To attend the opening of the annual exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London on June 6th, young model Lila Moss opted for a look that seemed borrowed from her mother's wardrobe.
With blonde hair tucked behind her ears, a rebellious gaze, and full lips, one could have mistaken Tuesday's appearance at the prestigious Burlington House for a sighting of "La Brindille" (a nickname given for Kate Moss). There is no doubt that Lila Moss is indeed the daughter of the English supermodel. The 20-year-old posed for the cameras alongside her childhood friend Stella Jones before visiting the Summer Exhibition, the annual summer exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. While she resembles her mother more than ever, the dress she wore only accentuated their similarities. Lila Moss had chosen a long black slip dress, called such because it can be effortlessly slipped on.
The young woman is often seen wearing this type of dress, from London to Ibiza, and even on the catwalks. In March 2023, she made a sensation during Paris Fashion Week as she walked down the runway in a white slip dress for Chloé's Fall-Winter 2023-2024 collection. And now, with a hot summer ahead, these dresses are back in the spotlight, with Kate Moss being the expert since the 1990s.
The English supermodel has never tired of these thin-strapped dresses, flowing down to the floor and revealing the shoulders. And she has been wearing them for over thirty years. In 1993, at the age of 19, Kate Moss appeared at a party hosted by her agency, Elite Models Management, wearing a dress by Liza Bruce. Transparent, it exposed the young woman's black thong and almost-nudity under the flashes of cameras. The image went around the world and stirred up a frenzy. Over the following years, Kate Moss never abandoned this type of dress. At this year's MET Gala, she once again wore a white satin and lace slip dress, alongside her daughter Lila Moss, who is certainly following in her footsteps.
