Lila Moss baffles fans as she sports quirky long red talon toenails for photoshoot

She has already followed her mother’s modeling credentials as she has taken to the catwalk and appeared in magazines.

And Lila Moss has once again taken part in a show-stopping magazine photoshoot, but left fans baffled with her very unique style choice.

The daughter of Kate Moss, 19, took to Instagram on Monday to share a close-up snap of her quirky red talon toenails.

She sported the pointed toenail-claws as part of a photoshoot with Perfect Magazine for its September issue.

But her 409,000 Instagram followers were left baffled by the fashion choice, as they questioned how she put her socks on after the shoot.

One person joked: ‘Then how to wear socks with those nails.’

Another said: ‘Then how to wear socks with those nails.’

And other fans quipped that her talon-like toenails could be used as a weapon because they were so sharp.

One user commented: ‘Imagine getting toed to death.’

While another added: ‘them toes bouta cut people damn.’

Long acrylic fingernails have long been a trend, with many celebrities including Rihanna, Khloe Kardashian, Dua Lipa and Kylie Jenner opting for them.

However, claw-like toenails have become a more niche and surprising trend as they have seemingly become more popular across social media.

Her surprising manicure choice comes after it was revealed Lila is set to appear in the 2023 Pirelli calendar that her supermodel mother first graced in 1994.

She fronted the Italian tire manufacturer’s latest edition, titled Love Letters To The Muse, alongside a string of top models including Cara Delevingne, Karlie Kloss, Bella Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski.

Miss Moss said she was ‘honoured’ to appear in the calendar. Kate, 48, was also featured in 2006 and 2012.

Lila said of the opportunity: ‘It feels very special. I knew my mum had done it and had heard of all the iconic people who’d shot it and been a part of it,’ she told a Sunday newspaper last week. So, when I was asked, I was really excited.’

Her mother Kate, 48, first appeared in the iconic calendar in 1994 when she was shot by legendary photographer Herb Ritts on Paradise Island in the Bahamas.

She was also featured in the 2006 edition, shot in Cap d’Antibes, France alongside the likes of Jennifer Lopez and Gisele Bundchen.

And Kate made another appearance in the 2012 calendar, shot in Corsica Island, with more famous faces, including Lara Stone and Milla Jovovich.

Paving the way as one of fashion’s most successful models has helped fast track her daughter to achieving some of fashion’s biggest milestones.

Lila first started modeling five years ago and made her catwalk debut at Miu Miu’s SS21 show, before appearing on her first Vogue cover earlier this year.

Kate shares Lila with Jefferson Hack, with whom she was in a relationship in the early Noughties.

Jefferson and Kate – who dated from 2001 to 2004 with Lila being born in 2002 – have an amicable relationship and would ensure their daughter spent a regular amount of time with each of them in her childhood.

While Lila still has a good relationship with both parents, she is often seen out with mum Kate as she is signed to her modeling agency.

The mother and daughter have walked in fashion shows together and made a joint appearance at this year’s Met Ball in New York.

Lila is also now the director of her own company, Grace Grove Ltd, a move that coincides with supermodel mum Kate winding down three of her firms.

The name of the company is a nod to The Grove, the family home in North London, which Kate sold recently.

Speaking about growing up in the spotlight in a recent interview with Vogue, Lila confessed that she was shocked by the attention surrounding her mother, admitting that she was surprised her friends even knew who she was.

She explained: ‘I went to secondary school and everyone was like, ‘Oh, your mum’s Kate Moss!’ You don’t really have a filter when you’re that young and I was like, ‘How do you know who she is? She’s old! She’s old and boring!”

Adding more about her relationship with her mother, Lila told the fashion bible: ‘I was quite protective over my mum.

‘All my mum’s friends say that I was so scary as a child. I was quite serious. But also, I would always copy here. She would always have her head down and not look at the camera, so I’d always put my head down and not look at the camera. I still do it.’
