The 18-year-old daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin stepped out during Chanel’s haute couture show at Paris Fashion Week on Monday.
Sitting front row for the star-studded fashion affair, Apple was outfitted in signature Chanel — a black-and-white checked dress-and-blazer ensemble — sitting alongside Lucy Boynton and Sadie Sink, who were also decked out in Chanel. Elvis director Baz Lurhmann was also in attendance.
Fashion journalist and TV personality Derek Blasberg highlighted Apple’s night on Instagram, posting some behind-the-scenes shots of the teenager and a caption that paid tribute to the late Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld, who saw Martin’s fashionista potential long ago.
“Karl Lagerfeld met Apple Martin when she was 4 years old and declared that one day she’d be a Chanel girl. It happened today!” the Fashion Week mainstay, 40, wrote of Lagerfeld’s prediction coming to fruition. (This year’s Met Gala pays tribute to Lagerfeld’s legacy – so perhaps we’ll see Martin make her debut on the famous stairs?)
Apple, who once teased her health-guru mom that she has been “on a cleanse since the day she was born,” has already been known to have her own style, according to Paltrow, who shared last year that Apple “does not want my advice whatsoever on anything” when she buys clothes, though she has also stated that her daughter “borrows from [her] closet.”
The stylish mother and daughter were last spotted together while power shopping together in New York City in November.
Paltrow, 50, had shared photos on her Instagram Story of her and her daughter after a “couple of days” in the city Apple has called home since starting college this fall.
Fashion journalist Derek Blasberg commented on Apple’s now viral Chanel appearance on Twitter.
“Karl Lagerfeld met Apple Martin when she was 4 years old and declared that one day she’d be a Chanel girl,” he wrote, captioning behind-the-scenes photos of Apple at the show. “It happened today!”
For some fans, Apple’s appearance might bear a striking resemblance to her mom, from their tall statures to their near-identical smizes.
She posed in a series of photos for Blasberg, switching her expressions between a big smile and slight pout, appearing ready for the runway.
Out at dinner that night, Blasberg, who referred to himself as a “proud Guncle” witnessing Apple’s fashion debut, snapped a shot of her posing sweetly with an apple pastry and captioned it “this little tarte tatin.”
Paltrow is known for singing her daughter’s praises on social media. Last year, the Goop mogul even dedicated an International Women’s Day tribute to the teen.
“I’ve been spending the morning thinking about all of the incredible women I love, who love me back hard. I keep thinking about the women I have known since kindergarten or 7th grade, who are more strongly in my life than almost ever. But today I want to pay tribute to one (technically almost) woman on the cusp of it,” she wrote, captioning a screenshot of the two on FaceTime together. “This woman gives me hope for the future of sisterhood, and for the future of our planet. And this woman has made me the woman I am today more than anyone else.”
