How Matty Healy’s Fiancé Gabriette Betchel Has Impacted the Fashion Scene
Matty Healy pops the question to Gabriette Betchel, style influencer.
Recently, news has broken that our favorite British band boy, the 1975’s Matty Healy, has finally found his person in Gabriette Betchel, and popped the question with a huge black rock encrusted in diamonds – a rockstar-appropriate, edgy take on a traditional diamond ring.
But enough on Matty, let’s talk about how he absolutely hit the jackpot when it comes the woman on his arm. Over the last year model and social media IT girl Gabriette Betchel has become the ultimate internet cool girl, so much so that she’s set a whole trend based around her dark feminine aesthetic, and had countless people recreating her look, and even going as far as copying.
Gabriette aesthetic is based around the Bayonetta “librarian” style. The typical Bayonetta style aims to look sexy and intelligent, elevated 00’s office wear, sexy rectangle glasses, and general dark feminine energy - think Gisele Bündchen in Devil Wears Prada. A balance of aloof, revealing, fun and untouchable – this aesthetic is the definition of the Black Cat girl.
“Life would be boring if we didn’t have [quirks and passion],” Bechtel was reported saying. “I would go to school one day with red lipstick and a fur coat and the next with black eyeliner and striped tops, until I found what worked,” she continues. “I think it’s important to surround yourself with people who challenge and inspire you. For me it’s my mum, my sister, my friends. And hot, rock chick icons.”
Alongside her cool girl style, Gabriette also has a toe dipped into the culinary world, whipping up the most interesting eats on her TikTok, almost like the “edgy” version of Nara Smith – making her appear even more interesting and cool.
