Kaia Gerber Channels Cindy Crawford: A Generational Fashion Echo

Kaia Gerber was the spitting image of her mother Cindy Crawford as she posed in a strikingly similar outfit to one her parent wore three decades ago

MODEL MOMENTS: Kaia Gerber Steals the Show with Cindy Crawford Flashback

In a jaw-dropping display of mother-daughter magic, 23-year-old supermodel Kaia Gerber stepped out in a sizzling red mini dress that had us all saying, "Mommy dearest!" The striking getup was eerily reminiscent of her iconic mom, Cindy Crawford's, outfit from three decades ago. Yes, you read that right – we're talking about the same Cindy Crawford who slayed the catwalks and dominated the fashion world in the 80s and 90s!

Kaia's Givenchy ensemble for their autumn/winter 2025 collection was a masterclass in simplicity, showcasing her stunning physique in a sleek, figure-hugging dress. But let's be real – it was that uncanny resemblance to Cindy's Revlon Unforgettable Women event look from 1990 that really got our attention! Who else but Kaia could rock the same fiery red hue and still manage to carve out their own identity?

The skimpy garment was strikingly similar to one Cindy, 59, wore when she attended Revlon's Unforgettable Women event in New York City back in 1990

Of course, this isn't the first time we've seen Kaia channel her inner supermodel mom. The duo has been killing it in the fashion world together, with Kaia landing coveted gigs and Cindy sharing her wisdom as a veteran of the industry. But what's even more fascinating is the way they've managed to bridge the gap between parent and child, turning their professional relationship into a genuine friendship.

A MOTHER-DAUGHTER DREAM TEAM

In an exclusive chat with People, Kaia opened up about working alongside her mom, revealing that it's not just about business – it's about bonding. "I do feel like we've established a really strong bond and friendship outside of just a mother-daughter dynamic," she gushed. And Cindy couldn't agree more! The Peabody Award-winning actress dished, "We went to Burning Man together... We both love reading, sharing podcasts... Yeah, it's a lot of talking about what books we're reading."

A PERFECT PARENTESS

But don't think for a second that this dynamic duo doesn't have their quirks. Kaia confessed, "She is a cool mom and she still embarrasses me constantly... But it's good! It brings me back down to earth..." And Cindy isn't immune either – they both agreed that they probably embarrass each other just as much! Who knew being a model-mom duo could be so relatable?

FUTURE PROJECTS ON THE HORIZON

Cindy became one of the world's most popular supermodels in the 80s and 90s and Kaia has been following in her footsteps ever since (pictured in 1990)

As Kaia continues to make waves in the entertainment industry, with roles in American Horror Story and the upcoming dark comedy Shell (2024), we can't help but wonder what other exciting projects she has on the horizon. Meanwhile, Cindy is keeping busy as an ambassador for Omega watches – because when you're a supermodel, you need something to keep your watch-obsessed self occupied!
