Kaia Gerber’s new campaign with Chanel is causing some controversy.
The daughter of Cindy Crawford took the fashion industry by storm when she turned 16 in September. She made her show season debut for Calvin Klein at the spring-summer 2018 shows.
16 is the legal limit for models walking on the catwalk, but according to critics on social media that should not reflect an appropriate age for some of the more provocative modelling shoots.
Chanel’s new campaign with Gerber is being accused of “sexualizing” the teen model. The most controversial image from Chanel features Gerber wearing a short, tweed mini dress while reclining on a couch.
Gerber is currently signed to IMG Models.
