Lila Moss Brought Brit-Girl Energy To Vogue World: Paris

Vogue World: Paris saw the great and good of French fashion – and sport – converge on Place Vendôme tonight, for a one-off spectacle combining supermodels and cyclists, horses and haute couture, pop superstars and synchronised swimmers. From the ode to Paris’s traditional Course des Cafés waiters’ race, to the spine-tingling performance from French-Malian chanteuse Aya Nakamura, it was an undeniably Gallic affair – but talent came from all over the world to take part.

Representing the Brits? None other than legacy model Lila Moss, whose mum Kate so memorably performed in Vogue World: London at Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Where Kate wore a custom lamé dress created by long-time friend and collaborator John Galliano for last year’s event, inspired by an opening night in the West End, her daughter strode onto the runway in Paris tonight wearing a short white shift and dainty Mary-Janes.

Lila, 21, opened the 1960s section of the show, which had a fencing theme, wearing dramatic silver eye make-up crafted by Dame Pat McGrath, and an intricate helmet-like hairstyle fashioned from barrettes by Eugene Souleiman. Space age looks by Courrèges and Paco Rabanne evoked the decade when society – and fashion – took huge leaps forward, from the pill becoming widely available to the rise (and rise) of the miniskirt. Lila and her fellow models were joined on the runway by actor and musician Teyana Taylor, the maverick photographer Malick Bodian and the French politician Laura Flessel-Colovic, the former Minister for Sport.
