A SUPERMODEL IN THE MAKING
Long brown hair and deep dark eyes, striking cheekbones and a big, heartfelt smile: Kaia is definitely a supermodel in the making. Only 17 years old, Kaia has a natural confidence and self-assured sense of style that has enabled her to create an impact on the global fashion community.

The face of a new generation of fashion stars, Kaia forges her own path, and with a social media following of 3.8 million, is already at the vanguard of fashion’s new landscape.
“I think these days, everything you do has to be measured with a degree of responsibility. If there are people who view me as a role model, I really hope to be able to create positive images and messages that inspire others to feel confident about the way they look, to look after themselves, and basically to be kind to themselves”, declares Kaia.
She represents a new youthful image that is both playful and edgy. Her growing independence coupled with an innate confidence makes her aspirational as a modern-day girl, doing things her own way. Whether she’s photographed by paparazzi while on holiday with her family, or pounding the runways with the fashion elite, she’s her own person, a young woman shaping her destiny, and inspiring others to do the same.
