Back in the ’90s and early 2000s, the world’s top supermodels ruled runways, perfume ads, and magazine covers. Their names were everywhere symbols of effortless glamour and unattainable beauty. Now, a new generation is stepping into the spotlight: their daughters. Some have inherited their mother’s striking looks and catwalk confidence; others have taken a different path. Are they destined to outshine their famous moms, or forever walk in their shadow? Take a look at the most iconic model-mother duos and decide for yourself who rules the new era of beauty.
Cindy Crawford & Kaia Gerber
Cindy Crawford’s beauty mark and perfect cheekbones made her an icon of the ‘90s supermodel era. Fast forward, and her daughter Kaia Gerber is following in her footsteps—sometimes literally, as they’ve walked the runway together! Kaia inherited her mom’s striking features and tall, lean frame, but she’s also carved out her own edgy, Gen Z fashion identity. They often appear side by side at events, turning every red carpet into a mother-daughter style showdown. Cindy has said seeing Kaia on magazine covers gives her “deja vu”—and the resemblance is uncanny. Fashion insiders love comparing their early campaigns, and both are known for their humble, down-to-earth attitudes behind the scenes. The verdict: beauty really does run in the family!
