Looking at them next to each other, they seem to be sisters, but in fact they are Bianca Balti with daughter Matilda Lucidithe eldest daughter of a top model from Lodi born in 2007 from a relationship with Christian Lucidi and front row for the first time with mom at Paris Fashion Week. A 15-year-old girl who has been living with her father in Paris since childhood after her parents divorced. he never attended a fashion show for that when it came to accompany your mom to the Off-White fashion showwithout hesitation and accepted with enthusiasm. A flawless debut for a teenager who has yet to debut with a brand but dreams of a future in fashion.
Despite the obvious emotions, Matilda looked at ease in a bright blue mini dress, paired with a pair of trainers from the Milanese brand founded by Virgil Abloh to match Bianchi’s glasses. Long brown hair, dark eyes, beautiful and very tall – without heels she is almost the same height as her mother, she admitted to the cameras of her colleagues Fashion Courier who reproached her for not sleeping well due to debut anxiety: “Woke up at 6.30, couldn’t sleep.” And to the fateful question: “When is the podium?” the girl promptly replies: “Soon.” But it is the supermodel who dictates the agenda to her daughter: “Mom decided on the catwalk in the near future, but not soon. Maybe when she’s 18,” explains the supermodel, who doesn’t lose sight of her “little girl” and holds her in her arms. in his hands. “Yes,” the girl confirms, based on the experience of her mother, who made her debut at 21 for Dolce & Gabbana.
No scene to burn, Matilda take your time. Bianchi has very clear ideas about the future of her daughter, whose entry into the fashion system will occur gradually, without jerks and too premature debuts. For the supermodel, who has experienced what it’s like to live a dysfunctional lifestyle between nights of excess and substance abuse — for these reasons, the then-little girl chose to move to Paris rather than stay with her mother in California, as she herself said in her new podcast — important save Matilda from premature debuts. Therefore, he will do everything to keep a close eye on her growth and likely career in fashion. On the other hand, Matilda will be able to count on the enviable mentorship of a professional like Bianca, who will certainly be able to guide her to a better choice. Looking forward to seeing mother and daughter together on the catwalk, like Heidi Klum and her daughter Leni in the recent Intimissimi campaign, or like Lila Moss and mother Kate on the Fendi Haute Couture runway in January 2021. Let’s enjoy the joy of meeting Matilda for the first time, the promising, forgetful child of the fashion system.
