Kaia Gerber takes to the runway for JW Anderson's LFW show… as Iris Law and Alexa Chung attend


She’s currently in the midst of a decidedly busy Fashion Month, having walked in a series of fashion presentations during the recently concluded New York Fashion Week.

And Kaia Gerber, 18, was seen pressing on her with her modelling duties on British shores on Monday, as she took to the runway for JW Anderson’s London Fashion Week A/W ’20 show, held at Yeomanry House.

The star commanded attention as she strode before the audience – which included Iris Law and Alexa Chung – in a high-waisted black skirt and a grey knitted sweater, topped with a silver tinsel-inspired embellishment.

Kaia, daughter of veteran supermodel Cindy Crawford, wore her brunette locks in a choppy bob with a side parting, while her makeup was kept light with a series of natural tones. 

Undergoing an outfit change during the show, the teen model also stepped out in an oversized black coat, which she paired with matching trousers.

Iris, 19, also put on a striking sartorial display, arriving at the event in a floaty yellow sleeveless dress, which featured an asymmetrical hemline and was teamed with silver shoes and thick jewelled necklace.

Wearing her glossy brown locks in shoulder-length waves with a centre-parting, the daughter of Jude Law and Sadie Frost complemented her looks with makeup that included bold and rich tones.

For her part, 36-year-old Alexa looked sensational in a black sleeveless dress, which featured white piping around the bosom and side torso cutouts with gold embellishments.

Teaming her gown with black lattice heels, the star wore her chestnut brown locks in shoulder-length curls, while she opted to largely forgo accessories. 

The glamorous stars mingled with a host of famous faces at the event, including singer Charlie XCX, BAFTA-winning actor Micheal Ward, actor Billy Porter, rapper Eve, and Sex Education star Ncuti Gatwa.

Once New York Fashion Week had concluded, Kaia was spotted jetting out of the Big Apple on Friday, in preparation for hitting Europe’s runways. 

The star’s latest Fashion Week comes in the wake of the launch of new capsule collection for spring/summer 2020 with Jimmy Choo.

‘Kaia is a modern supermodel, she represents the archetypal Jimmy Choo muse for a new era,’ the brand’s creative director Sandra Choi said on its website

‘Off the catwalk Kaia has a signature personal style that is the epitome of effortless cool,’ added Sandra, who is Jimmy’s niece.

Kaia will be giving away 15 per cent of the collection’s proceeds to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, describing the charity as ‘closely connected to my family.’

A few years ago Cindy worked with St. Jude on a Dream Home Giveaway where participants bought in for $100 for a chance to win a house.

‘I know firsthand what it’s like to lose a family member to this terrible disease, which is why I’m so committed to St. Jude’s mission,’ said Cindy, who was 10 when her younger brother died of lymphoblastic leukemia, according to PR Newswire.

Kaia recently split from Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson, 26, who according to an E! News insider withdrew from the relationship ‘to work on his mental health.’
