Kaia Gerber is the spitting image of her mother Cindy Crawford, and has inherited her prowess on the runway.

So its no wonder the model paid homage to her mum on her 18th birthday.

Kaia found time in the middle of New York Fashion Week to celebrate her birthday with a quirky party at New Yorks Edition Hotel.

And she was seriously embodying the 90s supermodel vibes – despite the fact that she was born in 2001.

The model wore an updated replica of the Versace dress her mum wore to the 1992 MTV Video Music Awards, and we cant decide who wore it best. Lets say its a tie.

Kaias Versace look took the sheer bodice with bondage-style belts from her mums original look and threw in a studded leather mini-skirt with a gold belt and knee-high black and gold gladiator heels.

The star also probably used a crate of hairspray to tease her hair into the incredible bouffant do she was rocking.

Kaia finished off the look with a dramatic cat eye and some Blue Steel, as she headed into the venue.

Meanwhile, Cindy decided not to twin with her lookalike this time around, choosing instead to embody Cher circa Studio 54.

The 53-year-old wore a gold boiler suit, paired with a metallic beaded wig, as she entered the hotel with husband Rande Gerber, who kept things more low key in a cowboy-style shirt.

Wheres the glitter, Rande?

Original supermodel Cindy passed her really, really ridiculously good-looking genes onto both Kaia and 20-year-old son Presley, with both kids breaking into modelling.

And it looks like Kaia could be as successful as her mother, modelling for Versace, Chanel, Calvin Klein, Prada, Burberry, Marc Jacobs, Coach, Fendi, Moschino and Alexander Wang, creating a collection with Karl Lagerfeld, and becoming the face of Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume.

She was even named Model of the Year aged just 17 last year at the Fashion Awards.

So its no wonder she feels a bit older than 18.
