As far as mother-daughter duos go, there are few others that can claim such a great influence over the fashion industry as Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber. With cumulative decades worth of time in the industry, the pair have both fronted some of the biggest campaigns out there. Having spent so much time in fashion’s inner circle, it’s no surprise that the two have honed excellent taste along the way.
With 36 years between them, what is surprising, however, is just how similar their style preferences are. Attending an event in Paris over the weekend, both models opted to wear the same ageless item, selecting chic black dresses for the evening occasion they attended together.
With subtle differences that spoke to their own personal tastes, Gerber chose her strappy LBD in a shorter length with an elegant sweetheart neckline. Pairing her black dress with burgundy Gucci slingback shoes, the model kept her outfit minimal and sleek, selecting only a few simple jewels and an elegant watch to complete her look.
Also choosing a sleeveless black dress, Crawford’s iteration fell below her knees and included a sophisticated cowl neckline. Accessorizing with The Row’s Mel clutch bag ($1450) and a pair of strappy sandals, the supermodel also kept her jewelry to a minimum, selecting a single paper chain necklace and small gold hoops.
With access to endless designer options and countless new-season buys, the duo’s choice speaks to the enduring appeal of a little black dress. Versatile, flattering and so easy style, the classic buy is a wardrobe staple for a reason.
