Tim Burton brought his daughter Nell along as his guest on Friday as they attended the Loewe show during Paris Fashion Week.
The 68-year-old filmmaker appeared in high spirits as he arrived arm-in-arm with 18-year-old Nell, his daughter with former partner Helena Bonham Carter, 60.
Sticking to his signature all-black style, Tim wore a sharply tailored black suit with a matching shirt and dark sunglasses.
Nell, who featured in several of her father’s films during her childhood, kept her look simple in a black minidress.
She completed the outfit with pointed black shoes and added a bright accent with a lemon-yellow handbag.
The Edward Scissorhands director smiled and waved to fans and photographers before taking his seat in the front row beside his youngest child.

Tim, who ended his relationship with Monica Bellucci last year, was previously in a long-term relationship with The Crown actress Helena Bonham Carter. The couple split in 2014.
Although they never married, Tim and Helena were together for 13 years. Alongside Nell, they also share a 22-year-old son, Billy.
Helena discussed the end of their relationship in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar in 2016.
She said: ‘You go through massive grief – it is a death of a relationship, so it’s utterly bewildering. Your identity, everything, changes.’
‘Just saying: “I’m not myself at the moment, so be careful. Everyone always says you have to be strong and have a stiff upper lip, but it’s okay to be fragile.’
Helena and Tim began their relationship in 2001 after he cast her as an ape in Planet Of The Apes.
During their relationship, the pair famously lived in adjoining homes. Each house was decorated separately to reflect their individual tastes and styles.
Helena kept both properties following their split, although she said the arrangement could make her feel like an ‘alien person’ because she slept in one house while their children stayed in the other.

Last year, Tim and Monica, a 62-year-old Italian actress and model, announced their separation in a joint statement.
They simply said: ‘It is with much respect and deep care for each other that Monica Bellucci and Tim Burton have decided to part ways.’
Monica and Tim made their official red carpet debut together October 2023 months after she confirmed they were dating, and he directed her in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice – their first project together.
Tim and Monica first met in 2006 but are said to have started dating after reconnecting at the Lumière Film Festival in Lyon in October 2022.
Monica confirmed their relationship in June of the following year as she told Elle France: ‘What I can say… I’m glad I met the man, first of all.’
She continued: ‘It’s one of those encounters that rarely happens in life… I know the man, I love him, and now I’m going to meet the director, another adventure begins.
‘I love Tim. And I have great respect for Tim Burton.’
