Kate Moss’ daughter proved her famous mother’s genes are strong as she channelled the fashion icon during her own photoshoot.
Lila, 22, is Kate’s only daughter, born in September 2002 to the runway star and her now ex-partner, Dazed & Confused editor Jefferson Hack. The couple split shortly after she was born.
As she’s grown up, Lila has followed in Kate’s footsteps, having appeared on the cover of Vogue Italia and modelled for the likes of Marc Jacobs Beauty.
She’s also walked the carpet of the Met Gala alongside her mum and made her runway debut by opening and closing Miu Miu’s SS21 show.
This week, the rising star bore an uncanny resemblance to Kate as she shot a DKNY ad on Wednesday.
Captured in the streets of New York City, the natural beauty modelled a series of chic looks, including a black blazer, denim jeans, and sweater combo.

For a slightly edgier ensemble, Lila changed into a vibrant yellow jacket, teamed with a sporty black dress and baseball cap.
She wore her long locks in loose waves, again replicating the signature style of Kate in her prime.
Clearly loving life on set, the model couldn’t hide her smile as she had her hair and makeup touched up.
The snaps are especially reminiscent of Kate’s 2002 Rimmel London ad, in which she strutted her stuff around the capital, aged 28 at the time.
Now 50, the supermodel is still booked and busy, having just recently posed for Yves Saint Laurent’s latest campaign.
The photoshoot saw Kate adopt a racy look as she wore a sheer top without anything underneath.
It comes after she spoke about her early days as a model, including how posing naked as a teenager emotionally scarred her.
Kate, who was scouted at a New York airport at 14, posed in a cover shoot for The Face magazine in 1990, photographed by the late Corinne Day.

Speaking this month about the shoot she did at just 15, she told the Fashion Neurosis with Bella Freud podcast: ‘I still, even after that shoot, I did cry a lot about taking my clothes off with her [Day].
‘I really didn’t want to do it.’
She added: ‘At the time, it was me, Corinne, Drew Jarett, the hairdresser, and Dick Page, the make-up artist. So I would make Drew turn around because he was straight and I was, like, “I’m not having him look at me.” I was really shy.
‘I was 15 and topless in a magazine, and I was still in school. Luckily, The Face wasn’t sold in Croydon, so I don’t think anyone really saw it, but they heard about it.’
Despite such traumatic and ‘painful’ memories, Kate has also praised the fashion industry for supporting her through tough times.
Alluding to backlash she received in 2005, Kate said: ‘When I had a bit of scandal, I had so much support from people in the fashion business.
‘[As] soon as I was able to get back to work, I got booked by everybody. They were, like, “No we’re not going to let them cancel you”.’
At the time photos of Kate claimed to depict her snorting drugs at a studio where her then-boyfriend Pete Doherty was performing.

She was branded ‘Cocaine Kate’ and, instantly, began losing her sponsorships, including her £1million contract with H&M, before admitting herself to rehab.
Having previously been declared one of the world’s highest-paid models, Kate retired from the runway in 2004.
She then established her own wellness brand called Cosmoss.
Last year, she and daughter Lila appeared in British Vogue together and spoke about their bond.
‘I don’t know that my mum expected me to go into fashion, really – I’m quite shy, like her – but she’s fully supported every decision I’ve made,’ said the nepo baby.
‘She hasn’t helped me with my walk, though. She’s like, “You just have to feel it. I don’t know what I do. I just do it!” I’m like, “Cool – off to practise some more, then…”‘
