It’s been a very busy few weeks for Lila Moss. In mid-January, the 21-year-old daughter of Kate Moss staged an appearance at her mother’s 50th birthday dressed up as, well, her mother. And since then, she’s also shared her pre-Fashion Month beauty routine and “cosigned” the return of skinny jeans. (And thank GOD for that; we’ve all been waiting for years, skinny jeans hanging sadly in our closets, for that specific sign-off.)
This week, however, ushered in what might be the crowning moment of Lila’s career: Somehow, she’s managed to sneak her way into British Vogue’s “Legendary!” cover alongside superstars like Jane Fonda, Oprah Winfrey, and Victoria Beckham. Look closely, and there she is, right behind three-time Grammy winner Dua Lipa.
At the risk of being rude, how exactly do we think this happened? Maybe British Vogue’s outgoing editor-in-chief, Edward Enninful, caught wind of Lila’s brave endorsement of skinny jeans and simply had to give her a call. Or, perhaps, Lila’s presence here has a little something to do with the fact that her mother is also on the cover.
