In an interview with The Telegraph, Martin explains that as a child, she would do fashion shows in her room, dressed in her school uniform, and posing in front of the mirror as if she were on a catwalk. She still loves to look at her mother’s past on the red carpet—and of course, she occasionally borrows accessories and garments from Paltrow’s closet. “She keeps a lot of things. Not all of them fit me, but the ones that do fit me, I always steal. I recently stole a Prada bowling bag from her; it’s the perfect travel bag because it fits so much,” she says.
When Martin doesn’t have a fashion campaign on her hands, she studies law, history and society at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. “I constantly remind myself how grateful I am to have these opportunities,” she told the newspaper. “I know this is not a normal way to grow up by any means. But my parents did a really good job of instilling in me that I shouldn’t be entitled to anything. I have to work.”
