing."

The model also said she "had fun with the silver hair."

During her appearance on the show, Hadid was back to her usual darker golden locks, which she wore pulled back into a sleek bun with a strand framing her face.

This bold new look marked a shift from Hadid's previous darker, golden blonde hair, which she sported for several months before the Louvre event, including during her hosting of the Vogue World: Paris afterparty in June 2024 and her runway appearance for Vetements at Paris Fashion Week last September.

The silver color was courtesy of Dimitris Giannetos, hairstylist to the stars who has worked with Joey King, Rita Ora, Shania Twain, Dixie D'Amelio, Shay Mitchell, Megan Fox and Demi Moore.

At the fundraising gala honoring the Louvre Museum's exhibit "Louvre Couture: Art and Fashion — Statement Pieces," Hadid wore a dazzling silver and gold gown crafted from three Moschino dresses stitched together, according to WWD.

The floor-length gown had an asymmetrical pattern that matched the colors of Hadid's silver and gold jewelry from Lili Claspe, Ritique, Grown Brilliance, Lionheart and LÖF.

On The Tonight Show, Hadid also shared details of a recent outing with her daughter Khai, 4, at Medieval Times in New Jersey. The model said that her toddler, whom she shares with singer Zayn Malik, was enthralled with the performance.

"Khai got very into it," she told Fallon. "You can make kids a hundred different things in a week, and we get there and why is her favorite chicken the one at Medieval Times? She ate so much chicken!"

"The night before, I'm like, 'Khai, these things are really cool. I think we have to dress up, like let's go on YouTube and see what Medieval Times is,' " Hadid continued. "I didn't know if she'd be nervous about the swords and stuff. She was not nervous, by the way. She was rocking on. I didn't show up in like something crazy. I was cool. She went princess vibes, [and] I'm like the princess' keeper of hand sanitizer, wipes and crayons."
