10 Model Sisters Who Are Doin' It for Themselves


Christmas may be over, but Love Magazine's sexy video advent calendar is still going strong. Saturday's clip stars none other than Bella Hadid—who you'll probably recognize as 2014-breakout-model Gigi Hadid's younger sister (and who also looks SO much like Jennifer Lawrence, no?).

Models are generally considered to have been genetically gifted in the looks department—so it's only logical that their siblings should have the same good fortune, and potentially follow in their career footsteps. It's proof that sharing with your kid sis isn't always the worst!
Scroll through for 10 sets of model sisters who have made a mark on the fashion scene with their fam by their side.

Gigi and Bella Hadid

Gigi had a HUGE 2014, what with her Sports Illustrated swimsuit spread, various mag covers, and a Tom Ford eyewear campaign. But 2015 looks like it could be little sister Bella's year: She just signed with IMG Models in August.

Poppy and Cara Delevingne
Poppy has snagged campaigns for huge names like Burberry and Louis Vuitton. Her little sister Cara has the world's most famous eyebrows. 'Nuff said.

Kate and Lottie Moss
16-year-old newcomer Lottie Moss is a full-time student who was signed to Storm Model Management when she was only 13 and already has a Red Valentino campaign under her belt. Her half-sister Kate is... Kate Moss.

Langley Fox and Dree Hemingway
Dree has spent several seasons stomping the runways of fashion week, while Langley has one ads for Just Cavalli and Ferragamo. Both ladies and worked with Free People—sharing is caring, people.

Lily and Ruby Aldridge
Lily's a Victoria's Secret Angel. Ruby has done work for Valentino and Marc by Marc Jacobs. Fun fact: Their mom, Laura Lyons, was a Playboy Playmate in 1976!

Olympia and Edie Campbell

Edie has appeared in campaigns for pretty much EVERYONE—from Dior to Lanvin to Burberry, Saint Laurent to Louis Vuitton—and was named Model of the Year at the 2013 British Fashion Awards. Her younger sis Olympia is catching up, having walked for LV, Sonia Rykiel, Chanel, Fendi, and more this past September.

Missy and Frankie Rayder
In the late '90s and early '00s, the Rayder sisters were everywhere. Big sis Frankie served as the face of Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, and Versace. Missy has shown up in campaigns for Gaultier, Prada, and Moschino. They also did a Gap ad together. Aw!

Georgia May and Lizzy Jagger
When your parents are Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall, becoming a model seems like kind of a given. Lizzy has starred in ads for Mango and Tommy Hilfigger, while the younger Georgia May has been the face of Chanel, Rimmel, and H&M.

Niki and Krissy Taylor
Niki was one of the biggest supermodels of the '90s as the face of CoverGirl. Her younger sister Krissy was on track for similar success after walking for shows like Ralph Lauren—but sadly, she died at 17 of an apparent cardiac disease complication.

Immy and Suki Waterhouse
It-girl Suki has been a Burberry fav for several seasons, and has recently ventured into acting. Her younger sis Immy just signed to Next Model Management in November—and we wouldn't be surprised if she's just as successful.


Gisele Bundchen Is Barefoot in Paris for New Chanel Campaign

Chanel can make anything—even walking barefoot through grime-y city streets—seem chic. Case in point? Karl Lagerfeld's spring 2015 campaign for the maison, starring Gisele Bündchen.
Lagerfeld photographed Bündchen wandering the deserted streets of Saint Germain-des-Prés, pausing at iconic locations like...
Café de Flore, a spot you'll find packed with fashion editors during Paris fashion week.

A LOOK AT ANGELINA JOLIE'S OSCAR-COURTING OUTFIT CHOICES

Can what Angelina Jolie wears influence whether the Academy nominates Unbroken for an Oscar (and Angie for directing it)? The New York Times—whose Vanessa Friedman writes that Angie's recent "seriousness of wardrobe" has been "strategic"—seems to think so. Here, click through to see the "muted colors; classic shapes; skirts that are strict, straight and to the knee; pumps, never platforms; long sleeves," and more simple, streamlined pieces that Angie's worn as she's been "shaping her image in pursuit of her goal."
