Apple Martin, the daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Coldplay’s Chris Martin, made a splash recently at the prestigious Les Bal des Débutantes in Paris. At 20 years old, she has mostly stayed out of the celebrity limelight, keeping her Instagram private and letting her famous lineage take a backseat. However, the world got a glimpse of this budding fashionista on November 30 when she made her society debut in a stunning custom creation from Valentino.
Dressed by creative director Alessandro Michele, Apple wowed the attendees in a strapless baby blue gown that reportedly took over 750 hours to craft. The gown featured six tiers of silk plissé chiffon and a chic black bow cinched at her waist, perfectly aligning with the event’s elegant vibe. Martin kept her look minimal, opting for sleek sandals that matched her dress while forgoing any jewelry, allowing the exquisite gown to take center stage.
Gwyneth Paltrow didn’t hold back in the style department either. The Oscar-winning actress complemented her daughter’s look in a black tulle gown from Valentino’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection, which showcased playful white polka dots and a partially sheer bodice. The family, ever the fashionable unit, saw Martin’s father, Chris, and brother, Moses, don custom tuxedos from the same esteemed fashion house. Rounding out the family’s appearances was Paltrow’s mother, Blythe Danner, who added her own flair with a pastel pink blazer and a pleated gray maxi skirt.
Given her lineage and debutante status, many already speculate that Apple Martin could very well become a prominent name in fashion, following in the footsteps of other notable debutantes like Ava Philippe and Lily Collins. Fashion enthusiasts and the curious public alike are keen to see what she will do next in the world of style.
Stay on the lookout, because Apple’s next fashion statement could be just around the corner.
