Kaia Gerber Is Karl Lagerfeld's Latest Muse For CHANEL's Mermaid Bags

If you couldn’t tell by now, we love CHANEL. Last week, they announced a partnership with Farfetch to improve their in-boutique services, so we can better shop their latest COCO CODE watch and SS18 ready-to-wear collection. If there’s anything about their Spring-Summer line-up that could transform us into water-sprite-lookalikes, it’s their monochromatic and crystal clear treasures. And fronting their ad campaign this season for these pearls of the sea is none other than breakout supermodel Kaia Gerber, daughter of 90’s Vogue-cover veteran Cindy Crawford.

The idea of being a celebrity’s daughter and a model in the age of social media can feel nauseating because, nepotism, but there’s a different vibe with Gerber that we’re sure attracted her to creative director Karl Lagerfeld. Even in her debut appearance in the Alexander Wang SS18 ready-to-wear show, there was an air of confidence around her that was palpable. And, wow, have you seen old pictures of Cindy Crawford — the two look like twins! Since then, the princess has become a hot-ticket at other shows like Fendi, Versace, and Calvin Klein, among many others.

CHANEL SS18 Lunchbox, Gabrielle and 2.5 Flag Bags

We’ve raved enough about the CHANEL SS18 accessories. The PVC yellow, green and pink 2.5 Flap Bag resembles a Gabrielle several seasons before, which our stylist Josiah aptly compared to the Pokemon Weepinbell:
