The Oscar winner, 57, shared a series of photos and videos on Instagram on Thursday, June 25, detailing his whole family's trip to Paris for Christian Louboutin's Menswear Spring/Summer 2027 show at Paris Fashion Week.
Jaden, 27, was appointed Louboutin's men's creative director in September.
"WOW @c.syresmith this @christianlouboutin collection is insane🔥," Will wrote of the collection, alongside photos featuring himself, wife Jada Pinkett Smith, their daughter Willow, Will's son Trey and Jada's mother Adrienne Banfield-Norris. "Makin' me a proud dad!"
"We're here at Jaden's...show," Will said in one video, referring to his son's sophomore collection as the brand's first men's creative director.
"There's a Christian Louboutin foot. Jaden designed a foot!" he continued, referring to a red sculpture of a foot outside the show's Paris venue.
Another video showed Will walking into the show for a first look at the decor, which included a recreation of Stonehenge.
"Wow," he said. "Proud daddy moment. Full proud daddy moment."

Other photos showed the whole family posing with Louboutin himself, 63, as well as Mick Jagger, 82.
For the excursion, Will and Trey, 33 (whom the Oscar winner shares with ex-wife Sheree Zampino) donned matching white tees, black suits and killer shades, while Jada, 54, wowed in a black ruffled skirt and bandeau top with a massive gold collar.

Willow, 25, kept to the all-black aesthetic in a shorter skirt and spaghetti-strap top, while her grandmother, 72, wore a shiny gold blouse, pinstriped black pencil skirt and gold accessories.
Jaden, meanwhile, stepped out in a football-inspired all-red look. On top, he wore shoulder pads over a sleeveless shirt. For bottoms, he wore jeans in the same eye-catching shade, and completed the eye-catching style with a cap worn backward, fingerless gloves, statement jewelry and red face paint.

A source told PEOPLE on Wednesday, June 24, that the family — particularly Will and Jada — were happy to make a rare public appearance together in support of Jaden.
"Their family and family time are the most important things to both of them," the source told PEOPLE.
Showing up to celebrate Jaden is "just part of what they do for each other," they added. "Will and Jada love each other and absolutely maintain a steady relationship, but what you are seeing is full support of their kids. They are proud of them."
After Jaden was named the label's men's creative director, a press release shared at the time stated that the "Icon" singer will "oversee the creation of four collections annually across men's shoes, leather goods, and accessories," in addition to helping develop the brand's visual and emotional identity across marketing campaigns, corresponding events and experiences.
Jaden and Louboutin already had a six-year partnership prior to his appointment.
"When I first met Jaden, I saw in him a natural fit for the Maison," Louboutin said in the press release. "His world is rich and multidimensional, his style and cultural sensibility are inspiring and his curiosity and openness are remarkable."
"Merging my vision with Christian's comes quite naturally because we see the world in a very similar way," Jaden said. "There's a shared respect for creative freedom, and I think that's why it works. I want to continue the story, honoring the past while shaping the future through my own perspective."
