Heidi Klum and her son, Henry Samuel, coordinated their sleek sartorial agendas for the LACMA's opening gala for the David Geffen Galleries on April 16. The pair stepped out alongside each other for the star-studded event, and it's clear that the 20-year-old has inherited his mom's supermodel flair.

The German native oozed high-octane glamour in a sheer black dress that featured sultry fishnet detailing embellished with intricate sequins. The maxi dress was layered over a plunging black bodysuit that featured a halter neckline. Heidi's striking look was layered with a fuzzy black shawl and accessorized with a pair of open-toe heels. Her luscious blonde locks were styled into bombshell waves while her makeup exuded soft glam, courtesy of a smoky eye and a glossy lip.

Meanwhile, Henry looked suave in a black tailored blazer with a pair of matching pants. The rising star added a pair of sunglasses and a silver pendant necklace to his look for an edgy finish.

This isn't the first time the duo have graced a red carpet together. Heidi brought her son as her date to the screening of The Drama on April 2. The supermodel wore a white suit-dress that featured a double-breasted blazer with a single sleeve and a full-length skirt complete with a daring thigh-high slit. Heidi accessorized the ensemble with a pair of silver metallic Christian Louboutin heels that were accented with a pointed-toe design.

Henry posed next to his mom, dressed in a sleek black suit that featured a buttoned-down shirt, tailored blazer, and a pair of silk pants.

Heidi Klum's model influence

Henry opened up about how his mom inspired him to go into modelling during an interview with Paper Magazine. "We would always visit her on her set days. And we all were just super interested. She just looked like she was having fun in her sets. And I just wanted that feeling as well," he said.

He made his high-fashion debut during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week back in January 2025 when he walked the runway at Lena Erziak's Haute Couture Spring/Summer show. He has since modelled for fashion brand Kith when the label debuted its first show in six years on the streets of New York. Henry also walked his third show for GCDS during Milan Fashion Week in February.

Henry hasn't just been busy commanding the runway, he also starred in the YSL Beauty MYSLF L’Absolu fragrance campaign. "Personally I think MYSLF L'Absolu means yourself, like expressing yourself, being confident," he said in the video.

"Orange blossom and patchouli, it's giving a very spicy feeling towards it. The moments where I feel like I most like myself is when I just express myself through fashion, being with my friends, and family. I appreciate that a lot. Fragrance can make me feel warm, make me feel cozy, happy, and energetic."
