Lily-Rose Depp is paying tribute to one of the world’s most iconic supermodels — who just so happens to be her father’s ex-girlfriend.
Johnny Depp’s 23-year-old daughter covers i-D magazine’s spring issue topless in a pair of Chanel jeans, and as part of her spread, she posed in a ’90s-style sheer dress strikingly similar to the one Kate Moss wore to an Elite Model Agency party in London in 1993.
Like Kate, the “Idol” actress went bra-free and wore a pair of black undies beneath the daring slip style, even holding a cigarette to drive the point home.
“Any reason why she’s dressed identically to her dad’s ex girlfriend in 1993? 😑,” one person commented on i-D’s Instagram post of Lily-Rose’s look, while another wrote, “the clothes, styling, the poses, all and everything is Kate inspired, no?”
While Kate’s dress was designed by Liza Bruce, Lily-Rose’s was made by Martin Keehn.
Johnny and Kate famously dated from 1994 to 1998; just last year, the mega-model testified in her ex’s libel trial against his ex-wife Amber Heard, while Lily-Rose kept quiet, later defending her decision by saying, “I feel really entitled to my secret garden of thoughts.”
The “Pirates of the Caribbean” actor shares Lily-Rose and son Jack, 20, with ex-girlfriend Vanessa Paradis, whom he dated for 14 years before the longtime loves called it quits in 2012.
Lily-Rose gushed about her mom in the accompanying interview, telling i-D, “Whenever I see old photos of her, I’m like, ‘Ugh. That’s what I look like in my dreams.’ She’ll send me photos of her when she was younger, and say things like, ‘We’re twins.’ And I’m like, ‘You’re so much prettier than me.’ She’s so beautiful.”
The model — who, like her mother, is a Chanel ambassador — also discussed the current “nepo baby” discourse, having previously taken flak for dismissing her famous parents’ impact on her own career.

“I’m so careful about these conversations now. I feel like my parents did the best job that they possibly could at giving me the most ‘normal childhood’ that they could. And obviously, that still was not a normal childhood. I’m super aware of the fact that my childhood did not look like everybody’s,” she said.
“But at the same time, it’s all that I know, so I have had to find comfort in it somehow. I’m really lucky that I’ve been surrounded by people who value normalcy and who value real life and I think that’s the only way to exist in this world and not go insane.”
