NBA icon Kobe Bryant’s eldest daughter is making headlines. Her long-standing passion came to the forefront as she made her runway debut in Milan. While the 20-year-old was inspired by a legendary supermodel, she attributed her success to the efforts of another important person. 

After her debut show, Natalia Bryant spoke about her experience. She mentioned how she’s taken that special person’s every advice and lesson to heart.

Kobe’s eldest daughter, Natalia Bryant, had the chance to speak to Vogue following her debut at the Milan Fashion Week. During the conversation, she stated how her mother, Vanessa Bryant, taught her confidence.

The University of Southern California student stated, “I’ve always loved watching videos of Naomi (Campbell) walking down the runway along with videos of other iconic supermodels I look up to. My mom says, ‘Walk like Naomi but remember to be yourself, put your own style to your walk and always with your head held high.'”

While the 5ft10 model Naomi Campbell inspired her, Natalia was guided by her mother. Even if Vanessa wants her daughter to be as elegant as Naomi, she teaches her daughter to embrace her true self. Weathering unimaginable storms, the mother-daughter duo serve as a steadfast pillar of strength for each other and their family.

The Bryant women are the shining example of resilience and strength. Natalia’s journey in the fashion industry began in 2021 when she signed a deal with IMG Models.

While she was present in several events, this was the first time she got the opportunity to walk for the $1.7 billion brand. Her look was as stunning as her personality. She wore a classic black outfit from the Versace Spring 2024 collection.

Indeed, Natalia’s enduring passion for fashion and beauty seems to be a reflection of the wisdom she’s acquired from her mother. However, the 41-year-old ensured that she imparted not just a sense of fashion but a deeper understanding of self-expression and individuality.
