Kai Schreiber lit up the New York Fashion Week runways, opening the show for designer Jason Wu, while also participating in several other fashion shows, as well.
The opening and closing spots in a runway lineup are widely considered the most important within the fashion industry. Schreiber, the daughter of actors Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber, shared stills and video from her Wu runway debut on Instagram Sunday.

The video shows several angles of the teen walking in the show, which celebrated the 100th birthday of artist Robert Rauschenberg, and explored the relationship between art and fashion. The show was staged in collaboration with the late artist’s foundation. To create the looks, Wu was granted access to Rauschenberg’s archive; the art not only influenced the clothing, but was on display during the runway.
“It marks a time that we’re in right now. I think now we need beauty more than ever, but yet, it’s also a reflection of me,” Wu told Women’s Wear Daily. “I’m a collage — I’ve lived everywhere, and New York is the biggest collage place ever.”
Schreiber has had quite the busy fashion week; aside from opening for Wu, the IMG model also walked for Altuzarra, COS, Calvin Klein and Michael Kors, each of which were highlighted on her Instagram.
