Inside Presley Gerber's Modeling Career: from Famous Family to Fashion Runwaysにまつわる最新トピックを詳しく紐解きます。

Presley Gerber, son of supermodel Cindy Crawford and businessman Rande Gerber, didn’t exactly have a “normal” adolescence—if hanging out with Mom on magazine covers counts as normal. By age 16, he was already signed with IMG Models, the same agency that reps his sister Kaia. (Yes, the family that poses together, stays together—or competes for the same campaigns, you know?)

But here’s the kicker: being a “nepo baby” in modeling is a double-edged sword. On one hand, you get instant attention; on the other, you’ve got to prove you’re more than just a genetic lottery winner. Presley’s first major gig? Walking for Moschino at Milan Fashion Week in 2016. The irony? He was terrified. “I was shaking backstage,” he later admitted. Relatable, right?

The Fast Track (and the Speed Bumps)

His early career was a blur of high-end shows: Dolce & Gabbana, Balmain, and a sweet campaign for Versace alongside his mom. But let’s be real—walking the runways of Milan and Paris is like winning the fashion lottery, but the pressure is crushing. He once told Vogue that he felt like he was “living in my mom’s shadow,” which is a weird feeling when your mom is literally the face of 90s fashion.

Then came the tattoo phase. Remember when Presley started covering his face with ink? A cross under his eye, “Misunderstood” on his cheek—it was a loud statement that screamed, “I’m not just a pretty rich kid.” Critics roasted him, but honestly? It was a power move. He was reclaiming his narrative, even if it meant alienating conservative fashion houses.
