'How Riley Keough Is Turning the Page' Lensed by Olivia Malone for ELLE UK AOC Fashion

Riley Keough became a Chanel ambassador with the release of the brand’s Spring/Summer 2024 campaign shot in Hyères, in the heart of the South of France.

French food wasn’t on Riley’s mind when asked by ELLE UK to imagine hosting a dinner party with her also-famous friends Dakota Johnson, Kristen Stewart and Zoë Kravitz. “Dakota would set the table, pick the things out, make everything look nice, and pick the flowers.”

“Kristen would cook and pick the food. Zoë would definitely help cook. Zoë makes a very good tapioca. I would request that. Zoë would maybe also choose the music as well,' Riley Keough summarized.

Returning to Chanel, Keough closed the recent Paris show, emerging in a fluttering cape to sing Prince’s ‘When Doves Cry’, perching on a swing in the giant birdcage serving as a key fashion show prop.

ELLE UK’s Laura Antonia Jordan describes the vignette as a perfectly-composed metaphor for Keough’s life: glamorous, big, surreal, in the middle of everything but [also]separate from it, with an undercurrent of sadness [‘How can you just leave me standing, alone in a world that’s so cold?’].

Today’s focus is new book ‘From Here to the Great Unknown — co-written by the now-passed Lisa Marie Presley, the only child of Elvis Presley, and Presley family daughter/granddaughter Riley Keough.

It is, as Keough writes, ‘a human story in what I know is an extraordinary circumstance’.

Not carrying the Presley name is a burden removed from her shoulders. She is the daughter of singer Danny Keough and not her mother’s tempestuous 108-day ‘hurricane marriage’ to Nicolas Cage! Read the entire interview at link top of page.
