The mini Mamba strikes again.
Before her runway debut at the Versace show during Milan Fashion Week on Friday, Natalia Bryant looked towards more seasoned models for advice, including friend Gigi Hadid.
Natalia, 20, asked Gigi, 28, for a little help in an Instagram Reel Vogue posted Sunday.
“Ahead of @nataliabryant’s runway debut at #Versace’s spring 2024 show, the newly minted model asked her fellow Versace darlings like @gigihadid, @preciousleexoxo, @ameliagray and more for their best runway advice,” Vogue captioned the post. “One to note? Don’t forget to take it all in.”
Hadid told Bryant, “In the rehearsal, they’re gonna tell you to walk fast. They’re gonna yell. They’re gonna scream at you to walk fast.”
The model mom then advised, “I said to just try to take in the moment and let yourself, like, remember it.”
Gigi encouraged Kobe Bryant’s eldest daughter, “You’re gonna be great. I love you! I’m so proud of you I’m gonna cry.”
“No, I’m freaking out. I’m gonna cry,” the former volleyball star told Hadid, who was a noted Kobe fan, at the end of the cute clip.
Amelia Gray Hamlin told Bryant to “Own it!” and “Just be comfortable and just do it. You’re going to slay.”
Some folks in Vogue’s comments section weren’t quite as supportive. One commenter wrote, “i hate using the word but god this has to be peak nepotism in this video lol” as another agreed, “Nepotism at its finest!”
Another joked, “imagine being that close to Claudia Schiffer and NOT ASKING HER INSTEAD.”
“Find Naomi and ask her. No one walks like Naomi… she is the Queen. Period,” one person advised, referring of course to Naomi Campbell.
Bryant, who’s attending the University of Southern California, also hit the runway for the Boss Spring/Summer 2024 show following her Versace debut — proving she’s quickly becoming a pro.
