Ella Bleu Travolta brought the family strut to Paris.

The 26-year-old daughter of John Travolta and the late Kelly Preston hit the runway on Sunday at Miu Miu’s spring 2027 show.

She joined a lineup that included “The Crown” stars Olivia Colman and Emma Corrin, “Half Man” actor Jamie Bell and supermodel Gigi Hadid.

Following the Palais d’Iéna show, she slipped into a khaki suit with a contrasting lapel and cuffs for the brand’s buzzy after-party.

Sunday’s show wasn’t Ella’s first Miu Miu moment of the year. She chose a 1950s-inspired floral gown from the brand for May’s New York premiere of “Propeller One-Way Night Coach,” her father’s directorial debut and her first major on-screen role.

“This whole week was a dream, and so was this dress💙💫✈️,” she wrote on Instagram at the time.

The film, which John, 72, adapted from his 1997 children’s book of the same name, screened at Cannes earlier that month, with the father-daughter duo making the festival rounds arm in arm.

In a joint appearance on the “Today” show, the “Saturday Night Fever” star discussed casting Ella as a flight attendant in the movie: “I had this plan of introducing Ella to the world as an adult in this very Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly kind of way … it’s made a big impact so far, so, you know, I’m so proud of her.”

The rising star made her runway debut in 2022 at in Karl Lagerfeld’s “Cara Loves Karl” show during New York Fashion Week, and in April, she took a turn on the red carpet at the Fashion Trust US Awards.

Ella also makes music, having released her debut EP, “Colors of Love,” in 2024. One track, “Little Bird,” is an ode to her mom, Kelly Preston, who died of breast cancer in 2020 at 57.

“When you lose someone, at least for me, even though there’s so much love and support from other people, sometimes other people’s emotions or feelings can get in the way of yours,” she told Hunger magazine of writing the song.

“You don’t always know how you’re feeling or what kind of message you would want to give that person, but it was really nice to get that out there in the form of music. I feel like music is one of the best forms of communication.”

Preston and John also share a son, Benjamin, 15; their eldest son, Jett, died tragically in 2009 at age 16.
