Diddy's Twins Make a Striking Appearance at LaQuan Smith's NYFW Show

The moment the "Notorious B.I.G." singer's daughters appeared outside a New York Fashion Week show, the focus shifted quickly from the event to them. Within hours, a short video of the twins sparked sharp reactions that reflected broader tensions about age, visibility, and scrutiny in celebrity culture.

Jesse James and D'Lila Star Combs, the teenage daughters of music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, found themselves at the center of a digital firestorm after appearing at designer LaQuan Smith's New York Fashion Week show on October 6, 2025.

The 18-year-old twins of the "It's All About the Benjamins" singer showed up alongside their brother, King Combs, at the buzzy event, yet it was their daring outfits — not the family's united front — that stirred a fierce online debate. It all ignited after digital creator Ben Weiss shared a reel of the siblings on Instagram.

In the caption, Ben wrote, "Diddy's kids King Combs and The Combs Twins at the Laquan Smith NYFW Fashion Show. #Diddy #PuffDaddy #PDiddy #BadBoy #Rap #NYFW."

The video features Jesse and D'Lila posing confidently on a New York street, bathed in the glow of red traffic lights and surrounded by the hum of the city. Their backs arched slightly toward each other as camera flashes popped in the background, casting them in the unmistakable light of celebrity.

Jesse wore a strapless black mini dress with a leather-like shine, paired with sheer black tights and sharp pointed heels. D'Lila mirrored her sister's glamour in a fitted black dress, her hair long and straight. King, meanwhile, stood slightly to the side in a sleeveless patterned top and fitted pants, smiling easily.

But while all three siblings were present, the online response honed in almost exclusively on the twins' styling choices. "Dresses are too short," one commenter snapped. Another added with distress, "Definitely dress older than their age😢😢😢😢." A blunt voice questioned, "What are they wearing?"

One dramatic reply read, "Can those dresses get any shorter?😫" while another speculated curiously, "Plastic dresses, idk?" Amid the storm of judgment, others came to the teens' defense."They look great. Just don't care about those haters that ain't got own lives," one wrote. Another fan chimed in with a simple vote of confidence, "Ah they're gorgeous."

Still, the issue of age remained a sticking point for some viewers. "Those girls are too young to be dress [sic] like that," another commenter declared.

Despite their brother's presence and the family's stylish showing at one of fashion's most exclusive events, it was the twins — and the polarizing reaction to their outfits — that dominated the conversation.

As New York Fashion Week drew its usual crowd of models, moguls, and influencers, the daughters of Diddy once again proved that a few seconds of video can spark days of discussion — and that public scrutiny doesn't wait until you're out of your teens.
