“The MODel-father! Paul Weller and daughter Leah are picture perfect as they strut their stuff in high-fashion shoot” says The Daily Mail

“There aren't many father daughter duo's several decades apart in age that are cool enough to be asked to model a collection together.

But when your father is the original Modfather, and your mother sung with two of the biggest bands in 80's pop culture, it would be difficult not to inherit some of their style.

Paul and Leah Weller were pictured shooting a new collection for British heritage brand Daks on Thursday. Leah is the 22-year-old daughter of rock star Paul Weller of The Jam and Dee C Lee, who was a backing vocalist for Wham! and the band they played in together, The Style Council.

The brunette beauty was spotted modelling a two tone knee length mac, the top half was a rusty red which complimented the traditional beige of the bottom of the coat.

Outside of the connection to her famous father, Leah is a successful model in her own right, having graced the covers of Vogue and Tatler, and is signed to Next Model Management.

Paul could be seen modelling a grey check suit, paired with a white polo neck and white handkerchief tucked into the breast pocket which polished off his smart look perfectly.

Daks is a high quality tailoring brand which was founded in London in 1936. The British brand have chosen the fashionable family duo to front the brand's Spring Summer 14 collection to mark the 120th anniversary of their brand.

Channel luxe sophistication like Leah Weller

When you've got a rock legend as a father, you're bound to have fashion and style ingrained in your very being. And for Leah Weller, this much is true as she and dad Paul joined forces to shoot a campaign for British label Daks.

Modelling pieces from the Spring Summer 2014 collection, Leah looked stunning as she posed and strutted on the streets of Brighton. But it was this black and check dress that really caught our eye.

Fresh of the catwalk, Leah, we are to believe, is the first celebrity to wear this dress. And doesn't it look great on her? Cinched in at the waist to give her curves, midi length which is bang on trend, and that gorgeous blouse top half which makes it super luxury.

Daks, a heritage British brand, are famed for their amazing tailored pieces, especially coats and jackets. This check of Leah's dress is also a signature print for the House.

This dress is super smart and sophisticated, and we've picked some other dresses that are similar below (this one won't be available to buy until early next year).
