Her acting schedule may be booked and busy this year, but this week, Lambe took a breather from it all to partake in a different experience: Attending her first fashion show. Last night in New York, Lambe sat front row at the Louis Vuitton resort 2027 show, which designer Nicolas Ghesquière unveiled at The Frick museum, uptown. (Vuitton as your first fashion show? Not bad.) “I was so surprised when the invitation came through that I had to ask my team if they were sure it was real,” says Lambe. “I’m so happy to have been able to attend, and feel very lucky to be invited into the fashion space.”
The presentation, unsurprisingly, lived up to the hype: Lambe’s favorite part of the show was seeing Ghesquiere’s distinctive take on fashion through the decades. “I really enjoyed the journey through regions and decades throughout the show, almost like mini-collections within a collection,” says Lambe, who also loved the show soundtrack. “The lean into alternative, starting off with Peaches’s legendary ‘The Boys Wanna Be Her’ was such a fun way to start the show. Also, I absolutely loved the nod to Alyssa Liu’s halo hair on some of the models.” Her favorite looks from the collection, meanwhile, were the ensembles that leaned toward sporty-chic. “They felt so reflective of New York through a sports lens, specifically boxing,” says Lambe. “They reminded me a lot of the film Raging Bull, because of the time period they felt set in.”

Her own VIP outfit, however, was less athletic-inspired—and much more sleek and powerful. Lambe slipped into Vuitton’s leather dress and tailored black cape, paired with a monogrammed bag and ankle boots. “Going into the fitting for the show look, the only thing I knew I wanted was something strong,” says Lambe. “A look that was unexpected for me, something different. As soon as I got the cape on and looked in the mirror, I was sold on it.”
