After entering the spotlight in 2014 with a role in the movie Tusk at just fifteen, Lily-Rose Depp has been a regular in the front row of Chanel shows, film festivals, and red carpets around the globe. Depp has developed a style all her own, though she does have a striking preference for Chanel. She knew the late designer Karl Lagerfeld since she was a baby (her mother Vanessa Paradis was one of his foremost muses) and has been the face of the brand’s Chanel No.5 L’eau scent.
Since her debut, she’s had roles in Netflix’s The King alongside Timothée Chalamet and Robert Pattinson (she played the queen consort Catherine of Valois), as well as projects with noted auteurs like Nicholas Jarecki and Neil Burger. Depp starred in the much talked-about HBO series The Idol, alongside The Weekend, and waded into the horror genre with Robert Egger’s 2024 film Nosferatu—for the latter’s press tour, she went all-in on themed style with Victorian-esque looks. Depp is almost always outfitted in Chanel on the red carpet, taking a special liking to the brand’s classic LBDs and jaw-dropping couture creations.
