If the movements of Lea De Seine Shayk Cooper, Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk’s daughter, are to be believed, the typical life of a six-year-old New Yorker and nepo baby is as follows.
Wake up, presumably by your Academy Award winner father’s new supermodel girlfriend. Rifle through your mother’s ludicrously capacious Hermès Birkin for a bottle of Chanel Le Vernis to paint your nails with. Pick out your best party dress and prepare to make your public debut for said father’s new Oscar-bait film. A movie in which you have a billing role, of course.
It’s a tough life being the offspring of the rich and famous. But little Lea is demonstrating she can manage at all. And in style, too.
Cooper and Shayk have kept their daughter out of the spotlight—and paparazzi’s peering lenses—since her birth in 2015. But on the red carpet for Cooper’s sophomore directorial film, Maestro, the preschooler proved she inherited the supernova gene. A star is born, indeed.
Joining her co-stars, including Carey Mulligan and Maya Hawke, the 6-year-old posed with Cooper in front of the step and repeat.
Though we usually wait till midday on a Thursday to start planning our weekend ensembles, the burgeoning actress is already establishing a template to follow.
The first is a leopard print dress, with Shayk Cooper proving that animal print is a year-round affair. The second is that a slick of red lipstick can never go astray. The last, and arguably most important, is that Mary Janes or ballet flats are appropriate going-out shoes—especially if you’re under ten.
Lea De Seine Shayk Cooper, you will always be famous (and our weekend dressing muse.)
