Before the public conversation around his health and recovery, Presley Gerber had already built a recognizable modeling career of his own. He entered fashion as a teenager, signed with IMG Models at 15 and made an early runway appearance for Moschino.
Starting Young
Gerber was born in California in 1999 and grew up in a family already connected to fashion. His mother, Cindy Crawford, was one of the most recognizable models of her generation. His sister Kaia later entered modeling too.
Runway and Campaign Work
Current biographical reporting credits Gerber with work involving Moschino, Dolce & Gabbana, Calvin Klein, Celine and Tommy Hilfiger. His runway and editorial appearances placed him inside the international fashion system that had shaped his mother’s career decades earlier.
More Than a Famous Last Name
Family connections made Gerber newsworthy, but his own career included runway work, campaigns and fashion-media appearances. His early Moschino runway work became one of the recognizable markers of his modeling path.
The Career He Leaves Behind
Gerber’s death at 27 cuts short a career that was still evolving. His public legacy now sits at the intersection of fashion, celebrity family history and his later willingness to discuss mental health and recovery.
