Kaia Gerber, Cindy Crawford's Daughter, Lands Major Fashion Campaign

📷💋

Earlier this week, our hearts broke as iconic supermodel Cindy Crawford announced that she would be hanging up her heels, so to speak, and retiring from the modeling industry

But it looks like the fashion gods decided to soften the blow, because on Thursday morning, Crawford's 14-year-old progeny, Kaia Gerber, landed her first major fashion campaign.

Gerber posed like a pro in front of the camera for Chrome Hearts' spring/summer 2016 campaign and proved that modeling really is in her genes. Though we've seen the young teen in the public eye before -- she has starred in a few editorials -- this gig really solidifies the IMG model as a force to be reckoned with in the modeling biz. Here's hoping Kaia's career is as long as her mother's.
