18-year-old Lily McMenamy has landed her first big-name designer campaign, for Marc Jacobs–and all she had to do was take off her top. (Kidding!)

Alexander Wang has girls’ bathroom privileges. At the Met Gala, Chanel Iman spilled on “the real party” that goes on in the ladies’ room where models, actresses, and Wang all take a bathroom break to catch up with each other. {New York Post}
Allison Williams says Christopher Abbott’s abrupt and show-changing exit from Girls will have “a huge effect…[on the character of] Marnie specifically.” And us! Don’t forget about us. {US Weekly}
Here comes the bride, all dressed in… red? A recent study has found that 24% of young brides are ditching white wedding dresses for brighter-colored frocks in red, pink, or blue. {Daily Mail}
“Kristen was a big problem with my brother at first; she was crazy!” recalls designer Donatella Versace in a new Style.com/Print profile of supermodel Kirsten McMenamy.
According to Versace, it was “like a war” anytime a new girl came on the scene, and when McMenamy arrived in the early ’90s, well, let’s just say we kinda wish fashion reality shows were around then.
Fashion month: It’s finally, truly over.
Challenging the notion that Marc Jacobs’s latest collection for Louis Vuitton–comprised largely of slips, playsuits and negligees–is only appropriate for the bedroom, several of the show’s top models took them out to the streets.
The most social media’d photo from last night’s Marc Jacobs show is easily of 18-year-old Lily McMenamy, supermodel Kristen McMenamy’s newbie model-daughter. Why? Well, she wasn’t wearing much of anything.
This marks McMenamy’s third ever runway show.
Instagram didn’t need a filter at Marc Jacobs. The first half of the runway show was lighted in a sepia tone, presumably so that the audience could focus on the details of the clothes. (The lights were taken up for the second half of the show–every model re-walked the circular runway so that we could see the looks in technicolor, too.)
It doesn’t matter which season, or whether or not we’re blown away by the clothes, Marc Jacobs is time and time again the most wonderful moment of New York Fashion Week. Falling on Valentine’s Day, it was the ultimate fashion love letter.
When your mom is supermodel Kristen McMenamy, it could be hard growing up in such a tall and legendary shadow. Not so for McMenamy’s 18-year-old daughter, Lily McMenamy, who moved to Paris and landed Saint Laurent (as we told you she would) and Chanel as her first ever runway shows. Not too shabby.
It seems 90s supermodel Kristen McMenamy‘s daughter Lily McMenamy is set to follow in her mother’s footsteps: Rumor has it the 18-year-old will make her runway debut during Paris Fashion Week–and we hear she’s even nabbed herself a big exclusive. Clearly, good looks (and serious cat walk skills) run in the family!
