Apple Martin has stepped onto a Paris runway for the first time.
The 22-year-old daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow, 52, and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, 48, made her fashion-week debut Thursday morning at the Chloé show, where she closed out the presentation in a long white eyelet dress with balloon sleeves, ruffle trim, an exaggerated collar and a button-front silhouette. She paired the look with teetering sky-high wood platform heels.
Paltrow stayed away from the venue so her daughter could claim the spotlight alone, watching the moment from a distance instead.
The Chloé casting follows a summer campaign Martin shot for the French house, images that featured her in loose, bronzed eyelet sets on the beach. The runway look she wore Thursday echoed that same breezy, eyelet-heavy aesthetic.
Martin has been building her modeling portfolio steadily. She joined her mother in a GapStudio campaign, was named the face of British label Self-Portrait and landed a solo spread in Vogue.
The Vanderbilt graduate has been open about the unusual circumstances of her upbringing. Speaking to the Telegraph in October 2025, she addressed her privileged childhood directly.
“I know this is not a normal way to grow up by any means,” she said.
She continued, “My parents did a really good job of instilling in me that I shouldn’t be entitled to anything … I have to work.”
That work ethic has translated into a string of bookings that have moved her beyond the “nepo baby” label critics often attach to children of famous parents. The Chloé runway appearance marks her most high-profile fashion moment to date.
The Paris Fashion Week schedule continues with remaining shows through early March.
