Kelly Osbourne Returns to Runway with Bat Tribute to Late Father
The television personality and fashion designer walked for Natasha Zinko's OnlyFans-sponsored show at London Fashion Week, her first runway appearance in over a decade.
Kelly Osbourne made a notable return to the runway on Friday, appearing in Natasha Zinko's spring 2027 show during London Fashion Week. The event, sponsored by OnlyFans and titled "Pay Per View," marked Osbourne's first catwalk appearance in more than ten years. She paid homage to her late father, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, by carrying a bat figurine during her walk. The bat has long been associated with the elder Osbourne since a 1982 concert incident where he bit the head off a bat on stage.
Osbourne wore a black bow tie and white dickie without a jacket, complementing her ensemble with the bat accessory. Her hair was styled in a sharp, asymmetrical black bob wig, reminiscent of punk styles she favored in the early 2000s. Earlier this year, Osbourne stated that she wore wigs to conceal significant weight loss experienced during her grief following her father's death in July 2025.
This appearance at London Fashion Week comes after Osbourne's last runway walk at the 2015 Life Ball in Vienna, a fundraiser for HIV/AIDS. Her previous modeling work includes appearances at Naomi Campbell's Fashion for Relief shows and walks for designers such as Betsey Johnson and Heatherette.
She was among a diverse cast at Zinko's show, which explored themes of surveillance and authenticity. Other participants included model Katie Price, "Sopranos" actress Drea de Matteo, and singer Lava La Rue.
