Kaia Gerber is youngest model to ever win Model of the Year

Kaia Gerber has won the prestigious Model of the Year Award at the 2018 British Fashion Awards, becoming the youngest model to do so at the age of just 17.

Kaia, who has only been modelling for a year, wore an outfit by late British designer Alexander McQueen to accept her award.

She beat off the likes of Bella Hadid, Adwoa Aboah and Adut Akech to take the crown, which has previously been won by the likes of Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne.

And if you think there's something familiar about Kaia, you're correct. Her famous mother and one time model Cindy Crawford was on hand to watch her pick up the gong.

You can see what she had to say in her acceptance speech in the video above.
