The best mother-daughter moment.
During Haute Couture Week in June, Hollywood’s most notable families took to the front-row in matching moments galore. At the Balenciaga Fall/Winter 2024 show, for one, Naomi Watts, Nicole Kidman, and Maya Rudolph all brought their children to Demna’s latest presentation in the heart of Paris. And lucky for fashion enthusiasts, the family affair is continuing at Paris Fashion Week this season. On September 24, Kate Moss, and her daughter Lila both attended the Saint Laurent Spring/Summer 2025 in subtly coordinating sheer dresses, no less.
Before they took their seats in the courtyard of Saint Laurent's headquarters on Rue de Bellechasse, the Moss duo posed for photographers individually. Unfortunately, they weren’t seated together at Anthony Vaccarello’s outdoor show (Kate sat next to Zoë Kravitz), however, their matching attire suggests they still touched base beforehand. Kate was one of the first A-listers to arrive in an all-black outfit. The longtime Saint Laurent enthusiast turned heads in a velvet blazer adorned with sequin-embellished lapels. Underneath the velvet topper peeked a partially see-through tulle dress which flowed behind her as she walked. To no surprise, Kate rounded out her front-row ‘fit with an assortment of bling, starting with oversized gold bangles, statement hoop earrings, and a beaded black bag.
Just a few minutes later, Lila matched her mom’s sartorial energy in noir numbers galore. The burgeoning fashion muse went a sultrier route in an entirely sheer lace maxi dress, complete with a strappy triangle bodice, a sleek belt around her waist, and peek-a-boo underwear. Contrary to her mother’s late-night look, Lila opted out of any jewelry at all, and only accessorized with satin peep-toe pumps. The model made up for the lack of shine with striking smokey eyeshadow. On the red carpet, she didn’t carry a purse, but while she watched the show, she was photographed holding a geometric envelope-esque clutch.
Now that the mother-daughter duo is officially in Paris, keep an eye out for more joint appearances from the Moss crew in the coming days.
The resemblance is striking.
Lila Moss is making a strong case for the nepo baby. Society loves to hate on the genetically gifted for having professional advantages we lowly mortals could only dream of. And though it's tempting to say “they only got the job because if their parents,” when it comes to modeling, you can't deny genetics matter.
Take Lila, for example. The second-generation model inherited her mom Kate's multi-million dollar smile and magnetic presence in front of the camera. At 21 years old, Lila Moss looks almost identical to photos of her mother at the same age, with long blonde hair and a signature sultry gaze.
Their similarities were especially evident on Sept. 24, at Saint Laurent's recent Paris Fashion Week runway show, when the mother-daughter duo walked the same red carpet in almost the same outfit.
On Tuesday, the Mosses sat front row to watch Saint Laurent present its Spring 2025 collection, inspired by the wardrobe of its founder, Yves Saint Laurent. Lila was outfitted in black lace, wearing a transparent, spaghetti strap gown that showed off her matching underpinnings. She wrapped a leather belt around her waist and finished the boudoir-inspired look with a pair of criss-cross pumps in black satin.

Her eyes were smudged with a smokey charcoal pigment, while her hair hung down in grungy waves. With her mother's trademark hairstyle, the resemblance was truly striking.
The model looked just like her famous mom, with long blonde waves and a smokey eye.
Kate Moss, too, wore a sheer black look, only hers was constructed of velvet and tulle. While her daughter's look was daring and lingerie-inspired, Kate's was elegant and demure. She wore a crushed velvet blazer with a statement lapel, embellished with shimmering beadwork. The dress beneath was perhaps more revealing than Lila's, but felt modest, thanks to the jacket's hip-grazing hemline.
Glamour was the name of the game when it come to accessories, as well. The OG supermodel her styled her hair in a saucy slick-back, highlighting the massive rectangular statement earrings that dangled from her lobes. Her wrists also got the metallic treatment, each encased in thick golden bangles.

Kate Moss, meanwhile, wore a sheer gown of her own. She styled her tulle skirt with a velvet jacket.
Say what you will, but these two were born for the spotlight.
