Kaia Gerber is the spitting image of mum Cindy Crawford as she struts down the catwalk at Paris Fashion Week

KAIA takes it higher as she wears a pair of tiny shorts with a fitting black waistcoat and knee-high boots.

Kaia Gerber, 18, strutted her stuff with fellow icon Naomi Campbell, 49, and surely made her model mum Cindy Crawford, 53, proud who was sat in the front row.

Kaia has clearly followed in mum Cindy Crawford’s footsteps, who also wowed in a pair of statement boots and a black mini dress at a Milan show in 1991[/caption]

And she certainly brought back memories of her mum, who has strutted down plenty of catwalks throughout her career.

With her genes it’s no surprise Kaia’s a runway success.

The 18-year-old dominated the Saint Laurent catwalk at Paris Fashion Week wearing a black ensemble broken up with a tanned YSL shoulder bag.

Earlier this week, the supermodels attending Paris Fashion Week donned all black again to pay tribute to fashion photographer, Peter Lindburgh – who died aged 74.

“Thank you for everything you taught me.

“An irreplaceable light in everyone’s life.”
