Sunday Rose is 18 (as of today, July 7) and just walked her second Dior show in a row at Paris Fashion Week. The runway keeps calling, even as critics keep hammering her walk and her famous last name.
The criticism has followed Sunday Rose from show to show, with viewers mocking her heavy-footed stride and calling her a nepo baby who wouldn’t be on any runway without Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban for parents. She walked Dior’s autumn-winter show anyway, her second time in a row after debuting there last year.

Some critics said her stomping walk looked like she was headed to a WWE match. Others told her to try painting or acting instead. The same complaints trailed her from the Calvin Klein autumn 2026 show, where one commenter branded the walk “absolutely ridiculous.”

She’s kept modeling through it. The Dior look was a knitted grey-and-pink coat with a printed clutch and matching shoes, her hair down in a center part.
