Lisa Rinna wanted to avoid comparisons to Ramona Singer with her Haute Couture debut.

The 50-year-old model and reality star appeared at the Germanier spring/summer 2026 show during Haute Couture Week in Paris last month, and she turned to her model daughters Amelia Gray Hamlin and Delilah Belle Hamlin for a pep talk.

She told Sony Music Entertainment’s Dinner’s On Me podcast: “I was just like, ‘Just don’t look like Ramona Singer on the runway’.

“My girls said, ‘Mom, whatever you do don’t look like Ramona.’ So I have that in my mind.

“Don’t look like Ramona, don’t have googly eyes.”

During the third season of The Real Housewives of New York, Ramona made her runway debut in the Loris Diran show.

At the time, cast member Jill Zarin said: “When Ramona walked out it looked like an alien invaded her body.

“She walked like a robot with her neck sticking out like a giraffe and her eyes bulging. I mean, it was hysterical.”

Lisa – who appeared on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills – was glad she “didn’t f*** it up” last month, and she loved the whole experience.

She said: “It was so thrilling.

“It was just a trip and a half because there’s so much pressure, you want to do well for them.

“I’m opening the show, not just that I’m in it, I’m opening the damn thing. No pressure.”

Meanwhile, Lisa previously admitted she loves being compared to her daughters when it comes to her fashion choices.

She told PEOPLE magazine: “Come on, look at them… I watch everything that they do.

“I was literally wearing baggy jeans, a tank top and a bomber jacket, and little Mary Janes with socks.

“I walked in, and they said, ‘Oh my God, you look like Amelia.’ And I went, ‘All right, that’s an amazing compliment.’ “

Amelia previously revealed that she had been exploring some of her mom’s style from back in the day and decided to embrace them and take them on for herself despite what others might think.

She told Paper magazine: “My mom has so many dresses in her garage saved up from over the years. She had shown them to me a few months ago and that stirred up the idea.

“I got rid of all of my thoughts towards what other people would think of me recreating my mom and thought, ‘What would my mom love the most? What would get her sentimental?’ “
