Cindy Crawford’s daughter Kaia Gerber makes modeling debut

by helbard
Getting young models in the industry is nothing new, but I can’t imagine the amount of pressure this girl has to go through.  Below is the article from CBS News:

(CBS) Cindy Crawford’s daughter is following in her model footsteps.

10-year-old Kaia Gerber is making her modeling debut as the face of Young Versace, the fashion house’s line for children ages 0-12.

“Like her mother, Kaia has a very special gift,” Donatella Versace said in a press release.

Crawford added, “I’m so thrilled that Kaia was chosen to be part of the first Young Versace campaign. I have so many fond memories of the times I spent with Gianni and Donatella.”

In the photo, Gerber strikes a pose in a black skirt, white shirt and leather jacket, with her long brown hair (which she seems to have inherited from her mother) swept over one shoulder.

Crawford has been married to Rande Gerber since 1998. They are also parents to 12-year-old son Pressley.
