For her first major red carpet, a 22-year-old Kate Winslet stepped out in an emerald green Givenchy gown at the 1998 Oscars.
And more than two decades later, her 24-year-old daughter, Mia Threapleton, wore a strikingly similar Oscar De La Renta dress yesterday at the Cannes Film Festival for the premiere of her film The Phoenician Scheme.
Ms Threapleton sported an emerald green embroidered dress and looked the spitting image of her mother as she posed alongside the film's director, Wes Anderson.
Ms Winslet's 1998 gown was custom-designed by Givenchy chief designer Alexander McQueen. She said: 'It was like an embroidered sculpture. I have to be honest, the dress was not entirely comfortable to wear or to sit down in. But it was worth it because he had made it.'
The 49-year-old actress was also at the film festival to support her only daughter and wore an iridescent silver gown.
Ms Threapleton is starring in her first major feature.
Ahead of making her debut at Cannes, she told The Sunday Times: 'I'm going to be like a little shaking leaf!' After playing a maid in the Netflix hit Scoop, Ms Threapleton stars as Liesl in the dark comedy alongside a stellar cast including Tom Hanks, Bill Murray and Willem Dafoe.
Ms Winslet had her daughter with her first husband, director Jim Threapleton, from whom she split in 2001. Ms Threapleton explained how she had first told her mother she wanted to follow in her footsteps and be an actress herself at just ten years old. She signed herself up to online casting sites at the age of 15, out of her desire to do it 'on my own'.
She added that Ms Winslet has been nothing but supportive of her career, while also making sure that she was aware of the difficulties that come with the job.
Ms Threapleton said: 'She was very, very encouraging. But she always - I mean, always - emphasised the hard work that goes into it.'
