Kaia said of her supermodel mum, 56: “I won’t deny the privilege that I have.
"Even if it’s just the fact that I have a really great source of information and someone to give me great advice, that alone I feel very fortunate for.
“My mom always joked, ‘If I could call and book a Chanel campaign, it would be for me and not you.’

“But I also have met amazing people through my mom whom I now get to work with.”
Kaia has recently collaborated with high street staple Zara for her own affordable range.
She said of the collection: “I really wanted to centre it around the idea of, if I just packed this.
"I just wanted it to be the best of the basics”
