When it comes to America’s royal families, the Presleys are undeniably on the same A-list level as the Kennedys and the Bushes. From Elvis and Priscilla, to their only daughter, Lisa Marie and her four children, this family has been in the spotlight for over seven decades, and their fame only grows with time. Riley Keough, Lisa Marie’s first-born child, for one, established herself as one to watch early on in her career. By the time she hit her teenage years, Keough already made a name for herself on the modeling and style fronts. And now, 20 years later, she’s hit full-blown star status after appearing in multiple hit TV shows, modeling for Dior, and becoming a Chanel house ambassador.
For much of her childhood, Keough was kept out of the public eye. But during the mid-2000s — once she hit her teenage years — she started popping up at various A-list affairs. After connecting with Dior’s John Galliano (and even modeling in his Spring/Summer 2005 show), she became a front-row regular at numerous fashion week fêtes. Off the catwalk, Keough frequently embraced the indie sleaze aesthetic with low-waisted mini skirts, slouchy sweaters, and lacy LBDs. Occasionally, she’d add a refined flair to her OOTD with a designer handbag — some of her signature houses were Dior, Coach, and Chanel, all brands she still reaches for today. Once she secured the role of Marie Currie in the 2010 film, The Runaways, her edgy style took a polished turn. At the movie’s premiere, Keough embraced her glamorous side in a velvet LBD, a bold red lip, and bombshell waves. Two months later, she continued her chic streak at her first Met Gala in a champagne-colored high-low gown adorned with cascading ruffled tiers.

Another turning point in Keough’s career was in 2023, when Daisy Jones & The Six premiered, a.k.a. the highly-rated Amazon Prime fictional series about the rise and fall of a rock band in the 1970s. While promoting the book-to-TV adaptation, Keough regularly channeled her character, Daisy Jones’ boho-chic aura. However, even now (nearly two years since the show wrapped), she’s maintained the plot’s retro-inspired aura for both laidback and luxe appearances. At the Chanel Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2023/24 show, for one, Keough went full rockstar mode in a shimmery purple jumpsuit with bell bottom-esque pants. More recently, at the Inaugural Gotham TV Awards in June 2024, she gave off major ‘70s energy in a floral see-through gown from — you guessed it — Chanel.
