Kate Moss jets into curfew-hit Paris for birthday weekend at £2,500-per-night Ritz with her boyfriend Nikolai von Bismarck and lookalike daughter Lila Grace

  • Supermodel Kate Moss took trip to Paris to celebrate her 47th birthday weekend
  • Sources say she travelled to France for work and forced to cut short her holiday to the Caribbean to do so, but made the most of her time in the city 
  • Took trip to vintage jewellers Dary’s as well as the Yves Saint Laurent boutique
  • Photographer boyfriend Nikolai von Bismarck and daughter Lila Grace came too 

Right now, a birthday weekend in Paris is a distant dream for most of us, but France’s coronavirus crackdown didn’t deter Kate Moss from jetting in to celebrate in style.

The supermodel was accompanied by her boyfriend Nikolai von Bismarck and lookalike daughter Lila Grace on a flying visit to the City of Light, where she enjoyed her 47th birthday in fashionable luxury.

Sources said Kate had to travel to Paris for work and had been forced to break off a Caribbean holiday to do so, but she made the most of a city that is under a 6pm to 6am curfew.

The model jetted into Paris from the West Indies on January 14 – two days before her birthday – for a photoshoot. 

Lila Grace is due to grace the catwalk at a haute couture show for fashion house Fendi on Wednesday. 

The assignments meant the party were not breaching local lockdown rules against unnecessary travel.

The curfew in the French capital allows shops to remain open, but restaurants, bars and other entertainment venues are closed. 

Combining work and pleasure as best they could, Kate and her party immersed themselves in the Parisian shopping scene. Their base was the Ritz hotel, where the suites cost £2,500 a night.

Dressed in a floor-length British racing green skirt, a black coat and face mask, the model celebrated her special day on January 16 with a trip to vintage jewellers Dary’s, a favourite with the fashion set.

She then visited the Yves Saint Laurent boutique, where she picked up a black frock. 

Draped in a new jacket that looked like real fur, she left the Avenue Montaigne store accompanied by photographer Nikolai, 34, and Lila Grace, 18.

The following day, Kate left her plush hotel in the fur jacket and blue jeans but temporarily forgot to put on her face mask until she passed a sign that reminded her.

Kate is no stranger to the Ritz. Regular visits over the past three decades include those with former boyfriend Johnny Depp. 

Kate once said: ‘He always stayed there. I had an apartment in Paris at the time, but he said, “No, we’re staying at the Ritz.” He didn’t want to slum it in my apartment.’

The family trip comes after Kate said she was ‘so emotional’ when the teen made her catwalk debut for Miu Miu.

The fashionista gushed about her daughter in a special video with British Vogue to celebrate her January 2021 cover issue. 

Kate gushed: ‘Yeah it was so emotional seeing Lila on the runway, it wasn’t emotional I was really nervous for her. 

‘I was sitting on the kitchen table and Katie England was there and Rosemary, and other girlfriends, and we were waiting for the show to start on the link, and when she came out we were like [gasp] she’s doing it, she’s doing it! I was so proud.’
