Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber are arguably the most iconic mother-daughter duo in Hollywood, and a recent photo of the 24-year-old model and actress has solidified their uncanny resemblance.
The two were spotted at the red carpet premiere of Kaia's new drama series, The Shards, in New York City on Monday night, with Kaia channelling the 1980s in a stunning Valentino sheer column gown.
The dress featured spaghetti straps and a beaded diamond pattern, inspired by the high glam of the decade, but with a sleek contemporary feel.
Kaia's outfit, combined with her voluminous, sideswept hair, smoky eyes, and glossy lip, left many fans having to do a double-take, with some even mistaking her for a younger Cindy Crawford.
The Shards official Instagram account shared footage of the night, and was quickly flooded with comments about the strong genes clearly at play, with many calling Kaia an "icon in the making."
But Kaia's resemblance to her mother isn't a new phenomenon - the two have been turning heads with their identical looks for years.
One of the most striking examples of their similarity can be seen in a photo from the LACMA Art+Film Gala at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where Kaia and Cindy attended together in 2025.
While Kaia wore a shimmering red halter dress and a middle parting, and Cindy wore a sequinned Bardot neckline number and a side parting, both looked eerily alike, from the way they posed to the texture of their brunette locks.
Another instance of their identical looks can be seen in a photo from the opening night of OMEGA House Paris in 2024, where they posed together in matching black ensembles.
In this image, it's clear how identical the pair's bone structure and features are, especially in terms of jawline, cheekbones, nose, and lips.
Even as a younger teen, Kaia was often mistaken for her mother, with a photo from 2019 showing the pair posing together at the Women's Guild Cedars-Sinai annual luncheon at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel.
At just 17 years old, Kaia was already attending high-profile work events with her mum, and it's clear that she's grown more and more confident in her own skin.
Looking back at photos from the past few years, it's striking to see how much Kaia has grown into her own identity, while still maintaining a strong resemblance to her mother.
From the British Fashion Awards in 2018, where Kaia won model of the year at just 17 years old, to the 2018 Best Buddies Mother's Day Brunch Hosted by Vanessa & Gina Hudgens, Kaia has been turning heads with her fashion sense and striking features.
And while Kaia has certainly carved out her own successful career, it's clear that she'll always be compared to her mother, the iconic Cindy Crawford.
