Adrienne couldn’t contain her excitement as she shared a video clip on Instagram.
She captioned, “STRUT EVER JAMES @RookieUSA. @EverJames Runway Debut at #NYFW! With his sister/cousins @jetmariealexander & @beauharperalexander -who are pros! Jet started this family tradition at just 3 years old… then Beau & now my baby boy… who is the youngest to EVER “walk” in this fashion show! WOW,”
She also mentioned that Israel was behind the camera because “I was too busy screaming and crying.”
Ever James joined other celebrity kids on the catwalk for the 13th Annual Rookie USA Fashion Show presented by Haddad Brands. Some of the world’s most fashionable celebrity kids and influencers showcased the season’s latest looks and must-have gear, including apparel, accessories, and footwear from top global brands, including Nike, Jordan, Levi’s®, Converse, and Hurley.
Hosting the event was New York’s very own Kidfluencer, Haileigh Vasquez, who added her unique charm to the occasion. The stage came alive with captivating performances by Sophia Rita and the local Knicks City Kids, while DJ Sophia Rocks provided the perfect musical backdrop for the runway.
Beyond the glamour and fashion, the event also held a philanthropic mission close to its heart. Proceeds from the show went to support Moms for Moms NYC, on behalf of NY Knicks star Julius Randle. The mission of Moms for Moms is to empower single mothers by providing essential postpartum and newborn items, offering a lifeline to those struggling with the challenges of poverty.
