Tim Burton and his daughter Nell made a rare public appearance together at Paris Fashion Week.

The award-winning director, 68, brought his 18-year-old daughter as his guest to the Loewe show in Paris on Oct. 2. The father-daughter duo coordinated their outfits for the occasion, with Burton wearing a black suit, black shirt and black shoes.

Nell opted for a short-sleeve black minidress paired with black heels. She completed her look with a bright yellow handbag, adding a pop of color to the otherwise dark ensemble.

The pair sat in the front row during the show and were photographed chatting with Delphine Arnault, chairman and chief executive officer of Christian Dior Couture and a member of the LVMH board. LVMH is the parent company of Loewe.

Burton shares Nell and his 22-year-old son, Billy, with actress Helena Bonham Carter. The former couple met while working on the 2001 film Planet of the Apes and remained together until 2014.

Bonham Carter's representative confirmed at the time that the couple had separated amicably earlier that year. The former partners have continued to maintain a friendship while co-parenting their two children.

Although Nell and Billy have largely stayed away from the spotlight, both have occasionally joined their parents at public events over the years.

Nell has also begun making appearances in the fashion world. In November 2025, she and her mother appeared together in their first fashion campaign for jewelry brand Larkspur & Hawk. The campaign celebrated the brand's 25th anniversary and featured the pair wearing pieces from its Palette collection.

Bonham Carter has previously spoken about her love of jewelry and dressing up, describing the campaign as an opportunity to embrace a Georgian-inspired look. Nell also wore a necklace that had previously been given to her mother by her own mother.

The siblings have appeared together at several major events, including the 2016 premiere of Alice Through the Looking Glass, which starred Bonham Carter, and the 2019 premiere of Dumbo, directed by Burton. They also attended the Rome Film Festival in 2021.

More recently, Nell attended London Fashion Week, sitting in the front row at the Ashley Williams show last September. She also joined her mother at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition Preview Party in June 2025 and at the 1,500th performance celebration of Cabaret on the West End in July 2024.
