Upon turning 16 in September 2017, Kaia Gerber wasted no time in making her mark on the international runway scene.

Just four days after reaching the legal age limit for models to walk on the catwalk, Gerber - who is the daughter of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber - made her runway debut at the Calvin Klein show during New York Fashion Week.

Not stopping there, Gerber went on to walk for Alexander Wang, Coach, Marc Jacobs and Rihanna's Fenty Puma before dominating the international catwalks of London, Milan and Paris.

The 18-year-old's first fashion season even saw her walk in the same show as her mother, as Versace put on an iconic showcase in memory of Gianni Versace, which saw a whole host of the originals return to the catwalk.

Gerber made her Couture Fashion Week debut in January 2018 for Chanel, before being snapped up by Valentino.

Meanwhile, her face has been pretty much everywhere during the current autumn/winter 2020 season, having walked for the likes of Givenchy, Versace and Alexander McQueen last night.

Her off-duty look has blossomed alongside her lucrative modelling career, as she has established her own quirky take on nineties androgyny.

The model relies on a handful of key staples to perfect her look including trench coats, oversized blazers, skintight trousers and stomper boots (the footwear order of the season, FYI.) Not forgetting her newly-cut blunt bob, which is proof that this season's hottest hair trend is most definitely "less is more."
