Privileged and proud: how nepo babies took fashion month by storm

Fashion month, which recently concluded, saw a significant trend emerge that transcended clothing: the undeniable takeover by 'nepo babies' – the children of celebrities. These individuals, often referred to as 'privileged and proud,' commanded catwalks and were prominent attendees alongside their famous parents, indicating a strong presence of celebrity offspring in high fashion. Notable examples include Ella Bleu Travolta, daughter of John Travolta, who debuted on the Paris catwalk for Miu Miu, and Apple Martin, daughter of Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow, who walked for Chloé. This phenomenon, observed across major fashion hubs like New York, London, Milan, and Paris, highlights how celebrity lineage has become a dominant force and a major talking point in the fashion industry, overshadowing even specific clothing trends like knee-length skirts and bras worn as tops.
