Heidi Klum and Leni Klum.

Supermodel Heidi Klum attended the Art of Elysium’s 2024 Heaven Gala in Los Angeles on Jan. 6, and she in fact looked like a work of art herself. The 1998 SI Swimsuit Issue cover star attended the black-tie function alongside her daughter, 19-year-old model Leni Klum.

Heidi opted for a strapless, floor-length designer gown from Monique Lhuillier’s fall 2024 collection. The nude-colored garment was adorned with beautiful gold beaded detailing, and Klum coordinated her accessories by wearing lots of gold jewelry. She was styled by her go-to fashion duo, Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn, for the occasion. The America’s Got Talent judge wore her signature blonde locks in waves and opted for a bronze smokey eye.

Meanwhile, Leni opted for a similar silhouette in an eye-catching color. She wore a bright red strapless and sequined Marmar Halim gown and accented the dress with a matching fiery choker. As for glam, Leni wore her hair in a slicked-back bun and went with a classic combo of dramatic winged eyeliner and a nude lip.

The mother-daughter duo posed for several pics on the red carpet together, and Heidi shared a few on her Instagram account the following day.

“Last night with @leniklum and @theartofelysium ❤️❤️,” she noted simply in her caption.

Though Heidi has her comments turned off on the carousel of images, Leni’s post of her own outfit received plenty of praise from her 1.9 million followers. 

“This look 😍😍,” makeup artist Ash K Holm gushed.

“Red suits you,” one person observed.

“I’m obsessed 😍,” someone else declared.

“You are unreal my lady!!!” another fan exclaimed.
