Heidi Klum and daughter Lou Samuel attend Paris Fashion Week

Heidi Klum and her youngest daughter, Lou Samuel, have made a series of high-profile appearances during Paris Fashion Week. The 16-year-old Lou, who shares her mother with singer Seal, made her debut at the event, attending several shows including Vivienne Westwood and an Audemars Piguet party. Klum described the trip as an early birthday present for Lou, who turns 17 on October 9.

During the festivities, Lou drew significant attention for her bold fashion choices, including an acid-wash denim miniskirt with floral platform heels at the Vivienne Westwood Spring/Summer 2027 show and an asymmetrical white minidress at the BoF500 Gala. Klum also returned to the runway, closing the Ottolinger show in a deconstructed ensemble featuring a plunging nude corset.

The Vivienne Westwood presentation, led by Andreas Kronthaler, featured a collection titled ‘Body & Soul’ and utilized audio snippets of the late Dame Vivienne Westwood to set a manifesto-like tone for the avant-garde designs.
