9 Best Celebrity Cameos to Grace the Runway
Take a look at some of pop culture's favourite icons who have strutted down the runways.
When we think of runway shows, we think of the supermodels that walk down them. From icons like Kate Moss to Bella Hadid, models are the celebrities of fashion shows. However, some of your favourite celebrities have walked down fashion's top runways too. L'Officiel embraces the combined star power of fashion and celebs by remembering some of the best celebrity runway cameos from over the years.
Jeff Goldblum for Prada Fall/Winter 2022
Looking fabulous in a fur-trimmed trench coat, Jeff Goldblum closed the Prada Men's Fall/Winter 2022 show in Milan. This cameo broke the internet and had Goldblum fans going wild.
Grace Jones for Alaïa Spring/Summer 1986 Haute Couture
One of pop culture's most fashionable icons, Grace Jones made history walking the Spring/Summer 1986 Haute Couture show for Alaïa. Wearing an amazing fuchsia glittery dress, the model, singer, songwriter, and actress, Jones took over the show and made fashion history.
Rihanna for Dsquared2 Spring/Summer 2008
Before she was walking down the runway for Savage X Fenty, Rihanna made her modelling debut for Dsquared2. Wearing a lingerie-inspired, asymmetrical black dress, the singer walked the Spring/Summer 2008 show for the brand. Now, Rihanna has walked for her own company, Savage X Fenty, for the Fenty X Puma collaboration show.
Jennifer Lopez for Versace Spring/Summer 2020
In 2000, Jennifer Lopez made history by wearing a green Versace dress to the Grammy Awards. This dress was the birth of Google Images and has been a major source of outfit inspiration ever since. 20 years later, at the Spring/Summer 2020 runway show, the pop star walked down the runway in a new version of the iconic "Jungle Dress." Few can say they've broken the internet twice, but Lopez certainly did with these two looks.
Kylie Jenner for Yeezy Season 1
Kylie Jenner made her New York Fashion Week debut modelling for Kanye West's Yeezy Season 1 collection. While having walked runway shows in her youth, the pop culture icon didn't stick to the profession, unlike her sister Kendall. Kylie was the only one out of the Kardashian/Jenner clan to model for the show, and many wondered if this would be the start of her own modelling career. Unfortunately, Jenner did not return to the runways but continues to model for personal projects like her company Kylie Cosmetics.
Miley Cyrus for Marc Jacobs Fall/Winter 2020
Serving a major rockstar look in a black bra top, leather gloves, and black suit trousers, Miley Cyrus made her runway debut for Marc Jacobs Fall/Winter 2020. After collaborating with the brand for a promotional hoodie with her foundation Happy Hippie, Cyrus walked alongside models Bella Hadid and Liya Kebede for the show.
Whoopi Goldberg for Opening Ceremony Spring/Summer 2017
Whoopi Goldberg is one of America's favourite actresses. From entertaining us with the Sister Act films to making our hearts ache with 'The Color Purple', Goldberg has served as an influence to pop culture. For the Spring/Summer 2017 collection, Opening Ceremony enlisted Goldberg as one of their models. The show sparked conversations about political injustices, such as immigration, police brutality, and economic inequality. Goldberg used the show as a vessel to encourage people to vote, saying, "You should vote because if you don’t, you can’t bitch."
Madonna for Jean Paul Gaultier Spring/Summer 1995
Pushing a baby stroller with a white poodle in it, Madonna made news closing the Spring/Summer 1995 show for Jean Paul Gaultier. Wearing a white wedding dress, the singer made headlines with this iconic look. Now, this show and Madonna's look serve as outfit inspirations for countless '90s grunge Pinterest boards.
Dua Lipa for Versace Spring/Summer 2022
If there's one thing Donatella Versace knows how to do, it's to hold a runway show that'll continue to be talked about years later. For the Spring/Summer 2022 show, pop sensation Dua Lipa walked down the Versace runway in two amazing outfits. She opened the show in a black blazer dress adorned with colourful safety pins and closed the event in a fabulous metallic pink dress. As a face and lover of the brand, Lipa fit right in with the rest of the Versace models.
