Regardless, it’s great to see mother and daughter connecting over an invaluable piece of fashion history embedded with pop culture significance. Like her mother, Apple Martin is fast becoming an It girl—earlier this year, she attended Chanel’s haute couture show as a special guest, clad in a black and white tweed suit by the house. “The Chanel couture show was my first fashion experience, and I am so incredibly grateful to Chanel and their incredible team for having me,” Martin, the daughter of Paltrow and her ex husband Chris Martin, told Vogue at the time. The access to archival hands me downs is certainly one of the perks of being the child of celebrity. Salma Hayek’s daughter, Valentina, borrowed her mother’s 1997 Isaac Mizrahi gown for the 2023 Oscars. While Heidi Klum’s daughter, Leni, wore a 1998 dress worn by the supermodel to prom.
And for what it’s worth, Paltrow seems to have come around to her McQueen look in more recent years. In a 2021 interview with Vogue, the star expressed her continuing love for the one of a kind creation. “Everybody really hated this [dress] … but I think it’s kind of dope. I’m into it,” she said. “I had a weird hangover about it for a while because people were really critical. I think at the time it was too goth, I think people thought it was too hard, so I think it sort of shocked people. But I like it.” Hopefully next Martin will take one of her mom’s archival outfits out for a spin. The Gucci red suit, perhaps? During the annual Governors Ball Music Festival in New York earlier this month, Lizzo took to the stage in a sculptural silver dress with a 3D neckline and form fitting skirt made by the Indian couturier designer Gaurav Gupta. The singer is not the only star to rock his designs this year. Cardi B wore a blue dress by Gupta at the 2023 Grammys, as did Wednesday star Jenna Ortega when she hosted Saturday Night Live in March—and it’s all no coincidence.
