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, and has been the face of the brand’s Chanel No.5 L’eau scent after all).

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 is set to star in the highly anticipated HBO series The Idol, alongside Abel Tesfaye (formerly The Weekend, who also co-created the series), Jennie of BLACKPINK, Troye Sivan, Dan Levy, and more. She plays the role of Jocelyn, an uber-famous pop star and the series’ main protagonist. All of which is to say, there’s a lot to look forward to—including many more scintillating red carpet appearances. Here are Lily-Rose Depp’s best looks so far.
