Kaia Gerber lands modeling contract at age 13

LOS ANGELES, July 10 (UPI) -- Kaia Gerber landed a modeling contract this week at age 13.

The teenage daughter of supermodel Cindy Crawford signed with IMG Models following her editorial debut in the July issue of Vogue Italia. The company announced the news Wednesday, writing, "NOW REPRESENTING: @KaiaGerber. Welcome to the family!"

Gerber and her mom both shared photos from the shoot on Instagram, with the teenager marveling, "UNREAL." Crawford joked, "Guess I better watch my back... Love this shot of @KaiaGerber by #StevenMeisel for @VogueItalia!"

Gerber previously starred in a Young Versace campaign in 2012, and appeared in Teen Vogue in 2014. She told the magazine at the time, "[My mom] doesn't want me to start a career too young. She started modeling when she was 16, but that world is very different now."

Gerber is the youngest child of Crawford and businessman and former model Rande Gerber. The couple married in May 1998, and are also parents to 16-year-old son Presley. Gerber and her brother, an aspiring photographer, often stage shoots together to post on Instagram.
