Kaia Gerber Channels Mom Cindy Crawford in Striking Black Look at ‘The Shards’ Event
It’s giving Cindy Crawford 2.0.
Kaia Gerber Cindy Crawford comparisons are heating up once again. The 24-year-old actress channeled her supermodel mom at a Los Angeles event for FX’s The Shards, stepping out in a striking all-black Gucci ensemble.
Gerber wore a black bralette-style top with a matching sheer maxi skirt, creating a look that immediately reminded fans of Crawford’s iconic ’90s style. Her loose waves and understated makeup added to the retro-inspired vibe.
The fashion resemblance was especially noticeable because Crawford wore a similar black ensemble to the 1996 premiere of Striptease. The latest look has once again sparked conversation about just how much Gerber resembles her famous mother.
Kaia Gerber’s Cindy Crawford Fashion Moment
The latest look is particularly reminiscent of a black crop-top-and-trousers outfit Crawford wore to the 1996 premiere of Striptease. Crawford was 30 at the time, making the fashion connection especially noticeable.
Gerber has repeatedly embraced dark, minimalist looks while promoting The Shards. During the press tour, she has appeared in a range of black ensembles, including a sheer ruffled gown in London and a sleek slip dress in New York that sparked comparisons to Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy’s famously minimalist style.
She also coordinated with Crawford in black for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s July wedding, giving fans another memorable mother-daughter fashion moment.
Kaia Gerber Has Her Own Take on the Family Resemblance
Although fans frequently point out the resemblance between Gerber and Crawford, Gerber herself has been more modest about the comparisons.
In a recent interview with Yahoo Entertainment, she said it is an honor when people tell her she looks like her mother, adding that she wishes she did and joking that even on her best days, she doesn’t think she comes close.
Still, the latest The Shards appearance makes the Crawford connection hard for fans to miss. From the dark color palette to the retro-inspired styling, Gerber continues to find ways to nod to fashion eras associated with her mom while creating her own modern red-carpet identity.
