Oscar-winning actor Brendan Fraser made a rare public appearance at New York Fashion Week to support his son, Holden Fletcher, who walked the runway for Todd Snyder’s Fall-Winter 2025 collection on February 6th. Fraser, 56, was spotted in the front row alongside fashion icons like Jenna Lyons and Cass Bird, proudly capturing his son’s modeling debut on his phone.
Holden, 20, showcased a stylish ensemble featuring an olive green coat, a collared cardigan, a mesh shirt, and denim-like trousers, complemented by a unique curled updo hairstyle. A video circulating on InStyle’s TikTok shows Fraser, dressed casually in all black, filming the models as they walked past.

Following the show, Holden shared photos of his Todd Snyder debut on Instagram, including one likely taken by his father. He expressed his gratitude to the Todd Snyder team for the opportunity and the honor of walking in their collection.
Holden, who is signed with Marilyn Agency, has experience both on the runway and as an editorial cover model. He previously walked in the Hermès Men’s Fall-Winter 2023 show at the Domino Sugar Refinery in Brooklyn, sporting a camel coat, gray turtleneck, skinny jeans, and buckle boots.

Holden is the middle child of Brendan Fraser and his ex-wife, Afton Smith. They also have two other sons: Griffin Arthur, born in 2002, and Leland Francis, born in 2006. Leland is also a model and has walked for brands like Cos and Helmut Lang.

Holden’s appearance at New York Fashion Week follows a recent trend of celebrity children making waves in the fashion industry. Molly Ringwald’s son, Roman, walked in the Lingua Franca show earlier that week, and Heidi Klum and Seal’s son, Henry, made his debut in the Lena Erziak Haute Couture show in Paris. Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s daughter, Sunday Rose, also turned heads at the Miu Miu show in Paris.
