Move over beauties!
While one belongs from the music industry, the other is from the fashion world. But both are famous in their respective fields and can also be named as the ‘Queen of Pop’ and ‘Queen of Modelling’. We betcha you must have guessed whom we are talking about – the ever-in-the-news Pop Queen Madonna and the gorgeous ramp-walk Queen Cindy Crawford. But today it’s not these Queens we are going to talk about, as It’s time to more over beauties and let your ‘mini-you’ take the fashion world with storm.
Though ‘Mommy Pop’ has this uncanny habit of coming into the news very often (recently with her bizarre behavior with a fan on stage), this time it is the daughter of the controversial yet immensely popular star, the 19-year old Lourdes ‘Lola’ Leon who has been in the news with her fat fragrant modelling contract.
Stella McCartney, who also happens to be a good friend of Lola’s mommy, announced very recently that the 19-year-old will front her new ‘Pop’ perfume campaign, which will be Stella’s first new fragrance in four years. In the past Lola has always shied away from the media (strange, as Madonna loves the media) and this campaign will mark her first willing venture into the public eye.
In music and fashion scenario, we really aren’t saying anything about nepotism here (given the fact mommy is friends with the designer), but it is said that Lola agreed to the campaign as she loved the message it is sending ‘which is to promote self-acceptance and positive mutual support, a conscious counterbalance to the potentially negative world of social media.’
“I go through this struggle myself, [where] women’s bodies have been made so public that everyone feels like they need to comment,” Leon told Vogue of the resonance she felt with Pop’s be-true-to-yourself message of individuality.
“I love when someone doesn’t pretend to be someone they are not,” she added. Soon after, proud mommy shared a snap on Instagram of the lilac- haired Lola posing on the shoot.
Another beaming mommy is Cindy Crawford whose little mirror-image daughter, Kaia Gerber, is finally ready to sail and rock the modelling world. The 14 year old got her first major campaign just days after Cindy’s joke about retiring at the age of 50. We last saw Cindy in the Pepsi commercial and she absolutely looked stunning.
Back to Kaia, she is going to be the face of the high-end rocker-chic label ‘Chrome Hearts’ in its upcoming Spring/Summer campaign, marking the 14-year-old’s first fashion campaign since signing with IMG Models last year.
Kaia in the past has also posed for Vogue, Teen Vogue, and CR Fashion Book. Kaia looks totally pro in the new images, which see her posing in the brand’s accessories. Widely known for its edgy accessories, Chrome Hearts has also been worn by the likes of Karl Lagerfeld and Rihanna. Laurie Lynn Stark, co-founder of Chrome Hearts, is a good friend of Cindy Crawford and is also a professional photographer who has shot Cindy in the past. Laurie, who has known Kaia since she was a little kid, said it was a ‘privilege’ to have watched her ‘blossom’.
Indeed it must have been. With the next generation debuting in the glamour world, it makes us feel so happy and proud and at the same time old and grumpy (huff!).
Good luck to both the gorgeous daughters and we can’t wait to see more of them. What say you?
