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 the 36 years between them, what is surprising, however, it just how similar their taste in style is. Attending an event in Paris over the weekend, both models opted to style the same ageless dress—selecting chic black dresses for the evening occasion.

With subtle differences that spoke to their own personal style, Gerber selected her sleeveless LBD in a shorter length with an elegant sweetheart neckline. Pairing her minidress with burgundy Gucci slingbacks, the model kept her look 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 style fell below her knees and included a timeless cowl neck design. Accessorising with The Row’s Mel clutch bag (£1350) and a pair of strappy slingbacks, the model also kept her jewellery 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 spoke 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.
