At 23, Natalia Bryant has already established herself in fashion and film, but her latest public appearance had fans focusing on something beyond her career. On September 8, Natalia attended the 2026 US Open at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City, where she posed for photos on the event’s blue carpet. The daughter of Vanessa Bryant and late NBA legend Kobe Bryant looked effortlessly polished in a pale-yellow belted jacket layered over a matching top, wide-leg blue jeans, and strappy sandals. Her confident posture and striking height quickly caught attention, but online reactions soon shifted toward her resemblance to her famous parents. Some fans said Natalia appeared to have inherited her father’s familiar presence and even commented that she “walks just like her dad.” Others noticed similarities to her mother, while a few made an unexpected comparison to Ivanka Trump. The variety of reactions showed just how closely fans continue to follow Natalia’s appearance and style as she grows into her own identity.
Fashion, however, is only one part of Natalia’s increasingly impressive career. She signed with IMG Models at 18 and has since appeared in campaigns and major fashion events, including a memorable Versace runway debut during Milan Fashion Week in 2023. She has also worked with brands such as Bulgari and Victoria’s Secret Pink while developing her passion for filmmaking. Natalia graduated from USC in 2025 with a degree in film and has worked on creative projects, including a Kobe sneaker commercial featuring Jalen Brunson. She also serves on the board of the Mamba & Mambacita Sports Foundation, continuing her family’s commitment to supporting young athletes. While fans may still notice echoes of Kobe and Vanessa in her style and presence, Natalia’s career increasingly reflects something distinctly her own.
