There's been a lot of talk about 'nepo babies,' and the industry issues they represent. However, when it comes to Ella Emhoff, we can't help but obsess over her grip on the current fashionscape. The student-turned-runway star, who just so happens to be the stepdaughter of Vice President Kamala Harris, has been a prominent face during New York Fashion Week, and for good reason.
On Tuesday, Ella attended the Thom Browne Fall/Winter 2023 show on day five of New York Fashion Week. For the star-studded occasion, which welcomed the likes of Queen Latifah, Penn Badgley, Anna Wintour, and Tommy Dorfman through its doors, Ella suited up in a charcoal pinstripe skirt set - a style that has become synonymous with the American brand's legacy.
