Elvis Presley's granddaughter walks the runway in Milan model debut
NEW
YORK (AP) - She wasn't wearing blue suede shoes, but Riley Keough -
granddaughter of Elvis Presley, daughter of Lisa Marie Presley - put her best
foot forward in her modelling debut. The 14-year-old walked the runway
Wednesday during the Milan fashion show for D and G, which is Dolce and
Gabbana's trendier, less-expensive clothing line. She's also scheduled to walk
in Saturday's Dolce and Gabbana show, part of the fall-winter 2004 preview
showings. "When we met Riley last year we were immediately struck by her
beauty and fresh, pure spirit," Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana said in a
statement. "With her mother's beauty and her grandfather's attitude, she is
sure to be a star!" Keough, whose father is Presley's ex-husband, musician
Danny Keough, is signed with the New York-based modelling agency IMG-CP.
