- Kaia made her Fashion Month debut in New York and has since traveled to London and Milan to walk in several different shows; she will then go on to Paris
Kaia Gerber has a great deal to celebrate, having cemented her status as one of the world's new supermodels-in-the-making - and is seems as though the 16-year-old couldn't resist the chance to toast her incredible success on the catwalk.
The teenage daughter of Cindy Crawford was pictured sitting with a half-drunk glass of Champagne at a Milan Fashion Week dinner, shortly after strutting her stuff on the Versace catwalk, along with her famous model mother - who was also in attendance at the VIP dinner.
In an image posted to Instagram by a friend, Kaia can be seen sitting by herself at the end of a rather lavish-looking banquet table, posing with her arm draped across the back of a chair - with a half-empty glass of Champagne sitting in front of her next to some bread rolls.

The image, shared by lifestyle broadcaster Derek Blasberg, was simply captioned: 'Please pass the salt @kaiagerber,' but made no reference to the alcohol drink pictured - which Kaia was not seen drinking.

While there are a few other people visible in the very background of the photo, it appears to have been taken before the start of what was certainly a very decadent dinner - while the drinks reception was still in full swing.
Despite her young age, Kaia looks every inch the style queen in the picture, wearing a stunning beaded dress that featured an intricate woven dark grey pattern over a sheer nude slip-style dress.
Milan would be the perfect place for Kaia to raise a glass of fizz or two to her own Fashion Month debut, as the legal drinking age for fermented beverages like wine and beer is 16.
Even by Italian standards, however, Kaia has only just reached the required age, having only celebrated her 16th birthday last month, a few weeks before she made her Fashion Week debut on the catwalk for Calvin Klein's show in New York.
In her home state of California, however, the legal drinking age for any form of alcohol is 21 - and Kaia has another five years to go before reaching that limit.
DailyMail.com has contacted Kaia's spokesperson for comment.

Superstar: It has been an incredibly successful few weeks for Kaia, who made her fashion week debut in New York earlier this month, just weeks after her 16th birthday
The teen's attendance at the Versace dinner - which she was seen arriving at with her mother Cindy - comes just hours after the duo both appeared on the catwalk for the high-end brand.
And while Cindy has had a relatively low-key Fashion Month as far as the catwalks are concerned, it has been an incredibly hectic few weeks for young Kaia, who has walked in shows for almost every major brand, from Calvin Klein and Alexander Wang in New York, to Burberry in London, to Versace, Moschino, and Prada in Milan - to name but a few.
Certainly, the teenager has plenty to celebrate, having seen her appearances in all of the shows widely praised by fashion critics around the globe.
Numerous industry insiders have hailed her as one of her generation's 'supermodels', placing her alongside much more experienced models like Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, whom she has now modeled with on numerous occasions - including this Versace show.
But while it was Kaia's first time walking for the label in any fashion show, unlike her mother, who has been firm favorite of Versace's since the 90s - an era which was celebrated at the end of the show, when Cindy and her fellow supermodels from that time closed out the runway event to rapturous applause.

Cindy, along with Carla Bruni, Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell, and Helena Christensen, appeared at the end of the show wearing coordinating gold dresses, much to the delight of everyone present - from models to guests.
And the mother-of-two, whose son Presley is also a model, once again looked effortlessly ageless as she arrived at the dinner alongside her daughter, wearing the same dazzling metallic dress that she had been seen wearing on the runway, and was carrying a sleek silver clutch bag.
Once again showing off her incredible resemblance to her mother, Kaia looked mature beyond her years as she made her way into the glittering fashion event, having certainly earned her stripes as one of the industry's elite over the past few weeks.
The event was also attended by several of the mother-daughter-duo's fellow catwalk stars, including Gigi and Bella Hadid - who brought along their mother Yolanda - as well as Kendall, whose mom Kris was also in attendance at the show.
