When mother and daughter walk the catwalk together The most memorable couples ever at Fashion Week

There are mothers who for their daughter's eighteenth birthday gift the grandmother's heirloom ring, and others who instead directly pass on the ambassador contract with luxury brands. Nepotism has been talked about a lot in recent years, but in fashion as in entertainment, it's a practice that has been going on for longer than we can imagine. If today Kris Jenner has become an icon, after all, it's because she has turned her role as a "momager" into a real profession. What better moment than Mother's Day to remember the best moments shared between mothers and daughters on the runway? Even better, what better example to start from if not the image of Naomi Campbell and her mother Valerie Morris-Campbell at Thierry Mugler's SS94 show? Thirty years have passed, but it remains one of the sweetest images in the history of fashion nepotism. Even though, in that case, the roles were reversed.

Apart from the cases where Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner brought their daughters to the runway, respectively at Jean Paul Gaultier's FW22 show and at Valentino Haute Couture SS24, in recent years there have been several episodes where fashion has shifted the spotlight to mother-daughter pairs. From Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber, both established top models in the industry who have appeared together in several campaigns, to Kate Moss and Lila, both in Fendi on the red carpet at the Met Gala 2023, it seems very easy to pass on the "gene of success" in the fashion industry. Among the most recent Fashion Weeks, the appearance of Jerry Hall and Georgia May Jagger in the front row at the first show of Chloé's new creative director, Chemena Kamali, another descendant of the Rolling Stone lead singer who, like Jade, boasts an iconic mother, stands out.
